I thought they're supposed to finish their military service commitment first? Maybe they do it in the reserves? If an Air Force alum reads this please clarify. Quote

They didn’t have a single player record a stat in the NFL this year, which is pretty wild for an FBS program. I’m sure that will change in the coming years. 1 Quote

Despite all the success of BSU, the Broncos never produced a WR (Kenan McCardell) or QB (Randall Cunningham) or NFL Rookie (Elburt "Ickey" Woods) of the year like UNLV McCardell is 29th in NFL history in receptions & 39th in career yardage Think the last UNLV player to last a few years in the NFL was an OL Joe Hawley Professional career [edit] Atlanta Falcons [edit] Hawley was selected in the fourth round of the 2010 NFL draft by the Atlanta Falcons.[3][4] On September 7, 2015, he was released by the Falcons.[5] Tampa Bay Buccaneers [edit] On September 14, 2015, Hawley was signed by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.[6] On March 15, 2017, Hawley signed a two-year contract with the Buccaneers.[7] During 2017, the team moved Ali Marpet to center from his original guard position, replacing Hawley.[8][9] On February 26, 2018, the Buccaneers declined the second-year option on Hawley's contract, making him a free agent in 2018.[10][11] Retirement [edit] Hawley spent eight years in the NFL Quote
