Monday--March 5th, 2012

Matty V said in his story last week that UMass will add two one-year players who have earned their degrees and are eligible to play as transfers.

That got me thinking about previous graduate players.

At the Top of the list would be Jimmy Moore who had 92 catches for 1,494 yards in 1998 and was a big cog in our National Championship season.

Tim Washington had 55 carries for 205 yards and 3 TD's as well as 9 REC for 93 yards in 2006 and was a factor in our run to the 2006 National Championship game.

Can anyone think of another one year graduate player who make a big impact with UMass?
