A.J. Walking: 78 days to football


How many laces on a football?

FIU’s football players started strength and conditioning this week, gearing up for a great 2010 season. While they focus on speed and strength, we’re counting down to the opening game on Sept. 11 vs. Rutgers.

As we count down to kickoff, we decided to have a little fun and see how much the FIU community knows about football. We gave a Flip Cam to our very own A.J. Meyer ‘09, an FIU alumnus who works in Alumni Relations. For 100 days until Sept. 11 A.J. will be walking around campus asking 100 football trivia questions. (You know, like Jay Leno’s Jay Walking. Get it? A.J. Walking?)

A.J. is on vacation this week so he handed the ball off to his friend Robby Perez, an FIU graduate student who also works in Alumni Relations, to continue the countdown. Robby was a college baseball player, but he knows his football.

We’ll post all 100 videos right here on News.FIU.edu.

Check back often. And before you laugh at the great sports who are taking part in A.J. Walking, we have just one question: Do you know what a T-Bone formation is?
