Titan Nation I just want to take the time to thank you guys for these last 4yrs. Even through all the ups & downs I wouldn’t change a thing. It’s been a honor suiting up in that two tone blue. Although we fell short of our main goal this team is special & the future is bright. ⚔️
These stories are new to everyone but for the players we have heard/seen these far too many times. Trust me this is the last thing we want to be doing. To many really good players that have never touched the field on Sat. because of how they were treated around facility.

I remember whenever walking into the facility it would be difficult for black players to walk around the facility and be themselves. As if the way you grew up was the wrong way or wasn’t acceptable & that you would be judge by that and it would impact playing time.
Riley Moss had 5 PBU and a 76.4 PFF grade in zone coverage last year. Brown, Bland, and Diggs ranked 1, 2, and 3 in zone% in 2022. Seems like it could be a decent fit
Amani Hooker, who spent 70 percent of his defensive snaps in the slot-corner position, is the highest-graded draft eligible cornerback from the B1G this season.
Prayer works! So blessed to be apart of
