With the starters on defense against the scout offense, Ian turns right when he should have turned left, and Jacob Driver, a linebacker and the defensive captain, gets in his grille. "How many times are we going to have to run it?" he says, his words liberally salted with disgust and profanity. Ian whips off his helmet, and the coaches have to separate them.

"That's it," Ian says. "I quit." And with that, he stalks off the field and up the hill to the dressing room. Nobody seems surprised. Nobody tries to stop him. The players' reaction: Big deal, happens every couple of weeks

Maybe he can teach Snyder his ways?

says he won't

jtksu · « **Reply #1632 on:** January 30, 2011, 04:32:11 PM »

No way he would choose us if we were going to redshirt him.

wabash909 · « **Reply #1633 on:** January 30, 2011, 04:37:22 PM »

He seems kind of good, which is weird for us. Wonder why he only took two visits?

i poo crabs · « **Reply #1634 on:** January 30, 2011, 04:37:36 PM »

It's great we added more depth at LB. Seems like LB could be a strength of the team with Arthur Brown, Tre Walker, Hrebec, Slaughter, Childs, and Seau.

Do guys like Curry who we greyshirted last year count towards this years 25?

jtksu · « **Reply #1637 on:** January 30, 2011, 04:50:26 PM »

It will if we give him a scholarship.

i poo crabs · « **Reply #1638 on:** January 30, 2011, 04:58:05 PM »

ESPN has him as our highest recruit, 4 stars, 80 rating ... 2 points higher than Clark, Hunter Davis, and Harvill

He's listed as a DE on ESPN ... are we planning for him to be a LB?

He's not going to KU.

So if our Dline sucks again this year, is it safe to consider Mo the problem?

I heard that. But the players say that he is still there and attends all the meetings and cac.

Ya, that was confusing to me as well....best I can tell, he was un-retired as a result of losing Burns and losing Leavitt.

Since McReynold's article is on the cover of Gopowercat.com, I hope this indicates he will be signing with us.

Any updates on Bernard Thomas? We could use some young CBs ... seems like we've had Juco CBs consistently for a while

We are out.

"It was academics first," he said. "Kevin wants to get a business degree and he wants to go on and get his MBA. We looked at graduation rates and everything like that. Of course, it has to be a good football situation, too. We feel confident that we did a good job of taking the right visits and making the right choice."
