These guys sometimes come down here focused on one person only. Let's hope he works out like Max and is a good player AND teammate. Lord knows there was enough drama on that team last year to last 5 years.
But, yeah, roll the dice. Play with him or against him.

Re: IUP Defense
To answer your question IUP410, I think there are a few questions that must be address during this fall camp. Last year's run defense was 8th in the PSAC, and those stats included playing against the 4 worst rushing offenses, to include 15th Millersville (38 carries/47 yards) #14 Seton Hill (18 carries/9 yards). I know I have stated this quite often, but the DL, particularly the DTs, they must play stout in order for their good LBs to make more tackles near or behind the line of scrimmage. The secondary has questions too. Former All American CB JR Stevens was benched 3 of the last 4 games, will he regain back his starting position? Is SS Shaq Jones 100% healthy from shoulder surgery? Who will start and play effectively the Free Safety AND Star positions? And we can't forget they now have a new DB coach. Will he have them playing better than the last season, or will they take another step back? I can't just automatically call this one of the best defense in the PSAC, some questions must be answered during the fall camp. I can wait til they get their chances on Sept 7, as IUP412 stated.Last edited by ShoNuff; 08-06-2019, 05:44 PM.
