Older brothers Kenneth (Gardner-Webb) and Tim (NC State) played collegiately in the 1990s, while brothers Tank (Tuskeegee) and Aaron (East Carolina) are currently on college rosters. Another set of brothers on Gardner-Webb’s ros- ter – Robert McKoy and Keante McNair – are part of a group of four brothers to play college football. Older siblings Terrell Manning (NC State) and Artemis Robinson (NC State) played collegiately, with Manning drafted by the Green Bay Packers in 2012. Current GWU teammates and brothers Elijah Rodgers (Fr.) and Kobe Rodgers (R-So.) are both expected to garner snaps in the secondary this season for the Runnin’ Bulldogs.

MORE MOVES
Gardner-Webb was forced to make additional position moves last week due to injuries, particularly on the defensive side. Three-star safety Malachi Buckner (6-1, 200, Fr.) moved up to the SPUR linebacker spot on the depth chart and saw significant snaps against No. 6 Wofford. Buckner finished with three solo stops, one tackle for loss and a forced fumble in the game – with the fumble leading to a GWU touchdown on the ensuing drive. The former Tucker (Ga.)

Gardner-Webb defensive end John Singleton (6-5, 240, R-Fr.) was a bright spot at Sun Belt powerhouse Appalachian State on September 22, finishing the game with a career-high six stops (three solo) and a sack. The former Middle Creek (N.C.) High standout followed that effort up with a career-high 10 total stops vs. No. 6 Wofford (9/29). Singleton, Special Teams Player of the Week who has started all six games this season, has posted 24 tackles and 2.0 sacks during his first season on the field. Kyle Horton GWU Colin Gary CAM RAMSEUR OUT Isaac Foster KSU Preseason All-Big South nose guard Josh Ramseur (5-11, 286, R-Sr.) will miss the entire 2018 season after undergo- Brad Dennis CAM ing offseason surgery, but will apply for a medical redshirt and a sixth year of eligibility for 2019. The former Burns James Allen CSU (N.C.) High standout totaled 50 tackles as a redshirt junior and is expected to make a full recovery. The bright spot in Kyle Reighard CSU the extended career is that Ramseur will have a chance to play against his youngest brother – Aaron Ramseur – when Gardner-Webb travels to East Carolina on September 7, 2019. HIT MAN
Mike linebacker Corey Horne (6-1, 225, Sr.) has been a mature force for Gardner-Webb’s young defense so far this season, pacing the Big South Conference with 56 total tackles (38 solo). His 16 stops vs. Western Carolina were a new career-high total, breaking the mark set one week earlier when he had 12 tackles at No. 5 North Carolina A&T (9/8). Horne, who is in his second full season as a starter, ranks No. 10 nationally in solo tackles per game (6.3). OLD FACES, NEW PLACES
Gardner-Webb moved a pair of players to full-time slot receiver prior to the 2018 season and those moves have been Freshman of the Week well received so far. Former running back Jonathan Blackmon (6-1, 186, Sr.) caught a career-best nine balls at Juwon Farri MON Appalachian State and is tied for the team lead with 23 catches so far this season. The Fayetteville, N.C., native was Caleb Snead CAM an accomplished high school receiver before signing with Gardner-Webb as a running back prior to the 2015 season. Former quarterback Brody Rollins (5-11, 185, Sr.) led Gardner-Webb in receptions last season – despite splitting time Caleb Snead CAM at his old position and as a kickoff return man – and provides another excellent option for GWU’s young quarterbacks. Justice Galloway-Velazquez CAM The Knoxville, Tenn., native missed three games with an injury early in September, but is back in the lineup heading Juwon Farri MON into October action. Dorian Jones CAM UP NEXT
Gardner-Webb welcomes a much needed open date to the schedule on October 20 after seven-straight weeks of a tough 2018 schedule. GWU returns to action the following week on the road, traveling to face in-state foe Campbell for the first time in the sport of football since the two started playing at the senior college level. The two teams played 10 times during their respective junior college eras, with the Camels owning a 4-3-3 series edge. Gardner-Webb won the last meeting on November 11, 1950 by a 12-6 score in Buies Creek. † 2018 GARDNER-WEBB FOOTBALL GAME NOTES
