09/05/22 - Devin Matthews, rSr/2025, Towson + More +

Devin Matthews ran for two touchdowns and 112 yards and Towson beat Bucknell 14-13 in overtime Saturday night in a season opener. Matthews' 3-yard scoring run in overtime gave Towson a 14-7 lead. It occurred two plays after Tyrrell Pigrome completed a 15-yard pass to Isaiah Perkins on fourth-and-8 to keep the drive going. Bucknell responded with a touchdown on its half of the first overtime when Ethan Grady threw a 4-yard touchdown pass to Christian Spugnardi but the extra point was missed. Grady threw for 158 yards and two touchdowns with both scores going to Spugnardi. The loss snapped a three-game skid for the Tigers, who hadn't won since a 38-24 victory against Albany on Oct. 30. Bucknell's losing streak sits at eight games, losing 13 of their last 14 contests. - Towson/AP College Football

08/14/22 - Tyrrell Pigrome, rSr/2023, Towson + More +

Welcome back, Tyrrell Pigrome. Almost three years removed from his last season as the quarterback for the Maryland football team, Pigrome has returned to the state - this time trying his hand at Towson. Is it strange to be back in the area where it all started? Pigrome doesn't think so. "I don't look at it that way," the Birmingham, Alabama, native said. "I just look at it as a new opportunity. A new opportunity means new blessings. I'm just getting to do what I do and pursue new opportunities in my life. So it doesn't feel weird at all." The Tigers have six quarterbacks on their roster, but Pigrome, 24, and UAB graduate student transfer Tyler Johnson III, who helped the Blazers capture a pair of Conference USA titles in 2018 and 2020, appear to be the leading candidates to start in the season opener at Bucknell on Sept. 3.

Coach Rob Ambrose said he can't bring himself to call Pigrome "Piggy" or "Swine" or any of the other hog-related nicknames his teammates have conjured up, but Ambrose said the Mississippi transfer has raised the level of competition among the quarterbacks. "He's clearly talented," he said. "It's not like I haven't seen him before. But the cool part about him is, just like everybody else, he sees that it's his job to meld himself to the program and the people in it, and he's doing a really good job. He's picking up the language pretty quick, and he's one of those six guys where it's the Quarterback of the Day to where I could say, 'If that guy started, we'd beat everybody." - Baltimore Sun

08/11/22 - Janaz Jordan, rSr/2023, Towson + More +

Janaz Jordan now enters his fourth season at CU as a key part of the defensive line rotation. "The rotation is like an NFL defensive line rotation, so you're gonna play; the best players are going to play," he said. "The support of your D-line and the defense, it helps everybody grow and play better together. The rotation and everything is great." On the field, Jordan has appeared in 27 games at CU, with six starts. He's been on the field for 542 snaps, recording 21 tackles while clogging the middle of the defense. A regular starter in 2020, Jordan was in a backup role last year. He said he has worked to become better this year.

"I had to improve my conditioning," said Jordan, who played last year between 330-340 pounds. "I think that's what set me back a little bit, my conditioning and my weight. So this spring, I got my weight down and got my conditioning back. "It was just me being undisciplined about my weight and the food I'm putting in my body. But, me getting with my nutritionist, my strength coach and my coaches, they got me into the right direction of what food I need to put in my body and how to condition it into strength and everything." With preseason camp now underway, Jordan continues working to get himself ready for the season. "He's progressing," defensive coordinator Chris Wilson said. "I think Janaz would tell you he's not where it needs to be. … He's got some steps to make and he's taking those steps. Our job is to help him get there. He's doing good." - Daily Camera

The UAB football team opened fall camp Tuesday in Birmingham and is well on its way to defending another conference title. There was a bit of seasonal comfort with temperatures hovering around 80 degrees during the morning practice session and the team was in shorts and shells. Tyler Johnston returns to lead the UAB offense for a third straight season but the backup battle is one to watch as both Dylan Hopkins and Bryson Lucero have received starting experience in the last two seasons. Hopkins was working with the second team to open practice and Lucero was running the third unit. - Birmingham Post Herald
