Signed, D3H
p.s. That kid appears to be at least six foot.
Unpossible. Offer lists are everything. He can't be a good player if he doesn't have a few reported offers from other BCS or top non-BCS programs.
/sarcasm
Thanks for the update, tini.
FIFY.
He could do his coaches a favor at this point by showing publicly that CU isn't the only school who wants him.

Regardless of current rating or reported offers, he's already got the size to play linebacker at this level and wants to be a Buff. Let's let his determination and Brian Cabral take over from here. Thrilled to have more local guys with existing ties to the program who want to stay close to home and be legacies. Hope it all works out come February, Clay. That kind of backstory plus effort in the weight room and on the field makes for fan favorite material.

I agree. Put out where he has offers from so that they raise his star ranking, and gives him more pull when talking to other potential Buffs.
Maybe is offers are to Adams State and Northern Colorado. Maybe (out of respect to the coaches) he's doing the right thing. Not all 17-18 year old kids are morons. :lol:
Yeah. If that was the case I'd be really glad he's not making a big deal out of it. What I've been hearing, though, is that they're major offers. I guess as long as guys like Callahan, Thurston and Baylis know the score as Clay is working them, it doesn't really matter whether we get to gush over those offers. :smile:

beware the habu
Welcome to AllBuffs.
He's better than that, but it's probably fair since he's a tweener moving to a new position.
Mountain Vista opened with a 50-7 win over Smoky Hill. Box Score in the Denver Post didn't show stats, so I'm not sure what Clay did in the game. They're at Pomona next week in case anyone here can get to that game for us next Friday. If someone goes, check out MV's Christian Thomas too. He could be a guy we look at to play fullback.
Buffscoop reported clay had like 10 tackles, 2 for loss, and the game was stopped due to the mercy rule

No FB for him this year, Vista doesn't really go that route in their offense. Due to some injuries on the DL and a change in defensive scheme for some of the games (using a 4-3 instead of 3-4) Clay's playing some DE again this season. They've moved him around a lot, it seems to change from week to week...
I was looking at the ThunderRidge game stats. Sounded like a tough night. From the box score, it looked like you got down early and then couldn't protect the QB. Did Vista lose some OL/DL?

Unfortunately we've lost players at almost every key position this season, so healthy players are being asked to step into lots of different roles. TRidge/Vista is always an emotional game for both sides, both sides are usually pretty equal in talent, have all played against each other since they were in youth football. Most often comes down to freak plays, turnovers and which coach can capitalize on those, but historically has always gone in TRidge favor (Vista has never beaten them in the brief history of both schools). We had 2 defensive touchdowns in the 4th Q and the only offensive touchdown was after an interception and had Clay and Danny Otsuki in at OL to punch it in...we burned 2 timeouts trying to figure out an extra point...can't say much more, just SMH. Very unfortunate and disappointing, but that's life sometimes.
Not sure if this link will work, but this was a bit of a bright spot from that night for me, at least:

:lol: Great photo! can you reset that play? where's the ball? result of play? just curious, thanks.

Not sure which play it was, he was in the QB's face a lot that night. Could probably figure it out after watching the film, but the SIXTH loss to TRidge still stings a bit too much right now so I haven't really revisited that yet
Maybe I'll be able to watch it after the season when we put together some highlights for him from the year!
per adam's twitter account... norgard is expected to be moved to fullback
That fills a huge need. Clay needs to get to work with Connor as soon as possible. We need him from the first game.

Obviously I'm still recovering from the previous regime because this statement scared me.

this statement still scares me a bit. I hope he is okay with switching to offense. Could it be a similar Mericic type situation at Stanford where he plays both ways? That would be fit nicely..
We could just have one of our corners bulk up and turn them into a lb.
