You guys know what is the X factor with Bland? It's not his ability, though we know by this that he's a stud…his leadership is next level. This is a guy who sees the potential at FAU and is ACTIVELY helping in the recruiting of other O linemen this class. Can't wait to see the line he's able to help us put together

Yes if we have a decent team we will have a decent crowd. The students wholeheartedly want this team to be winners and to support them.

And the rest of the community will adopt this team once there's something to brag about, something to get behind. People in Tuscaloosa, Austin and Ann Arbor show up every Saturday in droves because their team has established a long-standing history of winning. I figure we need about a decade of winning seasons with post-season appearances to really solidify our status as something to care about in the community.

Bam Howard, All Area Big School Offensive Player of the Year ( Palm Beach Post )

Is Bam still a go? I went to one of his games this past season (against my Alma Mater, Wellington High School) and he flat out torched the defense. I think I remembering hearing that grades were an issue with this kid. Did he get that cleaned up?

Just watched Dj Juste's highlights. This kid looks as elusive as they come in the open field and can turn on the jets to get away. He'd be a great fit for the Owls as a dual threat QB like it seems FAU wants but I think his athleticism would be better suited as a WR given we have a good QB.

I have no info on Bam's test scores. It would be great for us if he did but if he didn't he will do the juco route. Unfortunately  for him he didn't take school too serious until the last couple of years. But now he is doing the right thing and even if he does the juco, he will turn out OK. He is a unique athlete.

I think you misread what they are saying replace "given" with "if"

January 18th will be a huge weekend for recruiting as far as lineman go. As far as I know FAU has 4 coming in as Bland, Schafenacker, Nick Haynes and Jace Banfell all are visiting. If we can swing Schafenacker from Connectictut and get 3* Nick Haynes this could be the our future line and something special.

I kick cancers ass and that's all there is to it..
