I didn't even read the name. He was a solid player on some ridiculous Bosco teams that included 5 all-Americans at one point. It good to get a continued connection to Bosco. Let's hope he pans out better than some of the other Bosco backs we've had

 

Btw. Watch at the 3:35 mark of the Avon highlights. The kid on the other team tries to slide tackle him from behind. Never seen anything like it.

We picked up a verbal from TB Dione Alston of Salem H.S., New Jersey. He had offers from North Dakota State, Bryant, and an appointment/football slot at Army. Has a 3.3. GPA and lines up in the slot as well as at TB. 5'8 160LB

Yep, Dione came aboard a couple of weeks ago. A bit undersized...but has some wheels.

Another QB - a Penn State transfer. At this rate, we're going to have more QB's than linemen.

WOW....this.is.something. I watched DJ live...a few times. He played against some solid prep competition...but if memory serves, he only had offers from Harvard, Brown, Holy Cross...and a preferred walk-on at UCONN.

 

He can run really, really well...and has a decent arm (comparable to Fiacchi).

There will be some stiff competition this year, and this all signals a "Welcome to D-I Football" attitude for our schooll

And Neven Sussman AND Sweeney.

 

7 QBs?

At least 2 are leaving, no? My guess is Harding and White and maybe Sweeney.

 

I don't remember hearing Neven actually signing...so who knows. Look at this way, the only guys "signed" are:

 

Will Brunson- 4 years eligibility (likely a red-shirt if he doesn't win the job)- So he gets five years.

DJ Crook- 3 years eligibility in 3 years

Steve Shanley- 4 years eligibility in 4 years

Shane Sweeney- 3 years eligibility in 3 years

Dan Harding- 1 year left

Ryan Smith- 1 year left (but he's a graduate)

 

Who is White? Never heard of that QB?
