Lang has a great article about Asa Chapman in today's fishwrap:

Chapman a mountain of a man in heart of Flames' defensive line
By Chris Lang
Off the field, Asa Chapman — Liberty’s 6-foot-5 mountain of a nose guard — is as gentle as they come. He’s the light-hearted one, always cracking jokes after practice, laughing and smiling during interviews.

“A huge teddy bear,” Liberty quarterback Mike Brown said....

“I call him the big grizzly, because on the field, he can get a little bit rowdy,” Belin said. “It goes back to his mass. It’s hard to move him.”

That was a great article, Chris!

Man, I would NOT want to be under the basket when Asa throws one down!! I'm afraid they would be peeling me off of the paint.

I am still loving the 4th and 2 play last week when he wrecked the deal for Ball State!

Shoot, I thought this was a thread about slow-pitch softball.
