This has to be the only school with no white o-linemen right??

Jeff Scweiger was one of the top recruits for USC. He however didn't fit into the system there I guess. I hope he has better luck with San Jose state, He is very athletic.

I can't remember for sure, but it is definitely one of 3 or less that we have previewed so far.

is anyone else watching the Boise St-San Jose St game tonight?

i have been inundated throughout the broadcast by the black commentator that the black quarterback from San Jose State is an "incredibly talented," "phenomenal prospect" who has a "rocket arm" but "just needs to get confidence, because he has only started 7 games this year so far."

the "phenomenal prospect" in question is kyle reed, a junior. he transferred from Cal a couple of years ago but hasn't been good enough to see the field until this year. his stats from last game were 8-18 for 50 yards and 3 interceptions.

that's right, with his "rocket arm" he managed to average 2.8 yards-per-attempt. ha!

until the last drive of the first half, against Boise State he was a poor 5-10 for 6 yards.

he did manage a couple of nice throws (and a couple of should-have-been intercepted ones) on the last drive, so at the half he is 10-17 for 58.

his white counterpart from Boise State, who "looks rusty" according to the aforementioned black commentator, is 13-21 for 151 yards, 2 touchdowns, and 1 interception.

yeah, nice call on who is the "real" talent, dude.

there have been a couple of white players from SJSU that have impressed in the first half, though. freshman wide receiver Josh Harrison has 3 catches for 17 yards to lead the team. all of those catches have been near the line of scrimmage, and he's juked and/or drug defenders each time. virtually all 17 yards have been after the catch.

senior safety Kyle Flynn has made several BIG hits and also forced a fumble by Ian Thompson on what would have been a touchdown.

i should've also mentioned the very solid linebacker from San Jose State, Travis Jones. he had a very good ball game.

also, freshman wideout Josh Harrison, who i mentioned previously, ran a 10.6-100 meters in high school, along with a 21.50-200 and a 23-feet 7.75-inch long jump. he is an exceptional athlete to keep an eye on.

it's a shame the quarterback for the Spartans is so very, very poor.

additionally, the announcers stated that Kevin Jurovich is done for the year with a bad case of mono. i knew he'd been ill, but apparently it was serious. before tonight's game, Jurovich was still second on the team in receiving yards and touchdown catches, and third in receptions. he's a very good player. perhaps he will get a medical red-shirt, since he only played in two games this year.

Jurovich should be able to get a medical redshirt. As long as a player does not play in over 4 games they are qualified. Also at least its mono he has (I know still not good to get though) and not a bone break or cartilage tear; you know something that would hamper his future athletic abilities a la Kyle Bell.
