Monday News ------ August 16th, 2010

UMass beat writer Matty Vautour has a feature article on Emil Igwenagu. Too bad the UMass biology dept can't clone Igwenagu. I'd like to have him at both FB and TE.

Matty also has a story about tonight's Jets-Giants game, which will have three UMass alumni playing: Victor Cruz, James Ihedigbo and Vladimir Ducasse.

Matty's on a roll with his All-UMass Transfer team. If he ever does an All-Juco team, he should start with Todd Bankhead.

The EagleTribune has an All-Decade team, which includes former UMass fullback Kyle B. Harrington (2004,2005,2006).
