I have heard that a BGSU football recruit from Bluffton High School, Michael Ream, was kicked out of the NWC-MAC vs. WBL all star game. I do not exactly what happened, was anyone there that can ellaborate on it?

He probably got in a fight with some kid who is going to TU...in which case I applaud his efforts and look foward to him playing at BG.

Not sure what he was ejected for, but I also heard he wasn't the only player ejected. I think something like three players were ejected in all. I'll ask my brother this evening what happend, he's a coach at Minster and was planning on attending the game.

You're right, I failed to mention there were three players ejected. I figured that the only one of interest would be Ream, since he will be a Falcon before long.

Unfortunately, my brother said that the Minster kid that was supposed to play in the All Star game strained his hamstring and withdrew, so my brother did not go to the game. All he could report was that he heard it was fighting, but he had no real details or insight. He has met Michael Ream on a couple of occassions and said he seemed like a very nice well-mannered kid. He was very surprised that he would be thrown out of a game. He did say that Michael was a good at the shot-put too, not that matters much for BG.

I read on the MAC online that Rheam getting thrown out was pretty cheap. I think someone said it was for helping out a teammate after one of the WBL players gave him an extra shove at the end of a play out of bounds. Rheam apparently came to his teammates side and said a few choice words and got in the guys face and was thrown out. The MAC-NWL vs. WBL game has typically been known for no bad mouthing or anything and pretty much will throw a player out on the littlest unsportsman like penalty.
