Were you paying attention?


Recently we've had discussions about the status of running backs and quarterbacks on this blog. This link should bring up both past posts and comments stream.

Did you notice in the UMass Banquet link who won the award for outstanding Scout Players for 2007?

Octavious Hawkins and Emil Iqwenaqu won the 2007 Outstanding Offensive Scout Team Awards. The Blog can't wait for the spring game to see them play. Running other teams offenses should have given both players a lot of experience. And playing against the UMass defense should have honed their physical skills.

I just re-read Iqwenaqu's bio. He averaged 13.9 yards/carry in his senior year. He has a career 10.7 yards/carry average. Can't wait to see both players in action!
