Offline Tarin Smith posts video on twitter two days ago showing him jumping over Nakye Sanders and dunking. Doesn't look like he's out of the picture I guess? Offline Last edited by Duques102 (6/13/2016 12:42 pm) Offline Smith has some hops, huh? Offline Smith has some hops, huh? That was my first thought, this looks like an injury waiting to happen especially with that faux-grass turf that kind of sticks when you land on it. You can also see in that video steel standing in the background so I guess they are both still around. Also agree on J. Rob with football, he has the build of a lot of modern day tight ends.

Dude, that's hardly racist. Most black Americans have some degree of European ancestry, therefore, you will will see all manner of skin tones, largely based on how much Euro they have in them. Not racist at all to notice that. Offline Just being overly cautious about a sensitive issue when addressing a bunch of anonymous people. Does anybody recognize that kid though? Offline Eyes aren't what they used to be but I think it is Blackmon. Offline Ironic Offline I was able to screen shot the end of the video and then superimpose the picture by zooming and screen shotting the picture enough times to get a close up look of the kids face, and it is definitely not Blackmon. For some reason I am unable to just copy and paste the zoomed in picture to this board because it was taken from my iphone and the picture seems to be in some wierd format. Any suggestions as to how I could get this picture on the board for you guys to see? or you could just do the same thing with your phone. I sent the picture to my email and can copy and paste it into office documents but not onto here.... Offline Not to keep stirring the pot but this is not blackmon. Duquesne just Instagram a picture welcome Kale Abrahamsson to the bluff with the caption of " 5 of the 6 newcomers have now arrived to Duquesne" (The last being blackmon) Online! Not to keep stirring the pot but this is not blackmon. Duquesne just Instagram a picture welcome Kale Abrahamsson to the bluff with the caption of " 5 of the 6 newcomers have now arrived to Duquesne" (The last being blackmon) currentstudent, in that Instagram, there is a sign on the wall behind Kale that assigns to the listed team members their heart monitors. I glanced at the list, saw that even walk ons were included, so that should give you and 102 another clue. Offline The photo is unreadable when I try to make it larger but appears to have 16 names. 13 scholarships, two returning walkons and the kid who plays football, no? Offline The player could be Kellon Taylor, the two sport player. Saw a story about him joining the three freshmen for summer school. Offline The player could be Kellon Taylor, the two sport player. Saw a story about him joining the three freshmen for summer school. Kellon Taylor is on the opposite side of the screen in the red shirt standing behind Tarin Smith Online! The sign reads:

Found this little gem too. J Rob straight throwing Nakye Sanders through the air. Didn't know basketball teams did drills like this. •Thread Starter

The gladiator-style blocking bag jousting would concern me. You land on turf just the wrong way you could dislocate a wrist, shoulder, knee, etc. If Robinson had gone to a U.S. high school, you just know that the football coaches would have salivated over him. Big man.

Whoah, so not to start any controversy, but do we potentially have a guy on the roster that hasnt been announced yet??? Just watched the second joust video again, you can see littleson, Mike Lewis, and the two sport kid from maryland behind smith to the left. Watch to the right behind castro. Castro wins the little battle and coming up from behind him is nakye, steel, presumably a walk on, and another guy. When the video stops at the end he is the guy wearing the blue duquesne basketball shirt. Not to be racist but it is not Emile blackmon because he is much lighter skinned than the kid in the video. He is also too short to be Isiaha mike (almost same height as steel) and doesn't look like him either. Who is that kid??? •Thread Starter

This could be a new walk on this year with Foshia's spot being up for grabs.
