Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Art Laurel

[letsgobows]

geezus! he looked like a missle coming from that OLB spot. if he can translate that to D1 ball, i think we got ourselves a steal. i never really saw him play before but his highlights are very impressive. i know this is only his first spring, but has anyone seen how hes been progressing?

[rbaloha]

Impressive highlights. Future star.

In a couple of years, this is going to be one of our stars. If I'm a running back or receiver facing UH, I would not want to have my ribs exposed. OUCH.

BIK

he has a really good burst and able to close in on the ball carrier. im looking forward to seeing what he can do.
