Once, just once, I would like to hear one of our athletes say that they spend their off time doing something other than "playing video games". I mean, c'mon, they are students. Don't they ever study, complete course work, go to the library, volunteer in the community, read good literature, do actual grown-up stuff, focus on getting a marketable degree, look forward to creating a life after football? Pet peeve number one. Call me old-fashioned.

The real answer for half of them, if they were honest, would be drinking beer, banging chicks, and trying to hurt people on the football field. Sorry for letting you know.

Edited: it's not anywhere close to half of them. It might be a few and oh the stories I could tell.....but never will.

I have no problem with them playing video games. This isn't a solitary activity anymore. I have kids about their age and this is something they do to be social with their real life friends, whether in person or remote. All good with me so long as they play in moderation.

You're old-fashioned.

And of course they study, complete course work, go to class and the library. But those things aren't done in their "free time", which clearly is the intent of the question. Ask me what I do in my spare time and "excel spreadsheets" isn't going to be my response.

And no one plays D&D anymore like you probably did in college.

Beg to differ on your last point. Much more popular than you think. And with kids that you wouldn't think played.
 
Braydon will be playing DT. He is a redshirt Junior, 6'2', weighing 305#s. His number is 99.

Braydon comes from Hawaii (our Hawaii connection).

His last school was Utah State. To me this is a junior college. It plays in the SoCal FB Association (SCFA)
---- he had 2nd team honors playing defense

He has the frame and body build to be a good DT. However, he will have to prove himself playing in the BSC with his on field results.

The video above shows his expectations - "a lot of sacks". Wants to play hard and win.

We need him this year at DT during games. I wish him the best. I feel he will be a major contributor on defense.
 
The University Marketing and Communications Team should book Jelly Roll and Iam Tongi for a concert next year as soon as possible.

I still play video games and I’m almost 50😂. I just beat down #3 NDSU 101-20 the other night.

They do all of that. But when asked "what do you do for fun," not many people on the planet would answer "complete my coursework, go to the library, and then I focus on getting a marketable degree." It isn't that they don't do those things and volunteer, just not how they would answer a question about what they do for fun.
 
Justus is playing as a senior. He is #25. Plays DB.

Formerly a 2 way player who played QB, a transfer from University of Mary.

To me he will be a defensive role player. His is 5' 11', has quickness and FB smarts. I can see why the Griz picked him up. He can be a spark with a pick six.
