Dez Cruikshank, team beat

Duke Checkdown Jr. QB
Draymen

They got Duke Checkdown Jr. back. He looked like he never left — 33.3 points.

The ledger, after four seasons: 5,038 yards, sixty-two scores. There was a 1,930-yard year in there. This is not it.

He turned twenty-five this year. He is from Ashfork, Arizona. He keeps his own counsel and his own hours. He was the second man taken at his position out of Caldwell A&M.

Draymen, 7-2, and ten weeks gone. Sal Ami is new.

One more thing: he reads on the team plane, actual books, which his teammates find hilarious.
