All Legal Issues Aside, The New Football Roster is Up

by storminspank on Jul 23, 2008 3:24 PM CDT in Football Comment 28 comments

Hawkeyesports has updated the Football roster. The incoming froshes have their numbers; Shonn Greene gets his old one back. Fun for all. Although Marcus Wilson and David Blackwell have pages on Hawkeyesports, I don't see them listed on the roster... yet. Probably nothing to worry about. Other notes: Paine is listed as a WR, Staten at LB, and Riley Reiff is still on the team.

HERE ARE THE NUMBERS FOR THE INCOMING FRESHMAN COURTESY OF HAWKEYESPORTS.COM

Pretty egregious error on Casey McMillan's height and weight (6'4"/295, who are they kidding?), but we'll let it slide as this is probably just a preliminary release.

How many days until kickoff?

Number Missing

Isn’t the more egregious error with the McMillanbeast the fact that they left off a six?

Bravo.

Reiff is 77

Those numbers just look fast, too, don’t they? All slanted and stuff….

They look REAL fast

Especially when the jersey is lying in pile on the ground.

I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.

Did you just make a prom dress joke?

No, just a poor reference to last week's activities

Perhaps I should have said: “You think they look fast now? Just wait til he puts it back on.”

6'4", 295

Imagine opponents’ surprise when they realize Casey’s height/weight as listed in the media guide is actually only that of his left leg.

It's an easy error...

Really, it’s a simple mistake anyone could make regarding Casey’s 6’4” 295lb parasitic twin. Just ask Kuato from Total Recall.

Can't.

Casey ate him. Right before he started the Reactor – manually. And not just pressed that button-thingy, I mean he actually pushed the atmosphere generators up through the surface. One-handed. The other hand was making a sandwich.

IS NOT A TUMAH

It's been far to long since I've read a Kindergarten Cop reference on your blog.

here comes someone...

He's a Cynogolagist.

He ain't Chuck Norris!

Although he may be Jack Bauer. We may never know…

by imadirtyoldman on Jul 23, 2008 9:15 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs

Chuck Norris is in his 70s

And Jack Bauer trembles with bowel-clenching fear at the very mention of the name “McMillan.”

by Bucketochicken on Jul 23, 2008 9:33 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs

There's a reason no one brings up Higby anymore...

Casey McMillan absorbed him. True story.

And with that,

Jack Bauer’s bowels are no longer clenched. Yowza.

Bill Brasky vs Jack Bauer?

I’m taking Brasky after I saw what he did with my mother.

Are the Omaha boys supposed to be any good?

The Prater twins? Just curious.

by tyger1147 on Jul 24, 2008 11:39 AM CDT reply actions 0 recs

both Nebraska offers

One’s supposed to be better than the other. Whoever it was Iowa offered first.

Also, the coaching staff should really have given them the same number.

All I know is a bunch of my friends in Omaha were pissed that Iowa got them instead of Nebraska.

by MP hawkfan on Jul 24, 2008 1:46 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs

Wow...

Usually the response from Husker faithful when U of I has gotten a kid from around here is 1) Nebraska must not have wanted him, and/or 2) kid must not be any good.

They were right about Shada.

Reminds me of when...

Antwaan Randle-El was playing for Indiana. I was at school in DC watching an Iowa-Indiana game with a friend and I noticed that the back of Randle-El’s jersey read “A. Randle-El” I was incredulous, saying “why the HELL does he need to have his first initial on his jersey? Is ‘Randle-El’ such a common last name that they need to distinguish him from someone else?” Which, since his brother also played for the team at the time, I guess they did.

Not sure where I’m going with this. Kind of feel like Grampa Simpson “One trick is to tell them stories that don’t go anywhere. Like the time I took the ferry to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for my shoe so I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time…”

I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
