practice comments....

I think thats Troiani

"the new kid is a walkon...dont know his name...he was a soccer player in high school from what i was told....he appeared to be a little nervous....i guess he had 3-4 kicks during the morning practice and then they gave him more work in the afternoon to see how he would handle the pressure"

I think that is the Troiani kid I was asking about earlier in the thread. He went to THS or THN. I know his uncles, both attorneys. His uncle is Bil Troiani who still has some THS or THN records at QB he set in the 80s or 90s.

The new kicker is from Frankfort, IN. His last name is Martinez: 5'11", 155#.

correction

OK, I stand corrected...the Troiani kid may still be in H.S....all I know is that there is talk he may try and walk on and kick too. thanks

Interesting for me to see the Troiani name mentioned. I coached three Troiani boys in Youth League Football back in the mid-70's. Billy was the middle brother, Chuck the oldest and Marty the youngest. All three were outstanding athletes.

Yeah I agree with you about that Darrell Ricker! I've been to a few practices and he gets an interception at almost every practice. He doesn't get as many reps as the other LB but makes more plays. He definitely doesn't look like a LB but he sure plays like one.
