Transferred from John Paul II to Frisco Memorial.

4.45 GPA

Made it to the state meet in the 110 hurdles. Not bad for a DE's resume.

I think my Grandfather lost to Mayhem McDowell in the 1935 Gold Gloves Championship

Good points good point... but does anybody agree that he is take simply based on the fact that he is DE named MAYHEM!!

How about it. That's what I used to call Julian Okwara... Capt. Mayhem. When he was on, it seemed like his hand was a foot from the QB's arm on every play.

 

[BobbyMac]

Oops.

Mods I need a Clean up in Aisle 1. Was so excited to see a guy named Mayhem McDowell, I actually typed it by accident.

Mayhem's first name is actually Kennedy.

 

[T-Boone]

Mum is cool. That is our shot.

Next to Elston versus next to Freeman are funny perspectives

Singer was singing his praises from a character perspective talking to him and sounds like visit went very well. Will be interesting what they see development wise. Another 3-4 year plan to bulk up and play DE or stay on the edge guy?

 

[Luckylucci]

Sounds like a great fit.

Not that LB recruiting needs to convert guys, especially after the 2022 class and what's on the table in 2023, but... with how lean he is and his hurdling background. He'd be an interesting guy to see at LB. I would think Vyper at a minimum though.

 

[BobbyMac]

He'll need to drink some milk. He looks more like Rajon Rondo that a D1 DE.

 

[BobbyMac]

This dude's a character. Must see tv.

Still pluggin ND but he's visiting Purdue soon and not hitting ND on that trip

 

[dublinirish]

signed with Colorado State

 

[yankeehater]

Injured and had to be taken to the hospital on a blind side block during a kickoff in their game against Boise State on Saturday. The video shows #51 clearly leaving his lane to make the hit. The reason this is making news is because Kennedy is openly gay (I did not know when ND was recruiting him) and he may have been purposely targeted.

 

[Irish4life]

Jesus, that's horrible

 

[irishnd31]

51 is a punk...

 

[Katzenboyer]

That's absolutely purposeful. Guy leaves several opponents in his own lane to target McDowell.

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

He stood over him and stared.

 

[MacIrish75]

I wanted to give the BSU kid the benefit of the doubt, but like my old HS Coach used to tell me…“Film don’t lie.” Even if it was a middle or left return and the three guys he let pass to target KMD weren’t going to impact the returner, he still sought out a guy who his teammate had already engaged and neutralized. Indefensible.

The film is pretty bad. Also, look at the other Boise players. No one engages anyone else. Ft Collins is at elevation, so most kicks go out of the endzone as this one clearly does meaning there is a small percentage of any kickoff ever being returned (each team had only one kick returned throughout the entirety of the game). This play happened at the beginning of the third quarter so #51 would have been clearly aware there was a small likelihood the kick would be returned.

This came later.

this actually was attempted on Jordan Botelho on kickoff two seasons ago but he managed to see the blindside hit coming just in time and avoid it. Its a total bitch move clearly instructed by a ST coach

Fucking love it.

Wait, I thougth it was because the kid is gay? Right? Now you're telling me it could've been a cheapshot game plan by the ST coach?

Someone figure this out so I can figure out if i should be outraged.

Meanwhile, prayers for McDowell. Hope it was just a bad hit and no serious issues stem from it.

It’s a cheap shot play no matter what and in reality, we don’t really know why 51 did it…….and we probably never will. Hope McDowell bounces back quickly.

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

He's straight up Cobra Kai.

That's why he did. "Teacher say, student do."

Just be outraged, there is never any consequence if you jump right to that first without the facts.

Pray the kid is okay, nasty hit.
