Very nice, now that I live in Dallas and have to watch the girls I will keep an out for him. Always good when MAC players perform in the NFL, scoop and scores are always awesome.

I mainly reference Wolfe because he was perhaps the best back in MAC history and torched OSU and Michigan but was never a playmaker at the next level. That was all. I'm not trying to discredit Fluellen I just want to point out the nfl is an extremely difficult league.

Can't argue with much of that. Few MAC backs have excelled in the NFL. Preston had a couple years, Taylor, Nottingham, Carpenter had a long career but was more of a blocker in the pros. Turner was pretty good, Wolfe wasn't. We've done much better with receivers and QBs.

Not saying Wolfe ever would have been a stud but he ended up on a team with no O-line for the past several years (this year is the first time they seem to have decent blocking). And clueless OCs. If he had been on New England or some other teams they probably would have known how to use him as a role player.
