he's from Santa Ana juco.

Santa Ana Preview
By Scott Eklund

Posted May 9, 2007

One of the top JC programs in California year in and year out is Santa Ana College and head coach Geoff Jones isn’t lacking for talented players this year. He’s got one of the top signal-callers in the state and he spoke to JCFootball.com recently about what fans and four-year schools can expect to see this fall from the Dons.

“We have some really talented players but in a couple of spots we’re pretty young,” Jones said. “But we have some really good players and prospects that are, in my opinion, the best in the state at their positions.”

Below are Jones’ thoughts on some of his top players…

DT Spencer Gasu – “He’s probably my best prospect. He’s so strong and he’s got great size (6-2, 315). He’s so quick for a man his size and he’s a bull against the run and he can get after the quarterback too.

“As far as recruiting is going for him, we need to get him his own mailbox. He’s hearing from pretty much everyone and Kansas State looks like they could be close to offering, but he doesn’t have any just yet.”

About time.  Bring on the linemen that actually look like men.  I saw Nick Stringer today and I sh*t you not that kid looks like he weighs about 230.  He's going to get destroyed on the O-line.

This thread sux without pictures of University of Kansas Head Football Coach Mark Mangino in it.


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

New warning: Don't get in a fight with someone who doesn't even need to bother to buy ink.

That's why he really isn't that good on our O-Line and was constantly beat last year.  He doesn't play as good as his dad but, he did improve as the year went on...if he does play this year - I hope someone worked with him

You realize that our aforementioned and well praised new strength coach's goal was to slim down our line. And it has been an effective goal.

Incase you were wondering.

Stringer won't be cleared for contact until June -- had the shoulder surgery back in winter. He lost a ton of weight after the surgery. They want him to put a lot of it back on by September.

Remember when we had the 3rd heaviest O-Line in all of football.  And we were really good.  Yeah, that was awesome.

Each time you post about your knowledge of the inner workings of our football team you make yourself out to know absolutely nothing at all about said team.  Let me guess... now you're going to tell me that Stringer has put on 20 pounds of muscle?   :rolleyes:  Just like Watts... he's a lanky as ever.

How is your recruiting going so far? I've noticed you are in on a lot of the same guys we are recruiting.

Do you have any early commits, and who do you foresee in the near future? Are you in on good guys in your need positions? etc

For sure a lot better.  We're not offering everybody like last year, and it looks like we have a good chance at some decent prospects.  I hope we get close to a 3 star average.

Cooper Bassett is committed to us and he is getting a lot of looks. Chris Harper is a near lock and he should be a four star. We are decent with Arthur Brown and we lead for a lot of the Skyline guys so it seems to be going pretty well. I'm pretty optimistic and excited to see how this one turns out..

They just updated the weights on the official site last week. Stringer is now listed at 265, so he'd better belly up to the table and eat his katpaks.
