Former RB from L.D. Bell

[SilverEagle]

One of my nephews told me last night that Jeremie Brown, formerly of L.D. Bell has enrolled at North Texas. He started out his career playing for Fordham. Here is his profile.

Any idea if he plans on trying to walk on?

Since they are D-1AA - Patriot Conference - could he walk-on in the fall and, if he has the mettle and the might, play this season?

It's my nephews belief that he will try and walk-on at North Texas this fall. As to the eligibility issue......I'm as baffled about the rules as I am the tax code.

Lose a Jeremy Brown at RB and gain a Jeremie Brown at RB!

Any idea why he never played at Fordham?

1 game in 2 seasons.

We are pretty deep at RB, can anyone find video of him?

I was thinking the same thing but you put it much more tactfully (than I would have).

Remember, there's a limit of 105 when the season starts and we have Byrd, Jimmerson, Pegram, Lewis, Rollins, E Evans and Wilhite ahead of him and the first five are scholarship athletes. Eric Evans averaged more than 10 yards per carry his senior year and Wilhite has been a squadman for several years and did well in the spring scrimmage. Tough competition.

Konackas is a running back or so I think I read last year. Don't see his name up there.

6' 195? Move to safety?

set a school record in the team 4x200 relay.

would make alot of sense for the coaches to move him to DB.

Best of luck.

now if he wants to pack on an extra buck.50 and play some d-line then by all means

Konockus Sashington has been moved to running back at least once but he lettered on special teams. I do believe that he has had one carry as a running back though. My understanding is that he was moved to defense where he at least won't be #8 or #9 on the depth chart.

As to his bulking up to play DT, he'd better hurry up because he's a senior.
