If DE prospect, Owamagbe Odighizuwa becomes a hard hitting Duck, what will tongue-tied terrors of the airways, such as Jerry Allen and Joe G, nickname him? O0oooo-WHAM!!!... ?
What about other potential or currently committed Ducks?

Re: Nicknames for prospects
I have a feeling Ethan Grant may be scoring to quickly for them to even finish pronouncing his name. "It's a hand off to Ethan Graaa-TOUCHDOWN DUCKS!!"

Re: Nicknames for prospects
Boseko Lokombo sounds like a nickname already
There was also some 2010 prospect with some ridiculous name like Fray Cray or something similar to that. I love it when recruits have fun names.

Re: Nicknames for prospects
Boseko is from the Congo, hence the different name. And he speaks French, we conversed several times on facebook! A really nice guy!
Notice the plane that we flew on?

Re: Nicknames for prospects

In Helfrich, Frost, and Allioti we trust

Littlejohn was the hard hitting Dude who had Robin Hood's back in Sherwood Forest... What more do you need?

How about "What can Brown do TO you" (wishful thinking)
How about a "James Brown" backfield. That is a match made in heaven - I feel good!!!

I have a feeling every time Littlejohn makes a hit tons of fans will be yelling "YEAAAAAA-YUH"

Re: Nicknames for prospects
I have enjoyed reading this thread and the nicknames associated with certain players. I still think as for the first one should just say... O Squared. I do not know what the announcers are going to call him but know I am going to laugh hearing them trying to say his name. I can hardly wait to hear Don Essig say his name... that should be fun every time. No disrespect towards Don Essig or the guy with the name. Just a curious question what is his name derived from. It sounds Kenyan to me.. any ideas.. maybe Nigerian. Juts a curious question.
