OL Brian Winters, NY Jets, he's a Kent State guy, not Temple. Usama Young is on Oakland not the Jets. Also, shame we no longer have Josh Cribbs and James Harrison in the league, I believe each could still play.

They missed a lot of UMass players

Victor Cruz NY Giants
Vladimir Ducasse Vikings
James Ihedigbo Lions
Jeremy Cain, Chicago Bears

NIU fans: Any rumors on where Jordan Lynch might wind up now that he was cut by the Bears? Expectations were high (set by the local newspapers) that Trestman would keep Lynch on practice squad to allow him more time to learn special teams, etc., but it didn't work out that way.

Given his flexibilities on running and passing, I would think he'd be a great candidate for the CFL if another NFL team doesn't pick him up. That wide open CFL game would seem to suit his strengths.

You are missing a top 5 D-lineman that went to Temple...Think Jets...

Last I heard he was selling shoes...

I've heard rumblings of the CFL. Not sure if Polish is trying to make a joke or not, he probably cashed a nice little check on that MJ deal.

Could be those UMass players never actually played in the MAC. UMass has only been in the MAC a few years. Most likely UMass joined after they graduated.

It's been a while since he's been at UB but I'm pretty sure his name is James Starks. You may want to correct that. Thx.

Yep, Starks had some good carries last night.

Packers Fan here: Picked him up on my fantasy incase Lacy got hurt...and first game went down with a concussion. Expect more carries from the UB grad vs. NYJ next week.
