Westphal to Oshkosh?? wtf

[Bisonguy]

His backup??? You lost me. I was under the impression he never played a single down for the Bison, therefore meaning that he was never a starter. Meaning that there was no backup to him.

Just my little rant. Sorry.

"To be the man, you've gotta beat the man! WOOOOOO!!!!"

I'm telling you, this smells like a guy that came in all excited, was caught off guard by the talent of the guys already here and it scared him. You don't make a comment about what a great work ethic you have and then pack it in after a week or so without having some confidence issues or being nothing but talk. I say he got a little taste of reality and decided to go home where he had a support system in place to massage his confidence.

There, I spun this and I didn't even have to stretch to do it.

Yes, the talent he saw here after being at Wisconsin scared him. All of our talent on defense was so apparent last year. We had guys sitting on the bench who could have started for anywhere.

Honestly, after watching practice yesterday, the last position I am worried about is D-Line. The kids were stepping up and putting alot of pressure on. Leevon Perry and Justin Juckem cannot possibly have 4 years left. There is just no way. If you asked a random group of people how old Justin Juckem was, they would tell you 30. Kid is a man.

One particular play that Leevon blew up ended with Coach Hazelton coming running from damn near the other side of the field yelling "LEEVON....LEEVON....LEEVON..." He finally turned around, probably worried he screwed up, and Hazelton came running and gave him a huge high 5. Making sure the kid knew he did it correct. The coaching on the field was very impressive to me. I think the youth on this team is very evident after watching. I hope the fanbase is very patient, because the next few years could be special. The young talent is amazing.

Leevon's gonna wear his football war wounds like a crown!
(Sorry younger dudes.)

Loved your musical quote!! But, by default, that means that I am an older dude.

I was being a little sarcastic. I agree with our young talent. I even posted it when everyone was gushing over Westphal transferring here. We have some real solid young players up front and him starting was never a given in my book. I'll wait until the guys put pads on though to do more evaluating.

He is a Wiscy kid who didn't want to leave the state, that is pretty clear. And for those who think he left wiscy because he wasn't starting. False, he left because he wasn't allowed to even compete for the starting job.

[Herd]

If he wasn't even allowed to compete for playing time, he must have fallen way out of favor, he must have way under achieved in his time in Madison. Is that your impression Bill? He must not be very strong in the teammate category. If he had the ability, I would liked to have seen him in green and yellow, but I'm not for wasting scholarships either, we've done enough of that.

1 bullshit sandwhich to go, please.

[ndsubison1]

He's gone. Oh well. This will at least give some of our younger guys more opportunities
