Update on Palomar College DT Joe Naotala

[gtapp]

Originally I was not that excited about this kid because I couldn't get much information on him even from an O-lineman on the Palomar team. I ran into the Palomar coach today (he lives 2 doors down) and when I asked him his response was fast and confident. He said Naotala is a solid D-1 player who got overlooked only because he is 6'2" tall. He said he will be a great player for us. He also knows a lot about the MSU defensive coaching situation (he coach on the 84 NC team). He had some very positive things to say about Ioane (not surprising) and when I said Ioane was CO-defensive coordinator he said "don't kid yourself. He is the Defensive coordinator. That also was nice to hear.

Coaches are dumb. 6'2" is the idea height for a defensive tackle.

Could you go knock on the coaches door to borrow some sugar and nonchalantly ask if Joe got his AA degree?

Rumor is he is taking summer school classes to graduate. Is this good news or bad? Meaning, if he didn't graduate already and needs extra classes to do it where does that leave him? Do these kids have to graduate in spring with their class to be eligible to play or be a part of the team in the fall?

The best DT MSU has had in recent years by far was only 6'1".

If this is true, then I believe he will miss fall camp, but will be good to join the team assuming he graduates in the summer.

There is a great thread about Vernon "No Degree" Adams on the College board. Why not add to your rumor-mongering about a potential MSU player on the Bobcat board?

What is your source?

"I believe."

He tweeted about summer school. The jc rules are confusing and in my opinion he won't be able to participate in part or all of fall camp. Am I spreading rumors or opinion?

A very specific tweet directly from Naotala jack wagon. When you have no knowledge of a particular situation you should just stay quiet and not act like you know what is going on over others. Oh wait, you're the one who claimed to talk to his coach and that you guys are buds and neighbors....yet you had no idea about his attending summer school and possibly being ineligible for fall camp....maybe you're the one full of BS

Actually that was me. His coach never mentioned anything about his grades. He may not even know since Naotala is not on the team anymore.

Sorry, Gary, I got you...a respectable poster with legitimate knowledge of Bobcat football who often contributes positively to conversations on this site....confused with a crabby old man who contributes nothing and tries to pick fights as he attempts to deal with issues stemming from the days he was bullied in high school. My bad!

Welcome to egriz!

So is that your whole point? attack posters for what ever reason you see fit? create a situation over nothing? cry about how the mods have chided you on every other post you make?
Well if that's your plan to turn this into Egriz your off to a great start, unfortunately none of us particularly like Egriz since its a perpetual circle jerk. I guess if circle jerking is your thing, maybe you should go post on Egriz with the other chronic masturbators.

I'm wondering if he still could go through fall camp if he took a few classes the first semester of summer right? I'm trying to remember when I was in college, i thought they had maybe a June-mid July and a mid July to september.

Anyways, I hope he gets it nailed down and come for fall camp as it would be nice to have more depth.

You and Papa have developed an animosity where it feels like both are just trying to big dick the other guy. I say you both are winners, and can quit the snipe hunting.

Despite papa G it's actually safer to say something bad about MSU than um. I questioned a call in a um basketball game and was eviscerated to a point where I ended up agreeing with those attacking. The funny thing was grizgirl was one of the people that stepped in and proved them wrong.


Anyway...Palomar JC summer classes end on July 23 (6-week) and August 6 (8-week).

Both LA Harbor (Jessie Clark) sessions end on August 15. I'm not holding my breath on that one.
