I've heard that some of this year's foetuses are looking good for 2029....

Someone to keep an eye on for the 2028 draft is a kid named Harrison Brady. Don't know his last name or if he's committed to a college yet, ( BC is possible).

Five forced fumbles from a 5'9" CB is an oddity. It either says a lot about his tackling ability, or a lot about his ability to dive at opponents legs, or the utter lack of quality opponents.

On Path To The Draft, they claim the Nebraska-Oklahoma Spring Scrimmage would be broadcast live 9 p.m. Saturday, April 14. My DVR lists that as the Welcome Rookie program they love so much...the bastiches aren't the best for updating their schedule.

I've been a huge Sam Keller fan for a couple of years now. ASU definitely did him dirty. I was stunned he went to Nebraska over a 1AA school so he could play in '06....and even more surprised that if he was determined to sit out a year that he opted for Nebraska instead of a pro-style offense. I would have loved to see him at Syracuse in '07...instead of trying to run a pro-style offense with the option quarterbacks that they've recruited in the past, or even a school like UCLA or Wazzou.
