Portsmouth Wests Ryan Sissel to Marshall

[SiderBlood]

Want to congratulate this young man on his commitment to play for the Thundering Herd. I have watched West football for 30 years and seen many great talents come through. He might have been one of the most impactful on the field at any given time. Lacked the flashiness, but played with a tenacity, toughness, and bruising power that in an ever changing game, was a true blast from the past of what an old school West Sider was suppose to play like. He left his mark and we will forever be greatful for what this young man left here at The Rock. Good luck Ryan

Glad to hear this! The Herd is getting one tough player. I first watched Sissel play in 7th grade and knew right away he had a nose for the ball and was going to be real good!

Well deserved, good luck to the young man.

Are they recruiting Ryan as a running back or a linebacker ?

Thank you. After watching him play, that's very easy to understand why.
