Reggie speculation and other links

Even though the feedback regarding his draft status has been mixed, it looks like Reggie Jackson is keeping his name in the process. Andy Katz has Jackson on the list of those keeping their names in the Draft. I've been told that Donahue is ready to move on and put the scholarship to use. I hope there is a last minute change because both sides could benefit from Reggie playing at BC next year.


The UFL's strategy regarding player development and NFL contracts makes a lot of sense. Now -- during the lockout -- they may be able to sign some borderline players. In turn those players commit to the UFL season but can join and NFL team after the UFL season ends. Most agents are advising their potential NFL clients to avoid the UFL and wait for the lockout to end. Rich Lapham is waiting out the process with hope of NFL free agency.


A few of the ZBC crew held an interview with Matt Humphrey. The transfer will be expected to fill much of the void if Reggie does leave.


Here is Part 2 of BC Draft's interview with Chase Rettig.


BCeagles.com has been posting Q&As with our incoming basketball recruits. The latest session is with Kyle Caudill.

I'm all for more player interviews no matter where they come from...but I honestly couldn't listen to another second of that Humphrey interview.

It sounded like the mic was attached to a plastic straw inside a McDonald's cup.

UFL drafted Herzy?

Herzlich was taken with the second to last pick in the UFL draft. I'm assuming that UFL teams expect him to decline the offer to play for them, and Herzlich will just hold out until the lockout ends and tryout for an NFL team.

Pity about the sound problems, but good interview overall. Humphrey's clearly eager to play.

Who's the last BC player (in football or basketball) to leave early to enter The League? Chris Snee? Is there someone more recent that I'm missing? What about after Snee? William Green?

You can count Sean Williams if you want. He was a Junior when he "left" BC to enter the draft.
