Wife and i attended. Attendance was lower then previous years. Hawk was true to form. Always life messages in his speeches. He said this class was a small class, but talented. He played the recruit video and made comments along the way. He seemed pleased with the receivers they brought in as well as the entire group. He keeps his cards tight, but i got the impression he was especially pleased with Kraut, but was careful not to praise one kid over another. He did say the training facility has already made an impact on recruiting.

“ City College of San Francisco quarterback Jack Newman has been named California Community College Sports Information Association (CCCSIA) State Athlete of the Month for September. It is the third time since the inception of the award in 2005 that a CCSF student-athlete earned the honor.”

“ For the month, Newman completed 99 of 140 passes (70.7%) for 1,552 yards and 15 touchdowns with only two interceptions. He led all quarterbacks in the state in completions, touchdowns, passing yards, as well as passing yards per game with 388.

Newman closed out September with back-to-back games of 400+ yards passing and four touchdowns. On Sept. 18, he threw 27 for 40 with 419 yards passing at Modesto Junior College and wrapped up the month with a 27 for 37 performance with 417 yards against American River College.”

Newman interview at Cal. Seems like a very articulate young man.

So Newman went from HS to city college of SF , then to Cal, then back to SF? Cal shows him as a sophmore transfer from SF in 2019. 6’1” 200lbs.

Looks like we’ll have something to cheer about tonight!

Good win, but they were letting UCR back in towards the end. 65-60Ags

32-22 Ags at the half. UCR looked defeated at the end of the half. Lets see if we can maintain the momentum.

Crawford’s shoes are going to be hard to fill, but somehow we usually do.

Regarding grad school, as i digest it a bit, don’t flame me, but grad school should not be a mechanism to extend eligibility for athletes unless they are degree driven. We need to maintain some level of academic integrity. My nephew was a starter at PSU, left his senior year and went to the beavers where he was a starter. He is a super bright kid and is in a graduate program with plans to finish his degree. 6’5” 300 lbs. I worked him as hard as i could to get him here when he was in HS.

Maybe Borra will get some more minutes. The few times i have seen him he looks promising.

Yes, thanks to all of you especially CA. I’m essentially a non-contributor on this thread, but always enjoy the posts and the anticipation of how our new recruits will contribute. We have one of the most active FCS forums in the country.

I hope he is the real McCoy. I was sort of expecting a JC transfer.

I’ve been a fan of Tompkins, mainly bc of his overall athleticism. But accuracy and reading the defense is not his forte. These are two areas we have desperately missed since Jake graduated. Jake could read the D, call an audible, and turn the down into something. Let’s face it, without a stud qb we likely could be looking at a mediocre season. We could go 0-4 out the gate. Cal, SDSU, Weber, then Montana state. Ouch.

I wonder if we are going to recruit a QB or work with our current troops? Maybe we’ll know Wednesday night.

Well, was at the grandson’s basketball game and missed this one.


That loss to J street gave me a few more gray hairs. Painful.

And the Ags drop that one 74-58. It was a closer game than that up to the last several minutes

Fullerton 100% on FTs, Ags 29%

4 to go, Ags down 54-60

I liked Borra’s inside work in the first half. I’d like to see him get more time

30-30 at half. Both teams went ice cold last 5 minutes

As expected, fullerton scratching back, within 2
