So coach Jeter just offered Anthony Sayles a 2021 pg from Niles Notre Dame. He’s a D1 Qb prospect as well I’m wondering if coach Jeter and coach could possibly double team it. I know it’s harder for guys who are basketball and football. We’ve had some pretty successful Football and baseball players in the past.

I see Hank Alvey from Illini bluffs is in the Hall this weekend. Not that he would be a great goalkeeper for Dr. EJ, I could see him as more of a tight end kind of guy. Soft hands are a plus. Did we give him a look-see before he committed to Lehigh for hoops?

He’s soft against small school high school teams I don’t see him doing much at the next level

Looks like he is a "project". But so was Gilbeck.

With the way the portal rolls these days, it's entirely possible he could decide to come back "home" in a few years and we could give him a shot if he's decent at Lehigh.
