Darn it! Scooped again by the D3 football guru. Ha.

I really need to sign in on the football sight during the football season, and not by habit keep coming in via D3 hoops!

I missed your link, BoBo, which is a surprise, considering it also contained a link to the UWEC 'Golds roster... Plus, there is one in the upper corner of the D3 football sight, which, as I plead guilty to, missed as well... I'm slipping... Ha.

But at least I saw there's WIAC games on Thursday, and I got my pick 'ems in this week on time. So any hole I will be climbing out of in that pool will be my poor prognosticating, and not because I missed a week. Ha.

Sorry to steal your thunder. But a new poster is trying to get up to speed on everything WIAC football, so many of the UWW regulars are getting into posting info for schools other than the Warhawks. We need more posters from schools not named Whitewater!!

Hope you stick around and become an EC regular!!

Platteville's ROSTER and TWO DEEP have been posted.

Thanks, BoBo. Reading's always been a problem for me!

Bobo, I've been following throughout but haven't engaged in any conversations. It takes my curiosity about a D1 transfer that used to be one of the highest rated players in WI (#3 in the state by scout.com and #5 in the state by rivals.com, not to mention his nationally ranked track abilities) to get me talking! I played with highly recruited guys that turned out to be busts in college, but not THAT HIGHLY touted. He has to have some great athletic talent. I'm wondering what happened to him over the past few years....Would love to get some insight on this guy....

Am I ready for another run?? YES SIR!!

Interested to see Demetrius Jackson on their O-Line (6'4", 335lbs

). I can give you his jersey number, but I don't think you'll have a problem spotting him.

I remember last year against an NAIA team (midland lutheran, i think), where they had some big boys on the o-line, but that game got out of reach in a hurry.

Those two were the heavy loaders. I personally had to try and just hold ground against the two of them almost every play that was by far the worst feeling ever knowing ur getting laid on by a 400 pound man.

dallas, Covington was mentioned in LL's coaches show as just one of many DB's in the picture. Basically, had his name called out and that's about it...you know more about him than I do. We'll soon find out what he might bring to this team.

Whoa, too much information!

Wednesday before the season opener and no official Warhawk's roster posted after cut downs on either the school site of warhawkfootball.com yet?

I just haven't been able to devote as much attention to the board so far this season but I must say, you gentlemen have been doing an outstanding job as of late. Glad to find out about the early deadline this week in the pick em's. Will get on that later today.

78, stop by our tailgate whichever game you make if it is at the Perk. I will buy you more than one beer.

You can add La Crosse, Stevens Point, and Stout to that question. I, too, wonder what they are all waiting for.

fbf413, what do you think of going with 2 freshman kickers -- including the starter out of the state of Florida?

And thanks to all of you who responded to the new poster. A lot of good information for everyone and much appreciated by this EC fan. I have to say that the WW fans are good sports even though they are the team we really, really want to beat

Does anyone know who the new qb for EC is going to be? From what I heard about the scrimmage, there wasn't a favorite and it appeared there were 3 qbs who were getting equal time.

http://athletics.uwstout.edu/roster.aspx?path=football - Stout's Roster and a click to the depth chart from there. It was up yesterday I believe.
