Football: Streeter starts in return game

Joshua Parrott • jparrott@theadvertiser.com • September 3, 2010

Julian Shankle won the right to start at tailback for UL in Saturday’s season-opener at nationally ranked Georgia, but all-purpose back Kevis Streeter also earned a spot in the starting lineup.

Streeter, a transfer from Iowa Western Community College, is listed as the primary kickoff and punt returner for the Ragin’ Cajuns going into the first game.

“I’m just glad to be on the field,” Streeter said. “I just want to be on the field and be a threat.”

The 5-foot-8, 187-pound junior certainly was a threat last season. He rushed for more than 700 yards and accounted for 12 touchdowns – five on special teams.

“He did it (return kicks) in junior college, and that’s what caught my eye when we saw his film,” UL coach Rickey Bustle said. “He can be a threat with the ball in his hands if he can get a couple of steps going.”

According to Streeter, his game is similar to that of former Detroit Lions great Barry Sanders and current Jacksonville Jaguars Pro Bowler Maurice Jones-Drew.

Like Sanders and Jones-Drew, Streeter has a muscular lower body that allows him to shed much-larger defenders as well as the speed and shiftiness to make plays in the open field.

“I compare myself to Jones-Drew and Barry Sanders because I’m swifty,” said Streeter, a native of St. Augustine, Fla. “And when I get north and south, you’ve got to come catch me.”

McGuire update
UL quarterback Brad McGuire met Thursday with another doctor, who stated in the re-evaluation that his injured left foot was not bad enough to require surgery.

According to a source close to the situation, the doctor recommended to place McGuire’s left foot in a protective boot for 5-to-6 weeks and see if it can heal itself without surgery.

Surgery would end his season, so McGuire is expected to go the conservative route for now and hope for a quick recovery.

McGuire, ruled out for the Georgia game, led the Cajuns with seven rushing touchdowns last season with most of his playing time coming in short-yardage and goal-line situations.

With McGuire out, sophomore Blaine Gautier has been working this week with the second-team offense despite still recovering from a broken finger on his throwing (left) hand.

McGuire, who moved to fullback last spring due to injuries in the backfield, returned to quarterback two weeks ago when Gautier broke his finger.

Football: Cajuns sign JUCO all-purpose back

Joshua Parrott jparrott@theadvertiser.com December 17, 2009

It took two stops along the way, but Kevis Streeter finally realized a life-long dream on Wednesday morning.

Streeter, an all-purpose back from Iowa Western Community College, became the first signee in UL’s 2010 recruiting class after inking a national letter of intent on the NCAA’s first day of the midyear junior college signing period.

“I’m pretty excited,” said Streeter, a native of St. Augustine, Fla. “It’s a great feeling to know that I’m going to be playing Division I football.”

Speed is a notable virtue for the 5-foot-8, 185-pound Streeter, who has been timed at 4.4 seconds in the 40-yard dash.

Streeter accounted for 12 touchdowns this season, including five as a kick returner, and rushed 97 times for 733 yards and six touchdowns in IWCC’s first year of competition. He finished in the NJCAA Region 11’s top five in rushing, total touchdowns and total offense despite missing two games with an ankle injury.

Middle Tennessee and Wyoming also extended scholarship offers to Streeter, while Clemson and Oregon expressed strong interest. He has two years of eligibility left and will enroll at UL in January to participate in spring drills.

Streeter is expected to make an immediate impact on special teams for the Cajuns, who finished last in the nine-team Sun Belt Conference this season in yards per kickoff return.

“I think I’ve got a little variety of skills,” Streeter said. “I have speed, power, quicks and can run with the ball and return kicks. I can do everything.”

That confidence was found during Streeter’s prep days at Florida powerhouse St. Augustine.

As a junior, he racked up 422 rushing yards and five touchdowns on 76 carries as a starting flanker for a Yellow Jacket squad that won Florida’s 3A state title in 2005.

A high ankle sprain bothered Streeter as a senior in 2006, but he was still an honorable mention all-area selection after gaining 899 yards from scrimmage and scoring eight touchdowns. He held offers from Kentucky, Toledo and Middle Tennessee among others but took the junior college route due to academics.

Streeter ended up at North Iowa Area Community College and earned honorable mention NJCAA Region XI honors as a freshman in 2007 after rushing for 695 yards and eight scores on 119 carries.

NIACC coach Scott Strohmeier left that offseason to start up the program at IWCC, and Streeter followed him there. Streeter sat out as a redshirt in 2008 before playing for the Reivers in their inaugural season.

While Streeter has signed with UL, the Cajuns have to wait for their six other public verbal commitments to officially join the program.

Kilgore (Texas) Junior College defensive lineman Benay Pryer, a former LSU commitment, still has one class to finish before he is expected to sign on National Signing Day on Feb. 3. The Baton Rouge native plans to visit UL’s campus the weekend of Jan. 15.

Former Mamou all-state tailback Robert Walker, a 2009 signee who was deemed academically ineligible in the fall, has committed to enroll at UL in January and compete in spring drills. He has four years of eligibility remaining.

UL’s four publicly committed prep seniors — tight end/H-back Amari Williams (Daytona Beach, Fla.), cornerback Trevence Patt (Breaux Bridge), defensive lineman/linebacker Jacob Molbert (Notre Dame) and offensive lineman Andre Huval (St. Thomas More) — cannot sign earlier than Feb. 3.

On Tuesday, UL coach Rickey Bustle said that the program plans to sign 22 prospects for next season. The Cajuns will look to sign more recruits from two-year schools throughout the midyear junior college signing period, which ends Jan. 15.

They are looking for impact newcomers at specific positions, notably on the defensive line and in the defensive secondary.

Walker to Tulsa
In other news concerning a UL recruiting target, Jones County (Miss.) Junior College coach Eddie Pierce said Wednesday that his NJCAA All-America defensive end Tyrunn Walker had signed with Tulsa.

The 6-5, 270-pound Walker, a Westgate graduate, took visits to Tulsa, UL and Toledo in the past two weeks before picking the Golden Hurricane.

“From what he told me, he signed with Tulsa because he felt really comfortable on his visit, but that isn’t a knock on (UL),” Pierce said.

“He wasn’t going to sign with Toledo because he said it was way too cold when he got off the plane on his visit.”

Walker, who has 4.84-second speed in the 40-yard dash, recorded 50 tackles and seven sacks this season. He has two years of eligibility remaining, and Pierce expects Walker to find more success in Conference USA.

“He was one of the best defensive players we’ve ever had here, and I think that his best football is ahead of him,” Pierce said. “He’s a great football player, but he’s also a great person. I’m really happy for him.”

Alexander chooses Southeastern La.

Hinds (Miss.) Commun-ity College receiver Trey-vias Alexander had an offer from the Cajuns, according to scout.com, but his former prep coach said the Breaux Bridge graduate will continue his career at Southeastern Louisiana.

“Southeastern’s coaches are committed to him, and he is committed to them,” Breaux Bridge coach Mike Mowad said.

“He’s ready to go play there.”

The 6-2, 205-pound Alexander earned second team MACJC all-state honors each of the past two seasons. After making 38 catches for 758 yards and 10 touchdowns last year, he had 30 receptions for 409 yards and three scores this season.

Rivals.com rates Alex-ander a three-star recruit with offers from Louisiana Tech, Ole Miss, Southern Miss and Utah State. According to scout.com, he had offers from the Cajuns, Tulsa, Southern Miss and Ole Miss.

Mowad added that Alexander’s brother, Breaux Bridge senior defensive tackle Churphy Steward, will graduate early and enroll at Hinds Community College in the spring.

Steward was a first team Class 4A all-state pick and The Daily Advertiser’s 2008 All-Acadiana Defensive Player of the Year as a junior after logging 85 tackles, 11 tackles for loss and five sacks. He battled injuries as a senior and was a second team All-District 6-4A selection.

Rivals.com considers Steward to be a three-star recruit and the nation’s 79th-best defensive tackle with offers from Tulsa and Louisiana Tech.
