Add another player to the Lamar signing class...this one a TE from the JUCO ranks in DeAndre Jennings from Northeastern Oklahoma A&M.

Jennings caught 12 passes for 114 yards and 1 TD last year...not great but his team only averaged 164 yards/game through the air on the season

At the FCS level walk-ons are crucial. With FCS only getting 63 scholarships you have to be able to get quality walk-ons to create sufficient depth. The only advantage FCS gets is they can divide the scholarships where at FBS, all 85 are full scholarships. I think some of the walk-ons we've got this year like Phillips, Logan Hare and Chase Marler look to potentially be quality players. I know both Phillips and Marler had offers to play D-II but chose to walk-on at Lamar. Think that shows our recruiters are doing a hell of a job to convince a guy to turn away at least a partial scholarship to come here and fight for one.

Looks like another walk-on will be Camreyon Jackson. He played QB at Houston Milby HS in 2013 then transferred to Fort Bend Marshall HS for 2014. He was rated as a 2-star QB by 247 while at Milby but his profile wasn't updated when he transferred. 247 profile lists him at 5'11" 172 lbs but his Hudl lists him at 6'2" 185 lbs. Looks closer to the 5'11" listing to me.

Looks like they picked some good preferred walk-ons this year.

Another addition to the 2015 Lamar team will be RB Luis Lopez out for Trinity Valley CC. He was a big part of his 12-0 TVCC team this past year rushing for 1240 yards on 153 carries (8.1 y/c) and 18 TDs in 12 games. In 2013 he rushed for 482 yards on 61 carries (7.9 y/c) and 8 TDs in 11 games. He's was listed on the TVCC roster as 5'7" 220 lbs and his Hudl days 5'8" 215 lbs so no that's not a misprint...kid is a bowling ball but can scoot.

The blocks he made and the fact that he would just a well run over you and around you (which it looks like he can do) is what is impressive! The kid looks like he loves contact!

Much needed addition to the OL

6'4" 290 lbs

Looks like he was a full qualifier out of HS and after 1 year at JUCO he had a 2* rating on Rivals and offers from FBS San Jose St and Marshall to go along with it but went back to Santa Rosa JC for his sophomore season.

After doing a little more research it looks like he was actually out of football last year. Graduated HS in 2012 and his 2 JUCO seasons were '12 & '13. '14 will count as his RS season so he'll have 2 to play 2.
