I guess we're into 2-a-days

Love Boo Jackson but I guess you could not find any pictures of our leading receiver, Chase Cochran, who was just nominated on the watch list for the Reese's Senior Bowl?

Cochran was used in a combo for 38

I'd have liked to see Austin Everson used somewhere in the countdown.

He was used for with Donte Foster for 83, actually.

There is no way they could use everyone. I gave up worrying about it. It's not a hall of fame, just fun pics to remind us game day is around the corner.

The current media team might be out of touch but no one who saw those guys play will forget. I'm especially partial to Chad because on some poor teams, he was never discouraged even when his own health became the issue. Those were the days when the 'Cats still sat on the press box side and you could read the emotions series by series. Both guys were steady, intense, tireless and determined, determined, determined.

For current students, it would be nice for them to know what Chad overcame.  I met Chad's father and sat with his Grandparents at the 2001 WVU game and they were first class.

Brinker overcomes Arachnoid Cyst and Skull Surgery.  What the article does not mention was Chad was willing to switch from tailback to fullback as a senior after the surgery and still ran for 1,000 yards:

Was that a game against Ball State maybe where he is running?  I can't place the helmet logo but it looks like it may have the outline of Indiana on it.

I was actually wondering the same thing and did some research.  The only year that Ohio wore those helmets was the 1995 season (before the Attack Cat came along).  So I looked at the 1995 Schedule and Ohio opened up with the Illinois State Redbirds.  Looked up their helmets in 1995, and here's what I found.  (Man, I need a life, thank goodness football season is almost here)

Thank you for the information!  I knew it wasn't Miami.
