From USA Today Packerwire

In addition to signing running back Corey Grant, the Green Bay Packers also added rookie defensive lineman and former Wisconsin Badgers standout Olive Sagapolu to the roster on Friday, according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN.

Sagapolu is on the field and wearing No. 67 for the start of Friday’s training camp practice at Nitschke Field.

The 6-2, 335-pound Sagapolu was an All-Big Ten pick for the Badgers as a nose tackle during the 2017 season. His senior season ended with a shoulder injury after eight games. Sagapolu tallied eight tackles for losses and five sacks over his final two seasons in Madison.

The Samoan native is maybe best known for his backflips on the beach.

Cool! It’s nice that they are given one of our own (a Wisconsin Badger) a shot at making the team!

I wonder if Olive will bring Popeye along with him?🤣

You're just full of them today aren't you Cheesey.😉

Or is it just that you are full of it. 😉 😉


I tried to think of a reply for the other thread but nothing that tied in to old virginny came to mind. Old virgins yes but not old virginny.

Cheesey lost his virginity before his dad did.

I'm happy to see GB sign him and hope that his shoulder heals well. He is quite athletic with good size so I think he has a chance to contribute. UW really missed him the last 5 games. It would be great to see him be a really big steal. Best wishes.

That’s true.... I looked for HOURS and found it under my bed! It’s always in the last place you look!
Of course if it was in the FIRST place you looked, it wouldn’t be lost!😂

How about....”yes Virginny, there IS a Santa Clause!”
(Yes, I AM full of it!!!)
Remember, I EARNED the nickname CHEESEY!😂

I know that Gutey is big on athleticism and raw measureables, but this might be a little ridiculous

---

There have been plenty of college players over the past few years who posted spectacular stunt videos on YouTube but never amounted to anything in the NFL.

---

That’s true. Being athletic helps of course, but that doesn’t mean it’s going to translate into being great on the football field.

Oh....and being as I brought up Popeye.....what was Popeye’s favorite cookware?






“PYREX of the Caribbean”!!!!!😂
