While certainly players and Tebow and Locker are obvious candidates for the current "wildcat" formations as people know them, I think their real potetnial hasn't been realized yet because teams haven't had a player like those two on the team before. That includes the UW who never surrounded Locker with complimentary players and take advantage of his strengths. Frankly I think he made a mistake in coming back.

But in the end, I think both will be drafted, but after the first round, and both be in the NFL for years to come.

Thanks Mike for the Reply.........and I'm interested in your response to Dave

Personally, I like Locker a lot and PR stunts aside I'd take him over Tebow any day.

Actually QB, Dan LeFevour from Central Michigan played well.
We've seen him play for 4 yrs, Because my son's Friend played for Western Michigan. He (LeFevour) has a good arm.

The mayor of Indy is going to send along with other food, Shrimp Cocktail from St. Elmo's to New Orleans.........What? send Shrimp to New Orleans.......That would be like sending Louisiana Sweet Corn to Indiana.

I've had it at St. Elmos - it's really good, spicey hot, (& expensive).......But it's not like New Orleans doesn't have Shrimp Let alone spicey Shrimp.......


Enjoy - Indy

Watch out for 4 yr starting QB's from MAC schools. They have a history of doing well in NFL not hall of fame great but don't seem to flame out as much of some of the major college conferences.

NOTE: I am a little biased on MAC QB's since I graduated from Miami University and I cannot tell you how painful it was to see Ben Roethlisberger get drafted by Pittsburgh. Your welcome MKM.

What a great idea starting up a Mouse Owners Dad's squad. Sadly I can't join. I only have the 4 legged furry kind of kids. Great idea though.

Hey CinCin --

Freeney's Ankle injury, That can really hurt our defense. Even if he's not getting sacks, Teams usually double team him, that frees up other defenders. If he doesn't play....... that will be big for the Saints.

Definitely don't want to wish anyone to have an injury -- but that would be HUGE for the Saints! Freeney is a PLAYER! Of course you all still have that pesky QB -- what's his name.

No, I went to Miami from 88-93 so he is a little before my time. but found this second longest TD in Miami history through google.

91 (t) from Chuck Hauck to Don Treadwell at Kent State, 1979

Glad you stopped by. You're welcome to jump into the discussion now and again, if a topic interests you. We even have a couple of ladies who chime in from time to time. We just don't give 'em numbers or the address of the clubhouse....
