Good to see a USFL guy make it in Tampa Bay Bandit Nate Newton.

Kenny Easley was the first player in PAC 10 history to be voted first team all-league all four years. Quite a football player.

After Jim Otto retired in 1975 do the two men who handled the Raiders' center position for the next twenty seasons have a strong case for the Hall of Very Good? This would be David Dalby and Don Mosebar.

Thanks.

Hat tip to Joe Flacco - 470 yards at forty years old.

These are only guesses. I am thinking Herschel Walker was not selected in the 1984 Supplemental Draft because he was not eligible for it? He left Georgia early, never played the 1983 season at Georgia, and had a signed contract with the USFL Generals. White, Young and others played college football ...

I am not sure, but maybe Bobby Ross is the only coach to come from college and have a winning record in his first year in the NFL? I know Ross handled Special Teams for Marv Levy in Kansas City for a few years. Yep, Dan Henning did not have any winning seasons as an NFL head coach.

The Packers selecting Rich Campbell from Cal over Ronnie Lott set them back many years.

At 73 years old and worth $70 million, BB is just the latest in a long line of rich old farts made a fool of by some sweet young thing tickling his ego and his prostate. Kinda pathetic. He'll never finish his contract at UNC. There have to be a host of administrators at Chapel Hill hoping he quits....

Regarding the University of Maryland during that stretch, their one starting quarterback who did not play professional football was Dan Henning, whose father coached the Falcons and Chargers.

Not meaning to hijack this good thread but Bill Parcells is right when he said the Giants' defense would have been declared illegal if they had had Reggie White opposite Lawrence Taylor.
