    If he graduates, that is an exception to the 2 year rule. He will graduate from Wisky this summer and should join the Panthers. NCAA needs to approve and should hear something this month.

      Did anything happen with this? I'm wondering who's going to start at MLB?

          Mahoney played middle during the spring. With Jamar T. and LJ Fort on the outsides.

            They also experimented with Thompson and Scott at the Safety positions and Smith, Mahoney and Fort at LB

              I could see him being used at the LE position a la Justin Kirk last year.

                Thanks. I've heard some good things about LJ Fort. Does anyone have any "in" on feedback from the coaches or players as to what his game is like?

                  Fort is going to be a great player for us. I think all you need to know about how the coaches feel about him, is look at last season when they put him on the field as a true freshman on a great team.

                    I could see Jamar back at Saftey. He is pretty fast and has some good hands. He always seems to be in the right spot at the right time, which could be huge for us in the secondary.

                      Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier'n puttin' it back.

                        Word is that the NCAA has given the OK on Hodge, so he should be joining the Panthers for camp.

                          That would be great if true. It really helps in replacing Harris who did a ton for our D in the last two years.

                            Absolutely...of the kids we currently have on roster, he is the best fit to replace Lloyd. Same kind of player. I think Jamar would be all MVFC back there and we certainly have more bodies with experience at LB than in the defensive backfield. I hear that Quinton Scott has done a good job back there too since he had tried out the backfield. With Fort, Smith, Mahoney, Gerard, and Jackson (I've heard good things about him also) to fill the LB positions, moving Thompson would go a LONG ways towards solving our backfield issues.

                              Scott must be freak winning the MVC Long Jump at 24 feet
                              "We're not an ordinary school," said Fort. "We have tradition. We have a good team year after year. We rebuild, and it doesn't matter who we have coming back."
