He also played guard rather than tackle. Moves like that are often at the behest of NFL scouts who want to see someone play at their projected NFL position.

We were watching some of the game at the Buffalo Wild Wings in Hattiesburg before the basketball game and I thought I saw Callaway on the sidelines during the game.. Your comment makes me think my eyesight is still fairly good.

Just asking - What would it tell UAB supporters if their former FBHC, after shopping himself to the colleges and now the pros, still does not land a coaching job at either level?

Yep. Call me crazy but...CNC never struck me as a real "go-getter".

So I guess it's business as usual for Neal. That's pretty much what he's been doing since 2006.
