Good story--hope he makes the best of it.

How many years of eligibility does this young man have left? 3 to play 2 or something on that line?

You nailed it with the bolded part.

Thanks for the info Hawkfan. and after watching his video he looks like someone who could come in and be an above average return man as well as having some decent ball skills. Here is a video [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYnLkWOWOec]YouTube - Gavin Smith ICCC 2010[/ame]

Returning kicks at the dodge is not a judge of B10 ball and return skills.

If history tells us anything, one of those six guys will contribute in a huge way and we'll be talking about them as being a possible 1-3 round pick in the NFL.

 

[Herschberger21]

At the very least this guy will help out on special teams. He looks to be sound tackler too.

 

[GO4ROZS]

I like it. Can't have too much depth. Even if all he ever does is help out on special teams, that's no small thing, as we found out last season.

Odd, you don't see many walk-on Juco transfers at this level. Best of luck.

 

[TecmoBowl]

Not a bad pick up. If the guy pans out as a depth contributor, overall it helps out with the shuffling of the corner/safety position.

Like you know anything about fort dodge or playing football or whatever! Oh wait a second.............

Incidentally the last couple jucos we got from the tritons did farely well. TB were still the tritons aren't we?

The kid's got a dream. Good for him...I hope he gets to see the field at some point in the next three years.

Oh to be young and talented again...

no

So what your saying is KF was wrong to invite him to walk on. You are officially the 988,623rd INTERNET Hawkeye who knows more than the coaches. If you could've just held out to be Mr. 1 Million you would've got a Mug with your picture on it.

As far as I know, its still the Tritons. Clinton Solomon is the only one that comes to mind right now. Who else?

Amari Spievey spent a year at ICCC too.

Any idea what happened to Solomon? I had figured with his size, he could play at the next level. Didn't expect him to be a probowler or anything, but figured he would find a roster for awhile.

Got hurt during first training camp, don't remember with who wanna say vikings or dolphins or some other team i'm just totally guessing about with a name unrelated to the other two names i mentioned. After that i don't think he ever got another shot, not sure.
