Hope he is on the same level as the transfers from FBS schools.

Preferred walk on? Essentially zero in game experience at Bowling Green and Bryant

His Dad was a great recruiter when he was here. I feel older now that his kid is here!

It’s good that he’s on the team for a variety of reasons.

what are these reasons? I thought Mora was trying to get the best athletes?

Scott Lakatos was an assistant coach at Danbury High my Senior year in 1988, great dude. My sister just texted me and it seems Cole is a very good friend of my nephews who went to Red Bank Regional in NJ. They said Cole is top notch too. Nice grab by the staff.

Defensive Analyst @ Bryant as far as I know (which can be cloudy @ times).

Punt returner maybe.

 

[AzHusky]

At my age not sure about my memory, but don't we need somebody who can catch a punt and not call a fair catch and let the ball bounce in the end zone.

WOs serve a lot of roles including good character guys, hard practice hustle guys, guys they might want to coach someday, etc etc. At our level you are not going to be stuffing the WO group with 2 deep players. These are your 4th line guys to run practice. And maybe a couple of them in a pool of 20 develop to scholarship players.

Not on current staff per Bryant website

Maybe finished up his time @ end of 2023? I was running off pure recollection.

“Scott Lakatos begins his fifth season with Bryant Football in 2023. He will serve as the defensive analyst. Lakatos has coached in 10 FBS Bowl games and 14 of his former players have landed in the National Football League.”

Now we can look forward to some Cole-Squared passing routes....

Nice add. And Cole did a cartwheel dive into the end zone so he'll fit right in.
