Name Pronunciations

[PSU1991]

OK, I'm a word nerd. I like to know how to pronounce players' names correctly. I think someone asked about Saquon Barkley. Here are the pronunciations from today's release.

Are you sure that the accent is on the last syllable for Apke, Blacknall and Gesicki?

 

[PSUSignore]

I just listen to how Pam Ward pronounces it, then do the opposite. Usually a pretty safe bet.

"It may be spelled 'Richard Luxury Yacht' but it's pronounced 'Throat-Wobbler Mangrove'"

One more to add: Ricky "Makin' it" Rahne.
