What is you connection with LU? Is Bruce thinking of coming to Lamar? I think he would be a great addititon to the Cardinal program as he is a very talented athlete and obviously has leadership skills. A couple of people were asking what Bruce's plans for college were so I thought I'd go ahead and ask point blank. Forgive me, if you take it as being rude. I and a few others were just wondering about your son's future plans. [/quote] I have no connection...I attended Lamar before going in to the Marine Corps....Lamar was talking about offering Jr last Spring...but it didn't happen.......I understand it is difficult to entertain 6 QB's on a roster....he would love to walk on, but doesn't seem to be in the radar for even that... One coach told me that it's a risk going after Jr...because they do not know if he will perform at the same level as he did in HS.....you know what?  [b]THE ENTIRE WB DEFENSE WILL BE PLAYING COLLEGE FOOTBALL SOMEWHERE[/b](the last one committed yesterday to UT)....you can say he has been practicing against college level talent for 2 yrs....yeah he's "Fivey" (5' 11").... Bruce's Sophomore yr in HS he was asked to play WR....to this day, I think he could have come on to the scene a bit earlier...I think he could have challenged for the QB spot as a sophomore! just my opinion...Deja VU? Jr has a couple of offers from D2 schools, D3 (academic), Jr College, NAIA...(All want him as a QB)..but he wants to wait til after Lamar's Spring Game to see if they would take him as a "Considered Walk On"...but If they don't want him, he doesn't want to force the issue(try out with out being considered)...I don't think they would give him an opportunity to compete...DEJA VU...again... 8) [/quote] Rey, sounds to me like the best option would be to go the JuCo route in the hopes you can catch a few eyes. To my knowledge, you don't see a lot of outstanding DII talent moving up to DI. What I see around this area is DI talent going to a JuCo, transferring to DI, and then if issues come up, going down to DII. I think if he can shine at a JuCo somewhere, then he'll get a call in two years to try out somewhere. Best of luck to your son! [/quote] That is not out of the question...and Jr will make the best choice that fits him.

So many true "football" players get past up because of the measurables or "physical attributes" but bottom line is if you produce on da field thats the players IMO I would want on my team.

Congrats! and Good Luck to you!

Now I don't wish him ill - but I certainly don't hope that he excels, and in turn, SFA excels.  Maybe I can hope that plays really well and SFA just sucks.  Do you see the paradox in that? [/quote] I see you are in for a lot of disappointment the next few years, SFA wise.  :D [/quote] man....speechless.....
