Heard good things about him. He was the only back this fall to get 100 yrds on South Plaq. Good size and speed. Is he flying under the radar because he plays 1-A? Where will he go?

Most of the time these smaller school kids end up at just that....smaller schools.

Once in a while you'll get a Chris Davenport or al Woods, but the majority of the time, they end up at lower tier schools. Be it mid-major or I-AA.

What message is that Prom.....If your not good enough to be recruited by a larger school or Private school, you can't hang with the big boys? The last couple of years, South Plaq. could hang with anybody.

Saw the kid play a couple games, and the kid is good but he's not division 1 ball player.

Mcneese and other divison 2 schools will compete for him.

If he wanted to hang with the big boys he needed to go to atleast 1 camp. You can go to a tiny school and still be recruited, but you have to put yourself out there. Playing against weak arse competition, which he most certainly has, won't get attention. Showing out at LSU camp would have gotten him on the radar.

Did you mean against South Cameron (who is 0-9)?

Because Oberlin has not played South Plaq. this year.

BTW, I hope he comes to ULM. I'd love to watch him play the next few years if he's as good as advertised.

The BYU honor code governs not only academic behavior, but morality, and dress and grooming standards of students and faculty, with the aim of providing an atmosphere consistent with LDS principles. The Honor Code requires:

Abstinence from illicit drugs, alcohol, tobacco, coffee, and tea (substances forbidden by the LDS Word of Wisdom)
Honesty
Encouraging others in their commitment to keep the Honor Code
Living a chaste and virtuous life:
Appropriate gender-specific behavior (no sexual harassment)
No involvement with pornographic or indecent material
No inappropriate sexual activity (no sexual relationships outside of marriage)
No homosexual behavior
Obedience to the law
Active participation in Church services (according to whatever religion one is a member)
Respect for others
Clean language
Following the "Residential Living Standards" (visiting hours for members of the opposite sex)
Dress and Grooming Standards. Abiding by the guidelines for dress, grooming, and housing. Skirts and shorts must reach to the knee and shirts may not be sleeveless. Form fitting, strapless and revealing clothing is not appropriate. Male students may not wear beards or goatees without permission; such permission is usually granted only to men with skin conditions aggravated by shaving, men whose religious beliefs require them to wear beards, or theatrical performances requiring beards.
Students are prohibited from having guns on campus.[5]



Sounds like a great college experience.
