2009 Fall Camp Wrap Up


Posted Aug 24, 2009


Wes' podcast on the final 2009 Lobo football scrimmage and the ever popular Red Menace Eye is out taking a look at every position.

Here is Wes' final podcast from the 2009 Lobo football scrimmage:



Every practice session either spring or fall TheRedMenace.com has it’s always popular Eye Out for players. The “eye” doesn’t guarantee a starting spot or even playing time. All it is a list of players that we here at TheRedMenace.com have noticed during the session. With that here is whom the “eye” has fallen on this fall camp.

 

 

Quarterback- BR Holbrook
BR is the guy many thought would transfer after spring ball this year. Instead the RS-Fr shocked many folks by moving up the depth chart in week 2. Not sure if he has held onto the #2 spot at this time, but he has an excellent touch with the ball, and a year of experience might be all he needs.
Close second Donovan Porterie

 

Running Back- %%MATCH_5%%
From Camp Day 1 this fall it was obvious that Double D is a player. His talent and play on the field should have Lobo fans drooling. According to Demond himself he has to work on QB protection and in my opinion has been the starter since week 2.

 Wide Receiver- D. Jones… Who? D. Jones…

 #5 %%MATCH_10%% caught our eye from Day 1 and he has never looked back…
Jones is the player that I believe will benefit the most from the change of coaching staffs this year and we look for a big year from him… Besides anyone that is familiar with the music of “%%MATCH_12%%” understands the spoof of D. Jones… Who? D. Jones…
Close second Bryant Williams

 Offensive Line

 OG-Joshua Taufalele
He not only has the hair that those of us at The Red Menace love, but he is a flat out beast on field. He is consistent and I just love watching him play
Close second--- Can’t decide so %%MATCH_14%% and %%MATCH_11%%

 

Defensive Line

 DE DeAndre Davis
Coming off of an injury over spring Davis came out this fall possessed and looking to destroy QB’s and running backs. He is definitely a cornerstone of a solid defensive line rotation.
Close second- Jonathan Rainey

 

Linebacker-

%%MATCH_7%%

Dude flat out is nasty. His hitting is nasty. His ball hawking ability is nasty. He exudes nastiness and loves to hit people. Can’t think of a better combination for a linebacker
Close second: Carmen Messina

 Safety

Hey Bubba… as in %%MATCH_6%%, injury to %%MATCH_13%% really allowed Bubba more reps and all he did was make the most of it. #28 seemed to be in my camera lens and mind more than any other player this entire fall.
Close second: Frankie Solomon

 Cornerback-

%%MATCH_8%% (in red)- This was the toughest position to single out as young guys were working hard to pick up their assignments. Hooks really separated himself this past scrimmage with the bone jarring hit in the stadium. He has the most experience and was the DB we noticed the most
Close second %%MATCH_9%%

So the 2009 fall camp is over and now the Lobos move into preparing for %%MATCH_15%% A&M and the rest of the 2009 season.

The entire staff of TheRedMenace.com would like to thank Coach Locksley and his entire staff plus the Lobo football player for really going out of their way to make us feel at home, answer all our questions, and of course for the sacrifices they make on and off the field. All props go out to the guys as they make going out there and doing what we do so enjoyable.

Our season tickets are 62.00 for adults and 36.00 for youth tickets… Please contact The Red Menace today at 505-917-1407 to join up with us and celebrate Lobo football!
