Just wanted to make sure we had the same info; which it sounds like we do!

I will inquire why the release was contrary…

Now, Gedel Merizius is a hell of a trivia question for older Owl fans, I didn't even remember him until I saw his name. Was he starting across from Corey Small?

Wording on the release was off, I have adjusted:

AND more Love for Smith, this time on the National Level!

After taking part in several game-changing plays for Florida Atlantic in its 28-10 win at South Florida, sophomore cornerback D'Joun Smith has been named the Jim Thorpe National Defensive Back of the Week.

With South Florida driving midway through the fourth quarter in a two-possession game, Smith intercepted a pass and returned it 75 yards for a touchdown that sealed the game. Earlier in the game, he forced a fumble that setup a short field for the Owls as they scored a touchdown six plays later to go up 21-10.

Smith also totaled four tackles in the game including one for a loss and his pass breakup came on a third down in the first quarter, forcing the Bulls to settle for a field goal.
