Believe we also have a few JUCO guys committed that aren’t yet on the roster as well. Quote

Believe we also have a few JUCO guys committed that aren’t yet on the roster as well. He may be a walk-on, but it’s also possible they just haven’t released his official commitment post yet. If he is a walk-on, he’ll probably be one of the better ones we’ve picked up. I think we’ve added three DTs so far, including the two JUCOs. We still need at least one or two more. All things considered, I like what the new DL coach has done so far with the resources we have. Quote
Blue & Gold Posted April 29 Author Report Posted April 29 I must've missed the DL transfer from Dayton. Link? Bio? X post? Quote

LZIp Posted May 1 Report Posted May 1 (edited) Looks like we signed our #2 QB/Bullock replacement. Guy has been around since 2019! Edited May 1 by LZIp 2 Quote

At least we know Joe's system now and can have realistic expectations for Michael Johnson Jr. When Bullock committed and played, we were so confused and ultimately disappointed in year 1 with his throwing ability, not realizing he was brought in to be an under-center running back. 3 Quote
Let'sGoZips94 Posted May 1 Report Posted May 1 (edited) His dad is a former Akron QB under Faust and was the 1990 Athlete of the Year for UA. He is currently the co-OC & TE coach for Syracuse. Edited May 1 by Let'sGoZips94 2 Quote

Blue & Gold Posted May 1 Author Report Posted May 1 (edited) Just a reminder that Post #1 in this thread is up to date with all of this year's new commits. 35 commits in total 17 on offense (2 QB's) 17 on defense (8 DL) 1 specialist JoeMo's a beast. The workload for a mid-major HC in this new portal era blows my mind. So let's get to a bowl 💪😤💪 Edited May 1 by Blue & Gold 4 Quote
Captain Kangaroo Posted May 1 Report Posted May 1 Watch that YouTube video at your own risk. The "reporter" extends what should be a 1 minute and 30 second story into a 30 minute diatribe. Funny to see former Zip Zach Gibson trying to catch on with the Orange. Akron to Georgia Tech to Georgia State to Syracuse? Quote

Captain Kangaroo Posted May 1 Report Posted May 1 This is about as excited as I can get over a back up QB. He was a really impressive player out of HS. He will be a big improvement over Bullock. Strong, athletic kid. His dad is probably the most accomplished UA football player ever, if you look at the breadth of his overall football career. He played in the USFL and has coached high level positions at P5 and NFL staffs. His name usually pops up whenever the Zips decide they need a new HC (about every 3 years) He came to the Zips from Arizona State while I was at UA. He used to wear a burgundy corduroy jacket around campus that was swag from being on Arizona State's Rose Bowl team. Great player. To be eligible to play for the Zips in the fall I recall Mike Sr. had to take something insane like 24 credit hours over the summer, and he did it. 6 Quote
Let'sGoZips94 Posted May 7 Report Posted May 7 (edited) APR be damned. We're still getting quality commits. 😂 Edited May 7 by Let'sGoZips94 Quote
