@LZIp Looks like he may have put on a few more lbs already. 

I somehow missed this offer. In any case, here is his Rival’s profile and his senior film is attached.

Can't find much on him, but he's 6'7" (!!!!) and played TE as well in HS, despite being listed as a DL.

STeele Wasel's HS teammate. Should be a walk on:

Big. Even as a walk-on, I think this is a valuable add. He and Wasel have amazing chemistry. He'll be an asset to the WR room to help everyone learn Wasel's tendencies.

I recall when Charlie Frye came to UA, his best HS receiver came along for a couple years. I don't think he ever played, but I'm sure having a familiar face from his hometown come to Akron was nice. 

 

Smith seems like an athlete. The coaches wouldn't bring him half way across the country if they didn't feel he could be a player one day. I look forward to seeing what he's got to offer.

Looks like he's originally from Germany. Had an offer from Hawaii and a few other FCS schools

This makes more sense.

Chrome got updated but the Twitter embeds still don't show (phone AND PC).

 

The "NEXT" and "PREV" also still don't work.

 

It's like listening in on one end of a phone conversation.

We are working on a server upgrade that is required in order to download the latest invision software. Hope it is completed within the next few days. 
 

Your next two months of ZipsNation are on the house. 😉

Looks like a real stud. Spriggs, along with Joshua Bowen, gives this class what really appears to be two top shelf LB's.

Finally getting the size we need at LB at the FBS level. Can't wait to see these two along with Griffin, McCoy and Fish as our LB rotation over the next few years. It's great that Bubba will be back one more season so that they can all learn from him.

Surprising to see us take on what appears to be 3 additional scholarship high school players yesterday. I saw a few other recent offers put out and with Lewis leaving at Kent, a few other guys might be under second consideration as well.

 

This would either mean we are taking on less transfer portal players than one would think or there are more players leaving we don't know about. I hope its the latter, as I like what we are bringing in for the future, but we need more experienced help now.

This is what everyone thinks, and some really good HS players get left out when the music stops. If the staff deems these guys talented enough to pass on a couple short term fixes, I'm all for it.
