Lindsay Crook professional rugby player
Making the rounds to different message boards, it would seem we have signed a player from the Australian Sevens rugby circuit. Apparently, he's 6'2 runs the 40 in 4.45 and weighs 220+ ... 0_o
http://www2.pictures.zimbio.com/gi/L...mVANzYdhql.jpg The one holding the ball. Apparently, he's really good. He was going to be on the Australian national team and compete in the 2016 Olympics. I guess he wanted to really play our style of ball? At any rate, he's 20 years old and seems in damn good shape. I don't know whether he can punt or not. Can't hurt to have an elite level athlete, even if he's never played before. On the recruiting section of the csnbbs site, as well as the front page of the 247 site.

I've found out that's actually not a picture of him.

Since we don't have any recruiting data on him, here's a video. Sure many have already seen it but if you haven't. Pretty good runner, his tackling intrigues me. I think he'd be a pretty good H-back or a linebacker on the other side of the ball. Last edited by Nomadic1; 04-21-2013 at 09:35 PM. |

I still don't understand how a player who played sports professionally keeps his amateur status with the way the NCAA is on these things. Regardless, I'm glad to have him. It's too bad about his injury, especially with an ACL tear he probably won't even be able to practice with the team this year to help adjust him to football.
