UT players Bruce Gradkowski and CB Antonio Malone have both been invited to the NFL scouting combine. Any reports from other MAC schools on who got invited from their schools?
No one from BG, either, but there is
this kid on the list!
Miles Austin, Monmouth
There's also a guy from Tarleton St., Nebraska-Kearney, & Bloomsburg St. I've never even heard of those schools!!
Don't knock the small schools. They can get players in the NFL too. There was a DB from a D-II school that got drafted last year. The RB for the Eagles is from Villanova, D-IAA. Jerry Rice went to a small school too, something like Missouri Valley State or something like that.
In fact, if you look at NFL rosters there are several guys from D-IAA or lower.

I know that. Samkon Godo at Green Bay was a backup RB (maybe 3rd string) at Liberty. Look where he is now: starter in his rookie season in the NFL (allbe it b/c of injury on a bad team).
