And Amik has his head on straight.

Despite those accolades, Robertson believes he could have done more.
"My expectations were way higher. I left a lot of plays out there on the field that I would say, my team wouldn't, but I would say," said Robertson.

Skip took every coach we had to his home and recruited him -- offers from everywhere but imagine we explained he would have a great chance to start from day one--next year expect it to be Wren from Mesquite Horn

Interesting story and good for Amik, but why Kokomo, Indiana? Just curious.

Looks like the Kokomo Perspective was publishing articles about various bowl games. After clicking the link, look over to the side to see the various games and topics covered. Apparently they have a connection with ktbs.com to pick up topics. It makes a person from other areas of the nation want to follow The Kokomo Perspective. Nice business model for a news organization.

Yes, but how did a paper in Kokomo go about finding it? My theory was they have a connection of some sort and thought it was worthy of Yankee pub.;)

So, is it fair to say that La Tech received more and better bowl coverage from Kokomo than from Gannett newspapers in north LA? Asking for a friend...:icon_razz:

At least equal since our snowflake reporter decided to cover from afar. Please don't count The Times guy (what's his name Lang?) since he was already on vacation in the area anyway.
