Sam and Brad caught up with former Tallmadge Head football coach Alan Vanderink to talk about his departure from Tallmadge High School and his arrival to Kent Roosevelt.

They also got into their NFL Picks ahead of the AFC and NFC Championship games.

On this week's edition of Camp Days, we took a look at the Kent Roosevelt Rough Riders at the Suburban League Media Days last week.

Tim King, head coach of the Rough Riders spoke about what the expectations are for 2016.

 "We're going to be a young team this year, we'll have a lot of sophomores and juniors playing for us this year and we're excited to get this season started and make a run at the Suburban League title."

The Rough Riders are in their second year in the Suburban League and they appreciate the competition and natural rivalries that spawned from the joining of the 15 teams.

A bomb threat on a bathroom wall forced the evacuation, lockdown and eventual class dismissal at Kent Roosevelt High School on Friday morning.

Administrators didn't find anything before students were sent home, but say they evacuated as a safety precaution.

The Beacon Journal reports that the incident at Kent Roosevelt came a day after a similar incident in Stow, where a band concert was cancelled at Kimpton Middle School after a threat was found on a wall there.

No explosives were found.
