Good story. Considering the lack of depth he should be a welcome addition especially if he is good enough to start.

Very lucky. Sounds like things worked out great for him too. Can't wait to hear his reaction to running out that tunnel to a packed Swamp for the first time. I have a feeling this guy just might make the difference for our offense. His experience is going to be valuable to the young players.

Gonna be a huge addition to our OL while allowing some youngsters an additional year to develop.

Let's not get carried away here. It's been a long, long, long time since we've seen one of these.

The Mustank is gone. People will come to see that first game under JMac. It'll be packed.

I think we'll see a bump in attendance this year, but I don't know that we'll see it packed.

One thing seems crappy ... for the student. That he lost a year of eligibility when he couldn't play due to a protracted
case of mononucleosis because that's not a football related injury. Mono can be too debilitating to allow you to do heavy
physical activity. He got a season of eligibility checked off during that ?

Not luck at all. It's this guy

Law would need to spin it as "luck" since he's on record saying Coach Mac is a bad hire.

Amazing that our best olineman will probably be a guy that got 2 offers from DII. That could be indicative of how bad we are, but I'm hoping he's NFL talent instead.

It's not Div 2, its 1aa. Completely different.

If you are going to try to sift through unranked prospects to look for a nugget of gold, waiting until AFTER they are All Americans is a helluva great way to do it.

We are lucky Halter was available.

I'm on record as saying Collins and Nusschimp are terrible hires and that Mac is a risky one, not the home run hire we desperately needed.

Nope. I asked you point blank before are you putting it on the record that Mac was a bad hire, and you said "yes."

We are all holding you to it, and as a board we are going to incessantly berate you down the road the likes of which even York has never seen. You will be cast away in shame.

This is a great story, so thanx for Sharon.

Can't wait to see him run out of that tunnel and hopefully dominate!
