"The Swamp"


On Saturday November 22, 2008 I had the opportunity to play my last game in Florida, in the Swamp. The swamp was everything I had hoped it would be, it was loud, beautiful, and in your face, I have never seen fans that much into a team in my life. It was truly a college environment unlike no other. Now as I wrap up my football career it is time for me to set my sites on a new way of life, a life of work and relaxation. I am just so ecstatic of what life has in stored for me now... As for my teammates still on the team I wish them the best of luck and always represent The Citadel in the best of your abilities.

"My Last Home Game"

As the week progressed onto Saturday I began realizing that this weekend would be my last time playing in Johnson Hagood Stadium. I didn't realize that I would feel as sad as I did after the game against University of Tennessee Chatanooga. The Mocs gave us a great game as we defeated them 24-21 at the end of the 4th quarter. Friday night in the hotel in North Charleston my teammates had promised me the game of my life and that is exactly what they did. We fought and scratched our way to a highly deserved win. Go bulldogs...

"Just stopping By"


Hi everyone I was just thinking about this weekend's game and I felt it was imperative for me to share my thoughts with you about this particular game. The game played by The Citadel and Wofford is one that many one would say is just another game, but for The Citadel and its players it is one that is always played with high emotion. The reason is because of the history that dates back between the two schools, Wofford was always known as the privilidged upper class guys, and The Citadel was more of the blue collar guys that worked hard for everything. I can't wait to play these guys on Saturday in their stadium, I think it is going to be another great one...

Oh yeah don't forget to check us out on CSS the network for southern sports this weekend...

"Emotion is Key"

Today as I write this entry I feel assured that the bulldogs still have the desire and passion that we initially had as the season began. These particular emotions were displayed countless times on Saturday evening during the game against Georgia Southern Eagles. The team came out amped and ready for anything that the Eagles would bring. Many of the players played far above and beyond their level of play by making and executing plays that were not designed for them to make. Overall I must say that I am extremely proud of the dogs and what we did this weekend, although we suffered another hurting defeat in triple overtime against the Georgia Southern Eagles.
