There was a running back playing for the Panthers tonight against the Jets named Armond Smith who was credited as being from Union. I don't think he'll push Williams or Stewart out of a job but he looked pretty decent while he was in and could stick as a backup/special teamer.

Smith is from Union (KY), not Union (NY). Union (KY) is NAIA, not D3.

You know, I was kind of wondering about that, but since NAIA doesn't make a blip on my radar I went with the familiar. Not the first time for that type of goof, likely not the last either.   :)

I know he has a long way to go but UMHB's Nate Menkin survived the Texans cut to 75.

Grizzlie: Does that effort leave any time for eating and sleeping?

Jerheme Urban is still awaiting a call (Seahawks, Cardinals, Chiefs) Trinity great '03.  Currently an asst coach at Trinity..  AND we're lucky to have him!

UMHB's Nate Menkin was released by the Texans today.  He had a tough row to hoe cracking into the Texan's lineup.  Perhaps with the injury to Rashad Butler on Thursday night they will keep him around as a possible fill-in on their taxi squad or he can be picked up by someone else (Jets maybe :)).  He seemed to me to have shown something by making it to the last cut!

On the other hand, Jerrell Freeman is listed as the starting LILB with Pat Angerer still out.
My wife and I are Alumni of both UMHB and HSU.  You think you are confused, my kids don't know which Purple and Gold team to pull for.

Looks like Andy Studebaker will have another year with the Chiefs as a backup and spot starter.

historymajor, I feel like that Tiger image of yours is seducing me or something with that hip movement  :o

Nate Menkin was picked up by the Eagles to be on the 53 man roster. The eagles web site has a nice write up

How many D-3 officials are in the NFL as replacement refs?
