per Leber:
The college football season is only three months away. This season will be the final one for former Boylan quarterback Demry Croft at Tennessee State. He's hoping to make it a good one to finish off a roller-coaster college career.
Croft set numerous passing records while at Boylan. His performance there was so impressive that 247sports had him ranked as the 18th best dual-threat quarterback in the nation coming off his senior year.
Croft committed to Minnesota. By his sophomore season he was starting. He had some big games. Against Michigan State he passed for three touchdowns. In a win against Nebraska he set a Minnesota record for a quarterback by rushing for 183 yards. But Croft and head coach P.J. Fleck had a falling-out. Croft transferred to Tennessee State.
Last year he won the starting job there, but four games in he injured his shoulder. He needed surgery and his season was over.
Croft says the shoulder is all good now. "Oh yea. Already good to go for the fall."
Croft was back in Rockford helping out this past weekend at the MercyHealth Top Performers football combine...looking relaxed and enjoying helping out the kids. But his thoughts will soon turn toward Tennessee State's upcoming season in the Ohio Valley Conference. His last chance to make a major impact at the college level.
"It's most definitely a big year. A big season for Big Blue," said Croft. "We've got a ton on our plate this season.'"
