Divine Deablo gets the #25 for the Pitt game

I personally wanted to see Ludwig get it after how well he punted last Thursday, but Deablo also deserves it.

Looking forward to seeing him as a big time contributor in the future. The fact that he gets on the field with the 1's sometimes at the very least speaks to his effort in practice and utility as a blocker outside.

I am so happy to see him finally showing up for something positive during his freshman year. Double D looks like he has so much potential but hasn't really done much in the limelight this year.

Ed Edd and Eddy! Sorry the "double d" sent my childhood into maximum overdrive.

Double d picked up a different meaning to me once I turned 12.

You guys are on fire with getting my references this season. I expected the bra size to be caught, but the Edd reference is pure joy.

Is #666 not available?

He's the first true freshman to wear the #25 this season. Promising future for him I think.

I'm not even sure, but the ESPNU announcers came up with something during the Syracuse game.

As a Reynolds graduate I would fight back, but my wife went to Tabor and so did Diablo, so I'm on board with this. When did you go there?

Leonard's picture Leonard | 9 years 9 months # ^

Hahahahaha.

I didn't. I moved to the Triad right after high school 30 years ago. All of my kids went to Tabor. My youngest was friends with Deablo. Great kid. We were so excited he got on board with the good guys. UNC was leaning hard there near the end.

Leonard. Duh.

VTMaroonOrange's picture VTMaroonOrange | 9 years 9 months # ^

That's great. We just moved back into town a few months back and if we stay in this house long term (hope to) our kids will also go to Tabor. Good to know we are probably neighbors.

Was at this game for my birthday, the Pitt fans behind us were so bad Mrs. Fireman has vowed to never go back to that city. Which is a shame because I like their food.

I feel like with the way this season has been going, that would have been 100% a targeting call with him being ejected after the review because "87" couldn't see him coming, or something stupid along those lines

Probably, even though it's clearly shoulder impacting shoulder, it seems that the penalty depends more on the eyeball test than the actual criteria.
