We have a 'Hernz Laguerre' on the team. That should be reason enough to click on this post.

By Dan Lyons

...Seriously. I had no idea we had a 'Hernz Laguerre' until Sean sent this week's Get to Know assignments. This is a learning experience for all of us.

Name: Hernz Laguerre

Position: Linebacker

Year: Sophomore

Height: 6'0"

Weight: 220

Hometown: Spring Valley, NY

High School: Spring Valley

2012 Stats: None, he just made the team.

2013 Projections: Normal walk-on stuff.

How'd He Get Here?: He made the team as a walk-on after trying out in the Spring.

What'd Scout/Rivals Say?: Nothing from anyone.

Money Quote:

"Football’s a war. You have a goal in mind — you train, you study your position, and do anything that is just to get to your goal," Laguerre said. "In poetry, I’m going to war too. I’m going to war against negativity, for people who have made mistakes and feel there is no remorse."

Links of Wonder: The definitive Hernz Laguerre piece on the internet from NewsHouse writer Joe Diglio.

What Does Shafer Think: Enough to let Hernz on the team after only one year of high school ball.

Interesting Nugget O'Interest: If you read the piece above, you'd know that Hernz is a pretty badass poet on top of his athletic achievements.
