slufan13 Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Yarbrough is the most intriguing member of this freshmen class to me. He had that deer in the headlights look and seems like he isn't totally used to a structured system, but he appears to have all the physical tools to be a standout A10 player. He may be a year away still, but I think he's an exciting prospect for us. This tweet in particular intrigued me: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cgeldmacher Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I've never stooped to throwing out the word "troll" before, but now seems appropriate. Now that I got that out of my system, I am willing to admit that I may have missed some form of sarcasm or an inside joke there. If so, I apologize. If not, the comment stands.
