Pro Players
Which has had the greatest impact of our kids in the pros? Beasley, Sanders, Beach? What is Line's status? I'm not a pro watcher and haven't kept up. Any help appreciated.

Re: Pro Players
Line is on injured reserve for the Vikings. Apparently his injury wasn't serious enough to end his season but the Vikings like him enough not to cut him, so they placed him on injured reserve.
Sanders has turned in a solid season thus far as the Steelers #2 WR, though he left yesterday's game against the Lions in the first half with a foot injury. I have him on my fantasy team.
Beasley has emerged as the #3/#4 WR for the Cowboys and is a joy to watch. He has become a favorite target for Romo on 3rd down. He caught his first career TD pass earlier this season against the Broncos.
Darius Johnson and Taylor Thompson also caught their first career TD passes in recent weeks - Taylor for the Titans and Darius for the Falcons. Darius is making the most of his opportunity after being promoted from the Falcons practice squad due to some injuries.
Beach is getting good playing time as the Steelers left tackle, though it remains to be seen if he will be a good long term fit there.
During the UConn game we had a nice montage on the scoreboard of "Mustangs in the NFL." This is the type of sales pitch we need to be making to recruits in order to make up for the small size of our fan base.

Re: Pro Players
Go Mustangs is right about promoting the pro mustangs. What Texas Big 12 schools have more NFL guys from the last 4 years than us? Especially receivers. Maybe Baylor. I know TCU puts the high school coaches names along with the picture of the starters on their video board. If I was the SID I would include their parents, grandparents too because when you are recruiting you are not just recruiting the kid but everyone who has an influence on the kid.
