Kevon Darton transferring to Arizona

[JrodCuse]

Will always be a fan favorite. The “undersized” guy with the heart of a lion is a characteristic / trait that will always get you far in life. Dude was a true warrior, just like Mac.

Great player, good luck! There was talk of his wedding in Arizona? Maybe a southwest school perhaps.

He out played his size but at the end of the day he’s 5’10 and the DT we’re bringing in are almost half a foot taller.

The guy has guts. Gave everything his body could handle and then some. Great example of what hard work looks like. I think he could have only been a pass rush specialist in this scheme. I wish him the best.

 

[CanadianSU]

Credit his effort for sure but 100% area we want to upgrade if we are going to compete for ACC titles.

Yes if he's getting married there, might as well go to one of those schools.

 

[Newhouser]

Will be interesting to see what schools are interested.

 

[Toga]

Love Darton hope he does well kid is a warrior.

All warrior team.

New Mexico I bet

 

[sdhall01]

Best of luck to him. I hope he gets a master’s degree and goes on to have a great career

 

[DPCuse]

Gamer. Loved this kid. Gave it everything he had every play. Good luck to you.

 

[OrangeFreek]

One of my favorite players!! Good luck Mr!

Can't argue with his effort over the years, and developing from a PWO to a scholarship starter. Even though he was undersized even for the 3-3-5, he really isn't a fit for a 4 down front so this is the best for all parties. I think if New Mexico is going to run the 3-3-5 he'd be a really good fit there for a final year.

This dude was a warrior loved watching him beating the odds and being a tackling machine I will never forget watching the video when Dino awarded him with a full scholarship. I hope he finds a school in the southwest where he can get a ton of ( PT ) and further his education.

 

[Sudano]

We all should have a warm spot in our hearts for Mr. Darton.

 

[bigmike]

Kevon- thank you for your service. Good luck at your next stop. Only Secreteriat had a heart as big as yours.

 

[rrlbees]

I’d bet on ASU or Arizona.

 

[OrangeTarheel]

What a freaking beast. I’m cool with him going anywhere he doesn’t have to line up against us.

 

[PAcuse]

Loved watching him and he had the heart of a giant, gave hope to all of us short kings

 

[Moontan]

I hope he finds some more playing time. It's what he deserves.
The Lobos might be the way to go. Not far from Arizona.

 

[crv1728]

Never schedule a wedding during the season.

Sound like a line from the movie Diner.

Guy just made plays. Unheralded but earned a single digit jersey! I don't recall him ever missing a game w/ injury (unless it was back before he became a regular on the field). He would get laid out a couple times times a game... get taken off the field... next thing you know he's back out there, finishing the game.

He could make all league in G5 or certainly FCS.

FWIW I talked his Mom at BTs Smokehouse before the game at UConn.

Per Dan Reeves, Ted Gregory was 5’9”. From Wikipedia
“Gregory was selected in the first round of the 1988 NFL Draft by the Denver Broncos.[1]He listed his height as 6'1".[2] However, a shocked Dan Reeves, who is also listed as 6'1"[3] commented, "I'm taller than he is!" upon meeting Gregory after the draft. By Reeves' estimate, Gregory was closer to 5'9".[4]”
