Behind the Screen: Fresh Meat 2: CJ Koegel

For over two decades, MTV's The Challenge has been the proving ground where reality TV's fiercest competitors come to cement their legacies. What started as a Real World/Road Rules spinoff has evolved into one of the most physically and mentally demanding competition series on television.

The franchise's expansion — with spinoffs in the USA, UK, Argentina, and Australia — speaks to a global appetite for the brand of cutthroat competition and alliance-driven gameplay that Vevmo's community has been tracking since 2007.

I swear he looks like Scott from the Brooklyn season with his new haircut of his...

CJ Koegel After a fun-filled season on Real World: Cancun, this aspiring NFL kicker has joined Fresh Meat 2 for his first Challenge. Clearly no stranger to demanding physical activity, CJ promises to hold his own in competition. But will this Challenge newbie be able to hang with the veterans in the social game? Or will he find himself low on the totem pole, scrambling for survival as the Challenge picks up speed?

.. He really does! Haha, if Scott were on this cast, it might be a little challenging to tell them apart at quick glances

I liked him on his season, he seemed like a nice guy, and I have to root for the UMass alum. Hope he does well.

Last Canun guy I wanted to see on a challenge.

I want to see Bronne on one of these someday, he was a riot on Cancun. Don't mind CJ though, and at the very least he's a viable athletic threat.

It will be a long time if ever. He is in college and showed no intrest in being on a challenge.

Actually he's going back to the marines after he graduates. He's a senior.

I dont see the resemblance to Scott at all lol. I'm excited to see CJ though, I think he's going to do good. But I hope we get to see Bronne on one eventually :(

I thought he didn't graduate till January of next year? I may be wrong.

Bronne went back to school is the summer to catch up for the semester he missed while he was in Cancun, so I would imagine he is a senior. Actually, 9.99% sure. Regardless, he said he's going to the marines right after he graduated.

Well Bronne was and still is in the ROTC program which means that after he finishes his education he goes to a military program. So if he hasn't finished yet he would definately be a reserve and I guess for the Navy. The contract can last along time as well as is the case of the Army which can last 8 years.

Team CJ he is the rookie and so he is capable of anything.

Do you mean, do we think CJ will go with Wes or with Kenny? Or are we pro-Wes or pro-Kenny? I think CJ will get scooped into the "main" clique, I think Wes's attitude will put him off. That being said, I am team Wes.

I'm guessing CJ probably won't do too many of these challenges if he wants to make it in the NFL. Doesn't he have try outs sometime next month?

Interesting tweets coming from CJ...
I am no longer affiliated with Bradley MacMeyer. if he contacts you on my behalf it is not legit and please let me know about it.. Hey guys my youtube video is down because my ex-manager who has been stealing money from me shut it down.
This is what his manager had to say:
"Here's a Lesson To ya !...You could have great experience in what you do ,but when you got a ****ty product to sell like "CJ KOEGEL"..it doesn't matter how hard you try ...nobody wants ...to buy a ****ty product !we tried for 5 months..so I let him go"
Old Friend#21
Thats messed up.
unamazing#22
I heard about that via facebook. Definately sounds like both sides left on bad terms, hopefully CJ can bounce back from this.

I'm sure he'll be fine..
Derek#24
ughh i hate that "manager"... I know CJ is gonna do awesome on this challenge..too bad Jonna was unable to go..i think she would have done great
Anonymous#25

shred#26
i agree with the manager. there ain't much you can do to sell ****. cj is just boring and oddly preportioned if you ask me. his hands and feet are so small!!!

That's a bit rude. You've seen CJ on an edited tv show, not the way he is in real life.

I want to see him on a team or individual challenge , he didn't show his full potential on freshmeat since his partner sucked. It would be nice to see a nice guy be a regular on this challenges ;p
Nightwolf#29
They threw that Exile, that's why it looked so bad. I don't have the explanation, but Sydney explained it somewhere.
