Donald Brown and Knowshon are not only from New Jersey, Not only played in the same conference in High School, they lined up in the same backfield in Pop Warner!!! How about that one.

Ah, shoddy research. Thanks for pointing that out, Cody. I’ll have to make sure my intern points that out next time.

Just kidding. That’s a lot of good running backs from Jersey though.

“Also, we think it’s kind of funny that Brown and Georgia’s Knowshon Moreno are both from New Jersey. Just sayin’.”

FYI….Shonn Greene is also from New Jersey, Just Sayin

Pretty sure it’s “Shepherd” College, and don’t knock ‘em just cuz they’re D-II. In ’05, they were undefeated, in ’06 their only loss was in their final game, and last year they went 10-2. Maybe they’d get their heads knocked off by any D-I school, even a bad one, but they’re good at their level. Why so elitist?

And I’d have to add that Dan LeFevour is not one of the players you know nothing about. ESPN’s featured him a few times over the last couple years, and if Iowa keeps winning, Shonn Greene won’t be under the radar much longer.

TheRiot, I hope you were ‘making fun’ of Stan’s Shepard College suggestion. Today was the first time I heard of Shepard College and hope it’s the last. Hey can you make a list of ‘Flag Football players that think they are badass”. I have a lunch time league I play in with 3 teams and I can give you a couple guys with blazing 5.0 speed, deceptive hip movements (best since Ricky Martin), throwing accuracy under the Mendoza line, and receivers that have hands of butter and vaseline.

You’re making fun of stan for bringing up a D-II player? Your list states we’ll know nothing about the players you listed and on the list you include the guy who will likely win the Groza, a Heisman candidate in Greene, a MAC player of the year in LeFevour, and the only reason anyone even talks about UConn in Donald Brown. I’ve heard plenty about 8 of these 10 guys (Anderson and Keenum excluded), and you’re mocking someone for actually applying your blog title to his response?

Keep it classy.

Stan, you’re right. We totally omitted Deante Steele from Division II Shepherd University of the mighty West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.

Maybe we’ll get to that DII list next week.

Evan Royster has a 7.7 YPC average on 116 carries. He’s not getting nearly enough ink.

Deante Steele Shepard college. Kick returner/punt returner
