Football Friday Week Five: Meet Ryan Blake + GIVEAWAY!

HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE! Congratulations again on making it through yet another week. I know you are all excited to see another one, I just can't believe it's here so fast! Before you start the weekend off right, I have another special edition of OneGuysGuideToGoodReads to share with ya'll. I know you guys are just as excited as I am so here we go: it's Football Friday!! As you guys have undoubtedly heard, I am an avid fan of Cora Carmack and a member of her Street Team, promoting her newest Rusk University series, starting with All Lined Up, coming at ya on May 13! Just in case you have been living under a rock, I have all the information about All Lined Up available on the sidebar of my blog! Look over here>>>>>

In case you guys aren't good with math, that's only 2 weeks away! Not even that, just 11 days! Cora and our amazing crew have decided to reward you, the readers, with a special treat each Friday. I welcome you to our fifth Football Friday! Each Friday until release day I, along with my fellow Street Teamers and Cora herself, will be giving you guys an insight to six of the books main characters!  Check out my previous Football Friday posts at any of the links below! Each one is about a different character in Cora's All Lined Up!


Alright everyone, hope you're ready, because here is week five of Rusk University Football Friday!



This week I am very proud to present to you one of the very important member of the supporting cast of All Lined Up: Ryan Blake, team manager of the Rusk University Wildcats!


Ryan Blake

Ryan is a little difficult to write about, I am not going to lie to you guys. While he plays a huge part in our story, his character is well, you are just going to have to read and figure it out for yourself! Ryan starts out as one of those characters you are just not sure about, but by the end he becomes "one of the gang". Ryan's primary job in All Lined Up is as the team manager for the Rusk University Wildcats where he works closely with our quarterback, Carson McClain. Ryan become the closest thing Carson has to a best friend at Rusk and their friendship is actually pretty cool. Ryan genuinely cares about the players on the team and works hard to make sure they do their best both on, and off, the field.   Next week, our last Football Friday (GASP) will introduce you all to the rest of the Wildcats as well as Coach Cole. After you meet the team, you will begin to understand why Ryan is a special character. I don't know if it's too spoliery to say, but I am gunning for a Ryan-Stella story, I think that'd be kick ass. I'll have to run that one by Cora! :) Check out these awesome graphic made by Amber, Yvette, and Kim from the Street Team! They really went above and beyond this week for us! 




Three guesses as to who this quote comes from? Starts with a Stella and ends with a Santos! Stella is hilarious!



















  
Alright guys, that's all I have for you on the topic of our team manager, Mr. Ryan Blake, but wait, THERE'S MORE!! Several of the other amazing Street Team members that I have the great fortune of working with are giving you THEIR take on Ryan! Wanna learn more? Check out any of their blogs below!





Before you leave, how about another awesome giveaway from Cora? Up for grabs this week are a SIGNED advanced copy of All Lined Up! Can't say I wouldn't mind that prize myself!

Well guys, this brings us to the end of yet another exciting Football Friday. I am a little sad to say that we will only have one more. Football Fridays have been the coolest thing to do. I am hoping to get the chance to participate in the next Street Team so there may be more Football Fridays to come. Don't get upset though, I am on the official blog tour for All Lined Up so you guys can look forward to a FULL exciting post full of graphics, videos, etc, I will be pulling out ALL THE STOPS for that one on May 27th. You guys will actually be seeing that one while I am out of the country (going to Mexico for my senior trip, only two weeks until I am a college graduate! Ahh!), but I will have a co-blogger make sure everything is up and running for you guys. In the coming weeks be on the look out for some info on upcoming author events and a few more book reviews I am working on! Don't be a stranger guys, comment below and say hey! I'd love to hear from my readers! Happy Reading!
