Jerry Lovelocke? Kent State and Temple have great teams? This young man may not have the IQ to play at UA. lofl
Isn't Nate Carpenter the younger brother of Bobby Carpenter (OSU, Cowboys) ?
Sounds like Lovelocke has taken one too many sack-hits to the noggin. Last time Kent State was considered a "great team," I think Nixon was vice-president.
Keith Sconiers , WR, Oak lawn Richards high school Illinois- 3 star from Rivals.com AND EDGYTIM.COM. —FILM ON RIVALS.COM.- has an Akron offer along with offers from Minnesota, Indiana, Arizonia , E. Michigan, Louisville and others. Called possibly the best athlete in ILLINOIS BY ONE RECRUITER. 6 ft 3 ins.- 180 pounds- played on state basketball championship team and runs track. Would be great a WR, with the coaches that Akron has. Being recruited by coach Brian Callahan.
