Luke Magliozzi - Essendon Keilor High School, Victoria Australia:

I can't believe I just watched a punter highlight clip. I am ready for football to start.

Luke Magliozzi - Essendon Keilor High School, Victoria Australia:

Punter from Australia? Taking a page out of Les Miles's book. I like it.

Jerrell Chaney is a 6-3 190lb WR/DB from Albany High School in Albany New York (This has Aaron Smith's fingerprints all over it)

 

[Chin Diesel]

Any background on Steer.

6'3" 260lbs. Seems like he would slot as a DE on 3-3-5.

Transfer from CCSU.

Discussion on Ben Pryor here from last night... New player? Interesting to see them have him listed as a DB.

Reminds me of this for some reason:

 

[Chin Diesel]

Transfer from CCSU.

End or Tackle?

No, Les Miles took the page out of Randy's book . . . .

Haha learn something new every day. I was 9 years old when he was a senior, so I hope you'll forgive me.

 

[Exit 4]

Interesting to put Pryor on defense considering how many DBs we have coming in this year and now next year. He looks Robbie Frey like in the highlight reel for the RB position and I would think we need more bodies at RB anyway.

At least he punts straight on, not with a running rugby style. Those guys annoy the hell out of me.

Chaney video. Based on his t-shirt this has been in the pipeline for a while.

Good size and a well-spoken kid too. Combine that with his major of marine biology and it seems like we've added another intelligent kid to the program. Welcome Jarrell!

 

[Colt house75]

The roster listed Kyle Buss as a Freshmen.... can someone help me here. ?
If he is a transfer in from Robert Morris, I thought he had to sit a year and would be listed
as a Sophmore , NO??? How many years does he have left?

I think the roster is wrong @ this point. There are a few things on there that needs cleaning up.

 

[Coach J]

Unless he's running against some really slow dudes in those clips, Chaney has some serious breakaway speed and length to boot! Certainly a welcome addition. Welcome aboard Jerrell!

With Robert Holmes only being 6'3 251lbs it's clear they're not done with the updates....

IIRC, we had a punter from Australia when we first moved to the Rent. I want to say Coles but I'm not sure (and it was just a punter).
