Didn't need Joe Blow's blog to realize this, but thanks for noticing.

It'll be interesting to see if Morestead will get drafted or will he have to walk-on at a pro camp.

Sanders will get some NFL looks, especially with the way some teams are really hurting at WR.

Morestead has actually taken a shot or two at the 'coffin corner' - a real thing of the past. I love it.

For those that don't know - Cavan was very close to bringing in P Shane Lechler to the hilltop (currently with OAK).

He chose to become an Aggie. Little did he know that he could have broken all of the SMU punting records . . . .

Coach Jones has said repeatedly he thinks Sanders will play on Sundays. Today he compared Sanders - for the second time in a couple of weeks - to Jerry Rice. He was quick to say Sanders is not Rice, but he's a very talented guy with a sensational work ethic - that's the Rice comparison Coach Jones keeps bringing up.

I think Sanders has the ability to play in the NFL too. As for Morstead, he is a damn good punter.

And for good measure, Coach Jones has said Aldrick Robinson has a chance to be the best outside WR he EVER has coached.

He majored in History at Texas A&M with a pair of NCAA records. A career punt average of 44.7 and career games with a 40-yard-plus average.
