Interesting Pro Bowl Stat

Post by gmartin »

Kent State has 3 starters playing in the Pro Bowl, tied for most players starting from one university.

Josh Cribbs
Antonio Gates
James Harrison

And the funny thing? None of these players were drafted. All three were selected as Free Agents.

So even if Freddie doesn't get drafted there is hope!

Another funny thing is they never won a sausage in college. How does a "pro Bowl" producing football program not having a winning season in decades? (Don't forget Edelemann of the Pats either.)

I was just mentioning the STARTERS in the Pro Bowl. Actually I believe there are 7 active players from Kent State playing in the NFL.

I was responding to Rollo, and adding to how pathetic Kent State program is.

I find it amazing that so many Kent State players are in the NFL and yet their program never does much of anything.
