Good article. I love the quote by Lewis about Corey. The way he plays every week, that is definitely true. I hope Corey has a monster week in front of the Loveland fans.

Go Falcons!!

I love this quote,

"You have to be a little pest," Partridge said. "You have to be a gnat at a barbecue, just trying to always be in somebody's face. You have to make them think more about you than what they're supposed to be doing."

The kid is tough, no doubt. Love his leadership and athletic skills. And I'm very glad he came to camp the one year.

Corey is gonna light it up Saturday. Spart, you have a pretty short drive this week, no?

BEAT MIAMI

Drive is around 45 minutes....

Gotta love that.

I am so glad that Corey found his home at BGSU. I love the campus, the students, the fans and everything about the experience. This board has been a big part of that experience and all the people on here that make it go. I really enjoy just hanging out at the tailgates with all you Falcon Die hards.

Corey was not highly rated coming out of high school. If he had gone to a big ten school I am sure he would have gotten lost in the shuffle. All he needed was a chance to show this ability. Too many good athletes get lost in the big school system and never get that chance to shine. BG and the MAC were perfect for him. Corey got to play early in his career and hasn't looked back.

I love the MAC because any road trip within the conference is not a major undertaking. He seems to always be playing close to home. The trips to Miami Florida last year, Minnesota and Boston this year are a lot of fun but I wouldn't want to be making those kind of trips every week. But a drive to Kent or Akron or Athens and even as far as Buffalo are very doable and easy.

Things are going well this year, lets keep it up and take down the Redhawks. This game is huge! I am so fired up for this, Lets get it on!

Corey's a scrappy guy who is never going to quit on himself or his teammates. He's the perfect kind of guy you want to play with, and I am so glad to have him at BGSU. I remember running into him outside AA last year and he was so laid back and easy to talk to. He's going to have a great season when things are all said and done.
