His coach says that he can't be fooled or blocked and can't run away from him because of his speed. Originally he is from the Demacratic Republic of Congo.

He wants to major in mechanical engineering.

I wonder if anyone has taken him over to our new Mechanical Engineering building?

Originally he is from the Dominican Republic in Congo.

Is he from Congo via the Dominican Republic? Sounds good nonetheless

Speed reading - made a mistake, which was corrected.

There's a country ruled by Dom DeLuise?

that article also had the first real info on what kind of player OLM Kelley Turner had at HP this year. He made Second Team All Area and it said he had 140 knockdown blocks and allowed no sacks and no "Pressures". Josh Leribeus made First Team All Area and averaged 6 knockdowns per game.

Yes, but his people executed him after they were forced to watch both Cannonball Run movies.

I heard several other schools have gotten in on Yenga in a hurry over the last week or two. Sounds to me like he's one of those guys whose size made many schools hesitant to offer, but a lot of folks realize he can really play. Once someone had the guts to offer him, others are following suit. But the more I read about him, the better he sounds, and the more I want to see him in red and blue.
