Roger T. Pipe (Return to Top)
Don't let the new box cover fool you. This series found its stride early on and they haven't really changed things up very much. It is a nicely shot line that features genuine Asian girls working with American or European guys. It is a great idea to use the local girls with dudes who can actually bring something to the table. The girls aren't always as pretty as their Amer-Asian porn counterparts and few of them fuck like porn chicks from the Valley, but that can be a good thing on many levels. The sex often comes across as more real and the women are certainly fresh and look great in the outdoor settings we usually find them in. The girls all have single names and I have to wonder if they even perform in other flicks or if Hustler finds chicks who do it once for a little extra cash and then go back to hooking... errrrrr school. ...

Event Navigation
Agent Orange Exposure results in consequential diseases to Vietnam Vets
Chapter 528 is sponsoring an Agent Orange Town Hall on Saturday, April 26, 2014, at Northville High School. The objective is to inform and register veterans, their families and community, that have been affected by Agent Orange and other dioxins used during the Vietnam War up to the present.
The effects of these dioxins are carried in the DNA of the affected person for up to seven generations. It is important that this information be made available to all concerned, including the general public and medical profession. The National Academy of Sciences and Veterans Administration has connected Agent Orange and other dioxin exposure during this period, to include 12 diseases, 38 cancers, and 20 birth defects. Our veterans will not be around to make future generations aware of the possible debilitating health problems passed on to their heirs. This Town Hall will be a stepping stone.
Through education people will be able to use the resources available to obtain help for themselves, their family and also how to contact their legislators about these poisons that are affecting their everyone's wellbeing.

"All the residents of the learning and rehabilitation center Dzherela are called 'children', regardless of their age. They are interested in strangers, like to communicate and are friendly towards people. On the day this photo was taken my friends, who are studying social work, were going to visit Dzherela and invited me along. Only one girl from the group we visited was sad and silent. She didn't say a single word the whole evening. As I understood, she suffers from autism. During the day we organised dances for the children with merry rousing music, showed them different movements. All the time I was watching that girl and this was the only moment she smiled."

"It was a real rough moment for us," Carrasquillo said in a telephone interview.
But his voice brightened as he recalled three straight days of meeting the two boys — one 3 1/2 and the other almost 2 — who live at different orphanages in the southern city of Rostov-on-Don.
"We know both boys would be a great addition to our family," Carrasquillo said. "You feel a bond to them already even after one visit, and every day you got a little closer."
He and his wife, who committed themselves to adoption even before they married, won't be looking to another country until they get a clear answer from Russia.
"We don't want to consider another option until we know this option is closed to us," said Carrasquillo.
Some families caught in the diplomatic limbo have decided not to speak publicly about their situation for fear there might be negative repercussions.
But Wendy Rella, a hair stylist from Bedford, N.H., said she and her husband, Peter, are taking an outspoken approach. They have a 4-year-old daughter, Alina, whom they adopted from Russia in 2009, and they were back in Russia last month visiting a 10-month-old boy they hope to add to their family.
News of the ban broke soon after they'd completed their 20-hour trip to Vladivostock, on Russia's Pacific Coast, to visit the boy.
"You feel sick to your stomach, wondering, 'What's the deal here?'" Wendy Rella recalled.
Since returning home, Rella has been writing to her U.S. senators, sharing her story with local media, and following the news in Russia — including a march Sunday in Moscow protesting the adoption ban.
"If we stay quiet, they won't know who we are," Rella said. "I'm afraid we're going to be forgotten about. I don't want people to stop marching, to stop talking about it ... I keep thinking we are going to get him home."
Like the Rellas, Kurt and Ann Suhs are hoping to adopt a sibling for a child they previously adopted from Russia — in their case, it's 7-year-old Ben.
Kurt Suhs, who works for an insurance company in the Atlanta area, said his grandmother was Russian. So there's an element of heritage at work as they try to expand their family even at costs that typically exceed $50,000 per adoption from Russia,
"Russians are good people," Suhs said. "You just have to hope people put aside the politics and do the right thing for the kids."
The immediate cause of Russia's ban was to retaliate for the new U.S. law targeting Russians accused of human rights abuses. But the ban also reflects long-brewing resentment in Russia over the 60,000 Russian children who have been adopted by Americans in the past two decades, 19 of whom have died.
UNICEF estimates there are about 740,000 children not in parental custody in Russia — and 105,000 live in orphanages. Russia has been trying to increase domestic adoptions and says about 18,000 Russians are on the waiting list to adopt a child.
The number of domestic adoptions fell in recent years: Russians in 2011 adopted 7,416 children, a drop of more than 2,100 from 2007, according to Education Ministry figures published in the newspaper Komsomolskaya Pravda.
The same report showed that Americans adopted 956 Russian children in 2011, 89 of them classified as disabled.
Chuck Johnson of the Virginia-based National Council for Adoption has commended Russia for trying to improve its child-welfare system, and was elated in November when the U.S. and Russia completed a long-in-the-works adoption treaty. Now, he's dismayed at the ban and its emotional toll on the affected U.S. families.
"The way the information is being given out is really cruel," he said. "This has been a very discouraging and bitter outcome."
For the Bonners, however, there's no option but to persevere — especially in light of bureaucratic setbacks last year that twice made them think their adoption quest was doomed.
"Two times it looked like there was no way it was going to work out, and we grieved through that," Jeana Bonner said. "It just hurts and is so painful.
"This time we're going to be a hopeful as possible. We're not going to give up until we've exhausted every possible avenue."
David Crary reported from New York.

A distinct voice in gay fiction, multi-award-winning author JOSH LANYON has been writing gay mystery, adventure and romance for over a decade. In addition to numerous short stories, novellas, and novels, Josh is the author of the critically acclaimed Adrien English series, including The Hell You Say, winner of the 2006 USABookNews awards for GLBT Fiction. Josh is an Eppie Award winner and a three-time Lambda Literary Award finalist.
Review by:
on Aug. 31, 2013 :
I have just finished this novella and let me tell you that till the very end I was absolutely sure about one character being the murderer (and at some point doubting that there had been a murder at all), but I was wrong. And I love it when I am wrong! It means that the plot is unpredictable.
The novella is yet another masterpiece from Josh. Moody, dark, bittersweet. Some scenes at the lighthouse gave me real shivers. I loved the atmosphere and how the main protagonist sees the outside world from the point of colours/paint he uses. Quite lovely.
My only complaint - it is short! (I can never have enough of Josh's writing!)

Really enjoyed our cooking class. The owners and staff were very helpful, friendly and made our stay very pleasant. Lots of neat Presidential memorabilia in the culinary museum and historic house.

The porch is a wonderful place to sit and watch and allow yourself to relax.

We stayed for 2 nights at The Inn of the Patriots and THOROUGHLY enjoyed the experience! Marti and Stormy (the owners) do a spectacular job and serve some of the best home cooked breakfasts we've encountered ANYWHERE. Their dinner recommendations led us to a couple of fabulous (and quite reasonable) restaurants in the area and Marti's tours of the historical memorabilia that fill the Inn were excellent. You can't go wrong with a stay at The Inn of the Patriots!!

Loved the history and staying in the house. If only the walls could talk, the stories they would tell.

Went for overnight and to have cooking class with Marti. Stayed in the Grover Cleaveland room ( Which was the largest room). Room very comfortable although the bathroom was small. Nice breakfast and had cooking class with Marti, just my husband and me. Very enjoyable visit. The only complaint was that their restaurant is closed on Monday.

My mother and I stayed at here and we absolutely loved it!! This place is so charming and there is a lot to do in nearby Shelby. The rooms are all uniquely decorated and cozy. The large front porch with the rocking chairs is very inviting. Martin is very personal and has a great knowledge of history. I am not a big history buff, but after spending the night at this place, I have become more interested in our history. I am going back this weekend and I cannot wait!

We thoroughly enjoyed a quiet getaway. Front porch swings were inviting. Breakfasts were excellent. Everyone was warm and friendly. Tour was enjoyable. Would return.

Staying at The Inn of The Patriots was an experience of a lifetime!!!!
4.6 on April 29, 2015
Perhaps I did not read the fine print, but we were in for a most pleasant surprise during our stay at The Inn of the Patriots. We had an outstanding breakfast for two mornings prepared by the resident chefs. After breakfast, we were treated to a tour of the Inn, which houses a museum of presidential culinary items--lots of historical insight. Our bedroom was a mini-museum and our king bed was most comfortable. There was enough to do in the local area that we deemed our stay at The Inn of the Patriots to be quite a nice getaway.

The Ice Cream Queen of Orchard Street by Susan Jane Gillman
April 30, 2015 7:30 p.m. in library classroom.
In 1913, Malka Treynovsky flees Russia for New York with her family. Shortly after, Malka is crippled and abandoned in the street and is taken in by an Italian ices peddler. She manages to survive through cunning and inventiveness and slowly, she transforms herself into Lillian Dunkle, "The Ice Cream Queen." Lillian's rise to fame and fortune spans seventy years and is inextricably linked to the course of American history itself. Conniving, profane, and irreverent, she is a supremely complex woman who prefers a good stiff drink to an ice cream cone. And when her past begins to catch up with her, everything she has spent her life building is at stake.
The Betrayers by David Bezmozgis
June 4, 2015 7:30 p.m.
The story depicts one fraught, momentous day in the life of Baruch Kotler, a Soviet Jewish dissident who now finds himself a disgraced Israeli politician. When he refuses to back down from a contrary but principled stand regarding the settlements in the West Bank, his political opponents expose his affair with a mistress decades his junior, and the besieged couple escapes to Yalta, where Kotler comes face-to-face with the former friend whose denunciation sent him to the Gulag almost forty years earlier.

Oh, no: Here comes "Open Borders For Teddy"
First, KennedyCare.
Next up: ShamnesTeddy.
Morton Kondracke is leading the charge:
Along with a health care reform bill, it would be a fitting tribute to the late Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.) if Congress could act on his other great unfinished cause: immigration reform.
For all his liberal Democratic passion, Kennedy understood — as few of his colleagues seem to nowadays — the importance of working on a bipartisan basis to get legislation passed.
He worked with President George W. Bush to pass No Child Left Behind education reform and a Medicare prescription drug law, though he ultimately opposed the final bill as insufficiently generous.
Kennedy's death undoubtedly will elicit calls to get health care reform legislation passed in his memory, but reforming the immigration system was also one of his major goals yet unreached…
…Obama campaigned in 2008 promising that comprehensive immigration reform would be on his first-year agenda, but during a trip to Mexico this month, he said it had to be put off until 2009, an election year.
The administration is certain to call for swift action on health care reform as a tribute to Kennedy. But it also should accelerate work on immigration reform in his name.
The mad rush to capitalize on Kennedy's death is yet the latest manifestation of Rahm Emanuel's decree to never allow a crisis to go to waste.

Cameron MacNeil's decorating tips.
Q. I need help choosing ceiling lights for my front foyer; I'd like to replace the two existing ones with matching lanterns. The space is 12' x 18', with a 9' ceiling, and includes a closet by the door and a staircase. What size of fixture do you think I need?
— M.M., via email (To submit your own question, see our Ask A Designer™ page.)
A. Your foyer is already great — I love the character of the transom and the staircase! I think the Oxford lantern (shown) would be perfect here. At 10" square and nearly 18" high, it's grand enough, and using two the same size will balance the space.
Your foyer can also handle more furniture and detail. Let's bring some drama to the space by painting the inside of your front door Black (2132-10) from the Colour Preview collection by Benjamin Moore. I know, it sounds risky, but it'll look great with your dark banister. A console table against the wall where your mirror is now will make a convenient spot for dropping mail and keys. I think a demilune table, like Bernhardt's Huntington style (shown), will work — the angled stretcher at the bottom provides an unexpected graphic touch.
You could either keep the mirror you have now (just raise it a bit) or replace it with some artwork. A grouping of four or six etchings, like those by Lyndi Sales (shown), will build on the traditional architectural details, as in the Inspiration shot. I'd also like to see a tailored bench by the railing instead of your floral chair. Crate & Barrel's Colette bench (shown) has classic elements like linen upholstery and nailhead trim that will fit well in your space.
A larger rug than the one you have will define the area and introduce pattern. Pottery Barn's Webster Persian-style rug (shown) has a mix of warm tones that will complement your mushroom-coloured walls. As a final touch, a wicker umbrella stand (shown) will inject a casual note and a bit of texture.

The CIA's enhanced interrogation program was not approved by the US Justice Department and impeded White House investigations, the Senate Intelligence Committee concluded in the summary of a new report obtained Thursday by the McClatchy news agency.
"The techniques included waterboarding, which produces a sensation of drowning, stress positions, sleep deprivation for up to 11 days at a time, confinement in a cramped box, slaps and slamming detainees into walls. The CIA held detainees in secret 'black site' prisons overseas and abducted others who it turned over to foreign governments for interrogation," McClatchy's Washington Bureau said.
The report summary also suggests the CIA failed to present investigators with an accurate number of individuals it detained and subjected to the controversial interrogation methods, which were not approved by the Department of Justice or authorized by CIA headquarters. By providing false information, the intelligence agency misled the White House and Congress about the value of data extracted from terrorist suspects.
The report, weighing in at over 6,000 pages, came as a result of a four-year investigation. Last week, the Senate Intelligence Committee voted to make the final report public. The documents have now gone to the president for de-classification.
Moscow has repeatedly expressed deep concern over human rights violations in the US. Konstantin Dolgov, the Russian Foreign Ministry Commissioner for Human Rights, said last week that by delaying declassification of the US Senate Report, the Obama administration has violated the Convention Against Torture.
Dolgov also noted that leaks in the media indicate the internal investigation by US authorities might have revealed previously undisclosed methods of torture.
A Russian delegation headed by Dolgov recently visited the US military jail at Guantanamo Bay to meet a Russian prisoner and convince Washington to close down the facility. Since it was established in 2002, the Guantanamo Bay detention camp has been the target of criticism by human rights activists and many international government officials, who have condemned its controversial interrogation methods and the dubious legality of holding prisoners indefinitely without charging them with crimes.
Force-feeding is one of the most notorious techniques used in Guantanamo. It involves the use of force and physical restraints to immobilize hunger strikers without their consent and compel them to take food, especially by means of a tube inserted into the throat. The UN Human Rights Commission also condemned force-feeding at Guantanamo as both a form of torture and a breach of international law.

There was a time when women-centric films were bound by the 'parallel cinema' tag. But now they seem to be treading a successful path as commercial cinema, a point proven by the huge reception to Ekta Kapoor's 'The Dirty Picture', which saw Vidya Balan carrying the entire film, boldly, on her shoulders.
Women have played several roles on screen - helpless mother, submissive wife, devoted girlfriend and ignored sister. But over a decade, filmmakers like Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Shyam Benegal, Vishal Bharadwaj have tried to break the stereotype and present them in a more realistic way, and successfully too.
IANS lists women-centric films in the past decade that have ruled the box-office or garnered critical acclaim:
'The Dirty Picture' (2011) - Vidya Balan's itsy bitsy clothes, cleavage-showing blouses and raunchy dance numbers swept the audience off their feet even before the film hit the silver screen, but her powerful and crisp dialogue delivery and easy portrayal of the character took the attention away. The film is an unofficial biopic of southern sex symbol Silk Smitha, her rise to fame and downfall.
'7 Khoon Maaf' (2011) - Priyanka Chopra won critical acclaim for her performance as Susanna, a potentially loathsome serial spouse-killer. At the outset Priyanka's character seemed negative but at the same time it gave an insight into a woman's heart and soul. Rather than hate her, many ended up sympathising with her.
'No One Killed Jessica' (2011) - Based on the real-life murder of model Jessica Lall in 1999, this film kickstarted the year on a positive note. While Vidya Balan triumphed with her non-glamorous and distraught portrayal of Jessica's sister Sabrina, Rani Mukerji's unprecedented use of abuses as a journalist raised quite a few eyebrows but brought critical acclaim for her.
'Fashion' (2008) - Directed by Madhur Bhandarkar, 'Fashion' gave a sneak peak into the dark reality of the glamour world. Priyanka stole the show with her powerful and intense performance as a girl who goes from aspiring model to supermodel before her descent. The actress played a bubbly girl, who connected with the darkest of human emotions while pursuing her dream. Her performance also won her a national award.
'Dor' (2006) - A Nagesh Kuknoor film, 'Dor' was the poigant tale of two women and how their fate brings them together. Relatively new to the world of cinema, both Ayesha Takia and Gul Panag proved their mettle as actors with their distinctive performances.
'Black' (2005) - Directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, 'Black' was one of the best films of Rani Mukerji's career. Her portrayal of a deaf and blind girl and how she forms a strong bond with her teacher played by Amitabh Bachchan won her accolades from all over the world. The film brought out the untapped potential of the actress.
'Chameli' (2003) - 'Chameli' was a brave attempt by Kareena Kapoor, where she played a sex worker. With her over-the-top makeup, bright coloured saris and intense portrayal, Kareena proved that she is much more than just glamorous.
'Zubeidaa' (2001) - A Shyam Benegal film, 'Zubeidaa' starred Karisma Kapoor and Rekha in prominent roles. It was the story of a girl who gets married into a royal family and frets about the restrictions on her as princess and often vents her frustrations at not having her husband to herself. The film saw Karisma in a completely different avatar.
'Lajja' (2001) - Directed by Rajkumar Santoshi, 'Lajja' satirized the status of women in society and the restrictions on them. The film chronicled the story of four women with the names Maithali, Janaki, Ramdulhari and Vaidehi that are considered to be the versions of Sita. The film starred Manisha Koirala, Rekha, Madhuri Dixit and Mahima Chaudhry.
'Chandni Bar' (2001)- Madhur Bhandarkar's 'Chandni Bar' was again the heartwarming story of a sex worker played by Tabu and how she struggles to provide a better lifestyle to her kids, keeping them away from the gritty world of prostitution. Tabu walked away with the national award for best actress.

Vidya is amazing in that like all her movies but the story and body show was bit too loud. I don't see the need of making movie like dirty picture !!! Women oriented films are great and they should keep making them.

I haven't seen all of these films, bit I do admire how the team of each film has made an effort to do something different. They may not all have been commercial successes, but they were all critically acclaimed (and rightly so).
All these movies were great ones! They shd make more woman oriented movies!
All of the listed movies are very good. Hope more of such movies come out but with the entertainment factor being intact.

Plant plans to grow downtown
Company builds electrical control panels
There's a new kid on the block in downtown Wichita Falls — NUCO Controls.
The manufacturing plant, in the former Patterson Honda facility at 1008 Seventh St., started up in late July, specializing in building custom electrical control panels and systems.
The company is a partnership of Randy Beaver, John Bridgman, Pat Hogan, Chad Konermann and Paul Terry, all former employees of ABB, which relocated its Wichita Falls operation to Houston and Berlin, Wis., in 2010.
Bridgman said the partners averaged more than 18 years with ABB, and all have been in the electrical controls industry their entire working careers.
"The opportunity to have our own company is terrific. It is a dream come true for all of us," Bridgman said.
The company has 11 employees, with all but one having years of experience with ABB, he said. The other employees include Fred Rougier, James Boyd, David Rierson, James Vasquez and David Chafin, along with Paul Terry's son Sean.
Speaking of the downtown location, Bridgman said, "It is a good facility for us ... working at and being downtown."
He said the company is leasing the facility and expects to extend the lease next year and into the future.
"There is room for expansion here. We have no other plans other than to stay where we are," he said.
Bridgman said he anticipates growth in 2012 and adding more employees.
"We will grow next year. I don't want to be too optimistic, but the plan is to grow and add employees in 2012. There are a lot of talented people in Wichita Falls, and as we expand we will bring them in and make them a part of the team," he said.
NUCO is building pole-mounted medium voltage capacitor banks for ONCOR in Fort Worth.
"The order is from ABB MV Capacitor Division in Quebec, Canada. This is our second order from ABB for these products," Bridgman said.
He said the company serves a broad range of customers including oil and gas, power quality and alternative energy.
For more information call NUCO Controls at 940-867-2945.

Depth Chart

2006 KSU Preview
What you need to know:
It might not be the old days of Michael Bishop or
Darren Sproles and Ell Roberson, but Kansas State will be
looking to throw less and run more. The pieces might not be
there to do exactly what Bill Snyder would like, but the old
coaching staff left a ton of very fast receivers, quick running
backs, and a not-that-bad line. The problem is the departure of
Josh Freeman, who left early to make millions in the NFL. The
offense relied on his talents a bit too much, and now it'll be
up to Carson Coffman to hold down the starting quarterback job
and be a steadying force. There are big bombers waiting in the
wings, and JUCO transfer Daniel Thomas to run like Snyder would
like, but Coffman will get the early call ... maybe. The depth
chart is written in pencil with lots of tinkering to be done on
the line and with the starting spots in the backfield up for
Passing: Carson Coffman
25-41, 282 yds, 1 TD, 2 INT
Rushing: Lamark Brown (WR now)
118 carries, 412 yds, 5 TD
Receiving: Brandon Banks67 catches, 1,049 yds, 9 TD
Star of the offense:
Senior WR Brandon Banks
Player who has to step up and become a star: Junior QB
Carson Coffman
Unsung star on the rise: Sophomore OT Clyde Aufner
Best pro prospect: Banks (as a kick returner)
Top three all-star candidates: 1) Banks, 2) WR/RB Lamark
Brown, 3) OT Nick Stringer
Strength of the offense: Speed, Pass Protection
Weakness of the offense:
Running Back, No Josh
Projected Starter:
Is Carson Coffman
ready for the job? After serving as the understudy
behind Josh Freeman, the 6-3, 212-pound junior has the
experience to be the leading man competing 25-of-41 passes for
282 yards and a touchdown with two interceptions. The brother of
former Missouri star tight end, Chase, he's a big, accurate
passer with a nice arm and decent mobility, running for 60 yards
and a score. However, his experience and smarts aren't quite
enough; he'll have to battle and battle hard this fall to keep
the job.
Projected Top Reserves: At 6-5 and 227 pounds,
redshirt freshman Collin Klein has the size and
the arm to bomb away. He's a nice runner for his size, and not
just when a play breaks down. He has the raw skills with the
athleticism and the arm to develop into a possible leader, but
he's at least a year away from being ready.Yet another
big KSU quarterback, 6-5, 239-pound redshirt freshman
Joseph Kassanavoid has the best arm of the bunch. A
nice prospect who had a nose for the goal line in high school,
he's a tough runner who has to keep improving as a passer. He
needs polish and might end up fighting just to be the third
quarterback in the pecking order.Almost certain to be
the No. 2 man in the mix, if he doesn't win the starting job, is
Daniel Thomas, a JUCO transfer who signed with
Kansas State last year and ended up running for 562 yards and
six scores and throwing for 450 yards and two scores for NW
Mississippi JC. The 6-2, 227 pounder from Florida is the team's
best dual-threat option by far, but he has to work on his
passing accuracy. He could end up as a running back, which is
what the former coaching staff was thinking about doing with
Watch Out For ... Thomas. Bill
Snyder likes quarterbacks who can move, and while the other
options aren't statues, Thomas fits the mold a bit better.
Strength: Big arms. Thomas isn't small at 6-2 and
227 pounds, and he's the smallest one of the bunch. Coffman,
Klein, and Kassanavoid are all big-armed passers with size and
just enough athleticism to get by.
Weakness: The Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Josh Freeman
would've been a major star as a veteran leader who could've made
the struggling rebuilding team a player, but he's off making
millions at the next level while Snyder has unproven prospects
to work with.
Outlook: It would've been nice if Freeman had
stuck around, and now the coaching staff has a few big choices
to make. Is this really a rebuilding year, will the offense live
with the mistakes of a redshirt freshman to develop for the next
few years, or will it be the easy, safe choice of Carson
Coffman? The issue might not be settled until just before the
season starts, and even then it might be up for debate.
Rating: 6
Running Backs
Projected Starter:
Senior walk-on Keithen
Valentine was a key back early on last year, running
for 118 yards and two scores in the first three games, and then
he barely saw the light of day seeing three carries for 11 yards
and a score in the shootout win over Texas A&M. That was it. Now
the former JUCO transfer is being given a second life and he
plans on taking advantage of it. At 5-8 and 193 pounds, he's a
small, lightning-quick back who has to produce early on or he'll
be relegated to the bench in a hurry.
Is Braden Wilson ready to be a blaster of a
blocker for the next four years? The 6-4, 245-pound freshman is
strong enough and more athletic than his age might suggest, and
he could end up being used in a variety of ways. He'll see time
at tight end and could end up being a ball-carrier for a stretch
after running for 1,807 yards and 29 touchdowns for two Kansas
high school state championship teams.
Projected Top Reserves: When the running game
needs a bit more power, it'll give Logan Dold a
shot after he plowed ahead for 333 yards and three scores.
The6-0, 207-pound sophomore blasted away for 115 yards against
Texas A&M and could be used far more, even though he doesn't
exactly fit what the coaching staff would like out of the ground
6-1, 220-pound redshirt freshman Jarell Childs
impressed enough this spring to be the No. 2 back going into the
fall. A tough runner who'll likely be used mostly around the
goal line and in short yardage situations, he's extremely strong
and can be used as a fullback if he's not carrying the mail.
Needing to be a home run hitter is
Dee Bell, a lightning fast sophomore who isn't all that
big, checking in at just 5-8 and 177 pounds, but he runs a 10.5
in the 100. He only got one carry which went for -3 yards, and
he caught a pass for six yards, but he'll get far more work this
year. He has the toughness to handle the load if needed.
Watch Out For ... the newcomers. The recruits were
supposed to play a big role in last year's running game, and
they didn't. This year, Timothy Flanders could
find a spot somewhere right away if he doesn't take over a role
as a runner after tearing off 2,153 yards and 34 touchdowns as a
high school senior. Tramaine Thompson is
another smallish speedster who can be a receiver as well as a
runner, and John Hubert could turn out to be
the main man early on if he gets a chance.
Strength: Speed. It's Kansas State, so there are
always going to be smallish speed backs who can cut on a dime
Give these guys a crease and they could be gone.
Weakness: Proven production. The best back on the
team, 2008 leading rusher Lamark Brown, is off playing receiver,
and the second-leading rusher, Josh Freeman, is off living in
Tampa. Dold ran for 333 yards last year and Valentine ran for
129. The team needs a back to count on.
Outlook: There are plenty of speedy backs to go
around and there are several options to form an interesting
rotation. It's a deep group, even if there isn't much in the way
of proven production, and there could be far more work with less
of a reliance on Josh Freeman and the passing game. Now there
needs to be a star who can emerge from the fray; the job is wide
open for the taking.
Rating: 6
Projected Starters:
The concern over who was going
to take over for Jordy Nelson was answered by senior
Brandon Banks, one of the team's fastest players and a
game-breaker the offense desperately needs. Extremely athletic,
he was the two-time North Carolina high school state champion in
the 200 and the long jump and cranked out a 10.42 in the 100.
While he wasn't considered the team's best new receiver prospect
after coming over from Bakersfield C.C., he turned out to be a
major-league producer making 67 catches for 1,0409 yards with
nine touchdowns, averaging 15.7 yards per catch. He also turned
into a whale of a kickoff returner averaging 27.7 yards per try.
While he's only 5-7 and 170 pounds, he makes up for it with his
next-level wheels and quickness. He can be used as a possession
receiver or as a home-run threat. He can do it all, and now
he'll do more running as well.It was senior
Attrail Snipes, not Brandon Banks, who was supposed to
be the breakout star from the JUCO ranks. He came in from
Bakersfield C.C., along with Banks, with 6-1, 180-pound size,
plenty of proven production, and next level speed. There's speed
on Kansas State, and then there's Snipes, who won the 2006
Washington state high school 100, 200, and 400 meter spring
titles. While he's not as fast as Banks, he's a deep threat
who'll start to be used more after catching just one pass for 37
yards and spending most of his time on special teams.
Senior Jeron Mastrud has been a nice all-around tight end
with great route running ability to go along with his blocking
skills. He was second on the team with 38 catches for 435 yards
and two touchdowns, and while he's not necessarily a field
stretcher, he can make big plays. He's also a reliable blocker
who's a major strength for the running attack. At 6-6 and 253
pounds he has good size and next-level potential.
Projected Top Reserves: Junior Lamark
Brown turned into the team's main rushing weapon
leading the way with 412 yards and five touchdowns. However, he
only averaged 3.5 yards per carry and got most of his yards,
137, against UL Lafayette. He was also a nice receiver,
finishing with 24 grabs for 178 yards and a score. Now he'll
spend all his time in the receiving corps combining with Attrail
Snipes for one spot. Extremely fast, and with 6-3, 225-pound
size, he could be a matchup nightmare.
Considered the jewel of a huge
recruiting class, the 6-0, 190-pound Aubrey Quarles
was a big-time JUCO transfer who had a nice first year,
but not a special one, catching 34 passes for 407 yards and a
score. He was held out of some of the spring practices to heal
up, but when he's ready he'll be a major factor in three-wide
sets. He's also a top kick returner.
Coming in to backup Jeron Mastrud, and be next year's starting
tight end, is Travis Tannahill, a nice recruit
who got to school early and will be a part of the passing
attack. Extremely athletic, the 6-4, 240-pound true freshman was
a Kansas all-state punter and track star.
Watch Out For ... Brown. He was originally supposed
to be a wide receiver before the old coaching staff moved him to
running back, and now he should be a devastating No. 2 target on
the other side of Banks.
Strength: Speed. Finding deep wheels isn't a
problem. Banks, Snipes, Brown, and Quarles would form a big-time
4x100 relay team. The passing game averaged a solid 12.9 yards
per catch.
Weakness: Josh Freeman. The receiving corps was
terrific when it had a first round talent bombing away, and
while Carson Coffman isn't bad, he's not nearly the same player.
the receivers will have to make more big things happen on their
The new coaching staff walked into a
stocked cupboard with the old regime loading up on top-shelf
JUCO athletes. There's speed, depth, a good No. 1 target in
Brandon Banks, and a nice, reliable tight end in Jeron Mastrud.
The numbers might not be quite as good as they were last year,
but the receiving corps should still be strong.
