Nope, I was about to post the same thing. Like, "damn, I'm getting old."

Dude was one of the lone bright spots for us last year. This dude has some crazy potential

Same reaction here. Mount Carmel? I thought at first the article was about an official, or someone in a front office or on a coaching staff.

Good interview! C’mon Loomis extend him this year! Seems like a humble and cool dude.

Oh it's unreal how much potential he has. It was awesome to see a Saints WR who is flat out electric with the ball in his hands. I knew he could fly but I was really impressed with his hands, route running, and his ability to create after the catch. Also, he played bigger than his size would indicate.

The combination of Olave and Shaheed on the field at the same time is going to create so much space. They can stretch the field every which a way. If we get a QB who can throw it deep then watch out. Throw in another possession type of WR and a TE and we could be cooking.

True story... When graduating from 8th grade, I applied for admission to Xavier Prep. My mom said that I was crazy, but my godfather was one of the last males to graduate from there. I figured I would give it a shot since I had zero interest in attending St. Aug/Jesuit/Shaw/etc. and every interest in...

Anyway, congrats to Shaheed. Extend this man, Loomis.

Nope. They didn't begin re-intergrating those schools until well after I graduated. Ended up going NOPS.
