I'm looking forward to my first booster recruiting violation* Archived Message Posted by General Engineer on December 12, 2016, 17:14:28, in reply to "Go get him GE!*" Previous Message Previous Message he played in, so I've seen this kid play for about 7 years now. He's been the best player on the field every game during that time. Not sure what his position would be, as PR runs the triple option and averages about 3 passing attempts per game, but he's a great athlete and football player, so I'm sure they can find a spot for him.
