Blue & Gold Posted February 4, 2015 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 It's nice to see UA holding on to quite a few guys from the 2014 class via prep school or otherwise (Boxen, Junius, Williams, Wilson) - too many of these recruits in past years never made it back into the program.+1.Let's hope Anthony Clark makes it back next year.

Balsy Posted February 4, 2015 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 So does that mean Boxen didn't redshirt last year and instead will enter this season as a true-freshman? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zippyfan34 Posted February 4, 2015 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 So Boxen did what D'Orazio did many years ago. He didn't enroll in school that first fall after high school graduation, thus not starting his 5 years to play 4 years clock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyzip84 Posted February 4, 2015 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 Article on Commitments and "Flipping"There is some good info in there. A couple of things come to mind:You can't play by yesterday's rules and expect to get your fair share of commits. I hope Pittman uses the following quote for some off-season motivation.Presumably, Pittman is where he belongs — Akron, where he transferred after a redshirt year at Ohio State — and Michigan State now has joined the fray.

Balsy Posted February 4, 2015 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 It's called a"grey shirt". I didn't realize he was a grey shirt. He was on the roster I thought, but then he wasn't. Thanks for clearing it up.Side note: At the conclusion of business hours I will have an updated roster for all to see! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
