With Ayir at Wyoming, Walter at Ohio, Reich at Nova and Coulson at Kent State. Figured this would be good spot to track our guys. Good pre-season press for Walter below. SOV posted a feature article on Ayir in the transfer thread. Also of note, Reich is listed on the Nova site at 265 which means he bulked up another 10-15 lbs. I believe Walter and Reich will start and am curious to see Ayir’s role in the Wyoming more pass oriented offense. ohiobobcats.com/news/2023/8/2/ohio-football-fall-camp-day-seven-checking-in-with-the-defense.aspx“The Bobcats are returning several key leaders on defense. Bryce Houston, Keye Thompson, Rodney Matthews, Justin Birchette and Watkins have established their roles as leaders with their play throughout past seasons and they're all back for 2023. Thompson led Ohio with 96 total tackles, 51 assisted and 45 solo, last season. Houston followed him with 76 total tackles, 40 solo and 36 assisted. The two provided a major push for Ohio when it needed it most, and look to do so as well this season. However, there are also some newcomers who have stepped up. "Walter Reynolds has been unbelievable. He's so intelligent and very mature. He's been an incredible lift to the defense," Nowinsky said. Reynolds, a graduate student safety, came to Ohio from Holy Cross where he was team captain in 2022. He is one of a few newcomers who will boost Ohio's defensive attack. Reynolds ended last season with a career-high 59 tackles, including 41 solo.”

Nice thread, midwest. Look forward to seeing how our guys perform this year elsewhere.

I guess we'll have to acknowledge to the woke HC professors that HC has become a football factory, too much entertainment going on! 😉🤣

Ohio D running a 3-3-5. Very undersized and clearly built for speed. Game @ San Diego St is on national TV (FS1 - 7pm EST) in case anyone wants to tune in Saturday night. Line indicates it should be one of the more competitive Week 0 games. Ohio + 2.5

It's generally used when someone doesn't have an actual idea to express.

Do we really need to go there? Glad to see HHC already caught himself and deleted. I mean I'm happy to write a thesis on the term as it's been around for almost 100 years. However, the origin story is very unpleasant to read about and our teammates/alums of Color shouldn't need to rehash it on a FOOTBALL BOARD!

Reynolds finished with 6 tackles, 2 solos, 1 TFL. He did have a mixup in coverage on a SDSU TD but I am not too sure who actually blew the coverage as Walter's guy went in motion I think.

Ohio’s D played outstanding and good enough to win. Only gave up 308 yards of total offense. Walter clearly the captain of the secondary yelling out all the pre snap calls. Bobcats QB throwing 3 picks twice creating short fields for SDSU was the difference. Ohio had over 70 yards more in total offense. Ohio should be top 3 in the MAC if they stay healthy.

The backup was in over his head. Bobcats hung in there and I thought Walter played well.

Wyoming beats Texas Texas 35-33 in 2OT. Good for them. Ayir finished with only the one catch but he was out there all the time.

The play-by-play announcer said he's the fastest guy on the team and a HC transfer.

A small nitpick but if the announcer says "grad transfer from Holy Cross" it sounds less like players are fleeing HC football and more like the player is very accomplished as an FBS FB player by already successfully earning his degree at HC and being a grad student at FBS U. But I can't micromanage CBS.🙂
