I shouldn’t have watched the highlights. I’m sold. 12-0.

He has a few plays where he’s behind the play and catches up to block multiple people. Pretty agile!
My favorite part of him is his desire for contact. He was a hockey player in high school as well.

I like our DB and LB pickups as well as our QB and WR/TE pickups, but we need more Oline and Dline players. We have a few but need to beef that up or the rest doesn’t matter

Let's start the speculation early! Who starts at QB next year? Hasselbeck, Singleton, or someone else?

My money is on singleton, just because he has more game experience. I think it will really come down to who does better in spring practice though.

He is wearing number 14.

12-0 more like 17-0...

I got no clue. Both look pretty good in their highlight reels. I could make a strong argument for either. Unfortunately, those highlight reels rarely tell the whole story.

JJ to FIU
Hard to quit before a bowl game there, should be fine.
Ponce still at FIU?

One thing I LOVE about Mac Walters - Scout team award winner similar to Rondo Porter. Shows he is not afraid of working hard in practice and leading the right way to earn his chances. Walters won the award twice.
