He's a QB though and Raomain is a RB so that wouldn't make a lot of sense would it?Willie wrote:Don't worry, we got someone better. That 6A player of the year from Oregon.Grizalltheway wrote:

Good job to Albany on that guy as he sounds like a real good recruit.

I'm sure it had nothing to do with anything except the "isolation" factor of a Northern-NJ kid going to school in Montana.

Congrats to Albany!
I was hoping he'd be a Griz and help elevate our running game...looks like we're gonna' be stuck in mediocrity at the RB position for next year!??!

Although I'll gladly conceded that a 2.5 hr drive in Montana is much more scenic.

Now, had you been stuck in Saratoga County during Track Season (Late July through Labor Day) you would have had a much different opinion.

Re: Montana hires an OC and nabs a QB recruit
Maybe we can get Albany on the schedule again. That'll teach him!

Should I make a whole separate thread about how the NJ POY chose Albany over Montana..........like Ronbo made on AGS about the kid verballing to Montana?

G-d I miss the days when I bartended in 'Toga. I have been all over...but the ass in 'Toga is fantastic in the summer.
In the good words of many on this board, "I'D HIT IT."
Oh...and SUPER PUMPED ABOUT ROMAIN. We have two studs at the RB position now.

Re: Montana hires an OC and nabs a QB recruit
Here's what I don't understand, and no offense meant to Albany: If he was good enough to make Montana, why Albany? Why isn't he being courted by JMU, or Richmond, or W&M or UMass? All of those are just as close, aren't they? Are they all stupid, or were Montana and Albany overestimating this young man's talents?danefan wrote:Should I make a whole separate thread about how the NJ POY chose Albany over Montana..........like Ronbo made on AGS about the kid verballing to Montana?
