Miners Pasty's in Munising…

Miners Pasty's in Munising has two locations including one that you can stop at right after you get off the cruise boat. Munising is a little torn up with construction right now so the less you have to navigate the highway through town the better. Plus, I dont think you will find a better pasty in the entire UP. Enjoy your trip up here

If this is a legitimate…

If this is a legitimate thought experiment that we are having I think Livers is the obvious choice at QB. He clearly has the arm for it as demonstrated by his clutch long court inbound passing last season.

Obviously a basketball team would have a tough time filling out any of the Lineman positions, but if we are simply filling out the skill guys with the basketball players for this week against Rutger I would have those spots filled in as follows.

Offense

QB- Isaiah Livers: He is tall and can see over the line something Simpson may struggle with although Simpson does have more experience directing an offense. Livers' baseball background and the aforementioned passes provide the best evidence of anyone on the team having a chance to be a legit QB option. 

RB/FB- Zavier "X?" Simpson: Zavier Simpson's body size and lateral quickness make him the best choice for RB/FB. He could prove to be a pretty solid choice and his bulldog personality lends itself to being a tough runner in between the tackles. 

WR- Charles Matthews: Matthew's athleticism would lend itself well to the wide receiver position and his 6' 6" frame wouldn't hurt his chances at jump balls either. 

WR- Jordan Poole: I don't really think this one requires much explanation. He has the height and the athleticism to succeed here. His personality also lends itself to being a go to wide receiver as well. 

TE- Jon Teske: Teske's size would be a huge asset to a team as a receiving option. Its tough to project anyone on the basketball team, besides perhaps Simpson, as a good blocker, but Teske may have the size to pull it off. Either way if you need a tight end he appears to be the most logical option from this team.

Defense

CB- David DeJulius: Defense is a lot tougher to project across sports, but I'm leaning on putting athletes on the field. DeJulius has the necessary athleticism and his body type lends itself well to corner. 

CB- Xavier "Z?" Simpson: I waffled on where to put Simpson on this side of the ball. He could perhaps perform as a middle line backer, but he perhaps is a little on the small size and I'm leaning towards just filling out DB positions. I also thought about putting him at Viper, but I do see him as the teams best option at corner as his defensive instincts would serve him well in this spot.

Safety- Jordan Poole: To be honest I don't know if he would be good at safety given his defensive lapses on the basketball court I just enjoy watching him do things (play with cats, shoot threes, run away from Wagner, etc.)

Safety- Isaiah Livers: Played good defense all of last basketball season. I thought about going Eli Brooks or one of this years freshmen, but I'm going with a proven defender despite the fact that he hasn't proven it on the football field.

Viper-Charles Matthews: This one is pretty simple best athlete on the team gets put in the position that requires a high level of athleticism. 

Specialist

K- CJ Baird: He has a history of getting his team 3 points. 

Bravo, Sir! This is next…

Bravo, Sir! This is next level stuff! Take a bow.
