We are t-minus 7 days till kickoff in Florida. I hope you all have your PTO submitted because it might look fishy if we all “got sick” on the same day.

How’d he get to The Blue™?
A’Marion is a JUCO transfer from Laney College. Due to the courts deciding JUCO doesn’t count as eligible years, this will be his 3rd year anchoring the CB room.
Nickname
“The Real McCoy”
We will Real…ly need him to shine this year as the most experienced DB
Look-alike
As they say in the business, “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” The running comment is that his look-alike is the Greek Freak Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Career Highlights
Last season, he led the MW in forced incompletions (19), pass breakups (11), and (1) pick-six 6. In a season where CB left much to be desired, he was a diamond in the rough, which led to him being picked second team all-conference.
2025 Prospectus
Once again, this Broncos’ secondary will look to A’Marion to be the anchor. The media believes he is in for another big year, as he was selected to the MW pre-season first team. I second those thoughts. There are a number of opponents who run “air raid” offenses, ie: UNLV, San Jose State, USF. My heart will appreciate A’Marion putting opposing WR’s on McCoy island this season.
Is he on Twi/X?
Yes: @poohdolla1
Completely made up fact
A’Marion thought about going to the NBA but since none of the teams played on a blue court it wasn’t worth his time.
McCoy has been a steady contributor since arriving. Let’s hope he finishes his career with some INTs and a pick-six or three.
De Coy, Dis Coy. Coyale as in Royale
I bet he gets tired of hearing “the real McCoy.”
