That 265lb RB sounds right up your alley IAA.  :afro:

There's the thunder we've been missing lol.

I'm guessing they are looking at him for DT?

I haven't seen that confirmed anywhere.  Is that your opinion, or did you get that info from someone you deem to be a reliable source?

Staff is really on Waid to flip and sign here. Also on his WR Nick Maltio. Gave him an offer recently.

Looks like nothing has changed. Do we even know how to recruit a "team"? No line, no RB's. Initially, I thought it was because the media does not wish to cover the big guys, but I don't think that is it. Certainly a runniinb back would be a top mention (maybe behind QB).

Don't give up on Jelani Stafford's career as a RB until you watch his HUDL highlights!  Seriously, he could have a 2 way career as a short yardage RB along with DT.

Wonder where he is going?




DALLAS — Beaver Local senior Garrett Givens will be playing in the annual Blue-Grey All-American Bowl on Monday at AT&T Stadium.


“It’s a great honor to be selected to a national bowl game where I will be able to represent my school and area in Dallas Cowboys stadium,” Givens said. “I believe it would be great to wrap up my senior season with a win.”

Givens, a 6-foot-2, 225-pounder, will be an inside linebacker for the East squad wearing No. 32.

He was selected as one of the top 90 senior high school football players out of 6,750 who competed at the Blue-Grey All-American combines.

Givens has been a four-year starter for the Beavers and three-year captain for the Beavers. He collected more than 350 career tackles, including 101 this season along with 806 yards rushing and 11 touchdowns.

The Beaver Local standout was nominated for the three-day event, by former Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Byron Evans.

Givens will be featured during a national media dinner, where he will meet with 24/7 Sports, USA Today, Rivals and the Impact Football Network on the first night.

Practices will be held Saturday and Sunday at South Grand Prairie High.

The game will be carried by the New Impact Football Network with the kickoff scheduled for 7 p.m.

Just the kind of player my daughter would like!  (she doesn't care of they can play, it's how they look.  Her favorite NFL player? Brady Quinn)
