@UNTLiferhas first dibs at him.

Here is last year’s thread for reference

 

I will give up my adoption of Shorter.  This may be a tad superstitious, but I have had him since he stepped on campus and he has been hurt every year.  Time for someone to spread some good ju-ju in his direction.

If Leota gets hurt, I am done with this little exercise and  will observe from the sidelines.

Sorry @JonnyeagleI am keeping my guy this year!

Give me #0 the kicker....Ethan Mooney....

 

 

[southsideguy]

who picks a kicker.....😉

 

[southsideguy]

I am taking SL this year and maybe I can give him some advice or Bryce #14. If he doesn't play maybe I will at least get invited to dinner at his mom's house.

[meangreen11]

I will take WR Bryson Jackson.  I see him having a good year.

I did Sir... perhaps he's the one to save our skins with time expiring..........

[MGNation92]

Had Carson Kropp last year and he didn't do much, only playing special teams. Hoping he's put in the DE/LB rotation more this season, but for this year I'm adopting #9 Ja'Mori Maclin. Dude is gonna be a stud for us

This is the weirdest tradition we have here in Gomeangreen. Is this a thing on all message boards or we just being creepy “adopting” players. 

[Jonnyeagle]

OK does anyone have Cam Robertson?  I didn't see that anyone has picked him yet but may have missed.  For now I am going with him.  https://meangreensports.com/sports/football/roster/cam-robertson/5662

Since it is game week and nobody has picked him up yet, I will add Mazin Richards on defense to go with my already adopted Latrell Neville on offense.

I really like this young man.  I was impressed he is already starting in his first season with the squad.

[Hookset]

I am hoping he is an opposing offense’s worst nightmare.

Good call, but Trieb is already taken.

Is he starting?  He was listed as an “or” with Sifa Leota.

My guy with the best name on the team needs a representative, and I’m here for it

I'm rooting for Moh too! Sounds like he did some fine work at his HS. And he chose us over Rice.

I agree with all of this.  Anything - ANYTHING - to get a healthy Shorter all year.

I think @UNTLifershould “adopt” the opposing team’s QB1 each week.

I second this motion.  All in favor?

[UNTLifer]

I adopt Gavin Hardison for week one.  I will also take his backup. 
 

[GrayEagle]

I'll adopt a player who won't see a lot of action this year other than special teams.  Why?  Because he plays behind our best player.  If I'm still on this side of the grass next year I'll adopt him again.

I hope you stay on this side too bud. It wouldn’t be the same without you.
