The Sock 'Em, Bust 'Em Board Because that's our custom

Spring semester football arrivals

There are six, so far, as of Tuesday morning. I use that as my means of measure because someone might have been processed after business hours Monday, the first day of the semester, and didn’t show up until this morning. And I say that because three junior college players are not yet in the system.

One junior college player is here and thank goodness for that, for his name is Dreamius Smith. And can we help this guy out with the culture shock?

High school players enrolled for and likely in class are quarterback Chavas Rawlins, running back Wendell Smallwood, receiver Dakiel Shorts, linebacker Hodari Christian and safety Malik Greaves. Junior college receivers Ronald Carswell and Kevin White and safety Terrell Pinson are not yet in the system.

Going by confirmations and other avenues of validation, like Twitter, it looks like all of the kids enrolled are in class, though short of showing up at classes and identifying a person and marking him off the list, it’s hard to say for certain. The three signed junior college players not yet registered have until Friday, and that’s when WVU will likely make the additions official.

Meantime, gasp at the tale of Mr. Rawlins.
