Monday: Links with temper


Story of the day:

Aaron Burks, man of mystery [Statesman]

Congratulations on the Idaho Statesman for breaking some Boise State football news yesterday with the announcement of Texas high school WR Aaron Burks giving a verbal commitment to the Broncos. We have just one question: who?!

Burks is a mystery to a lot of Boise State fans. Fight Fight BSU couldn't find much about him. The guys at Bronco Country unearthed his stat line from last year (seven catches) and not much else. We're happy that the Boise State coaches are able to discover such gems, but Bronco Nation needs some more information.

Perhaps this is the problem: the Statesman might have spelled his name wrong. We found an Arron Burks on the Baylor Scout page, and Boise State's Scout profile has it spelled the same way. Perhaps this way we can find out more information about the kid. At any rate, the plot remains thickened.

We were wondering when Chris Ault would be speaking.

  1. Yeah, we were wondering too. Talk about quiet and low key during the off season. Not sure what to think about that but I do know our fan base has a lot of positive buzz about this season.

  2. Honestly, I'm excited that Nevada fans are so amped for their team. It is good for the WAC, and it is good for college football. Idaho could learn a thing or two from you guys, packfan.
