Who's Margus Hint?

Thanks for catching that — fixed.

Proving that PonyPride can take a Hint.

[SMU21TCU10]

Margus is so cool.

Proving that PonyPride can take a Hint.

Yeah, as long as it's not too subtle....

[The PonyGrad]

Wow - first an ESPN sticker and now POW. Not bad for his first year in football!

[ponyte]

Congrats. Well done Margus.

[Dooby]

Congrats, Margus.

I fully concede that after the one August practice I saw, I declared him a complete project and was totally unimpressed.

[PonyPower]

I'm willing to bet this isn't the last time he wins this award. The man is just beginning to learn the game, and has three blocked kicks in two weeks?

Keep it up, Margus!

[Alaric]

Congrats, Margus.

I fully concede that after the one August practice I saw, I declared him a complete project and was totally unimpressed.

Don't be too [deleted] yourself - I saw a few of those practices where he was obviously confused and would just kind of stand up and freeze. That didn't look good, just gotta remember all the raw potential

[westexSMU]

I suspect Margus will block some more kicking attempts this year. This young man is already giving us another chance to WIN this year. He has a bright future if he keeps working at it.
