Is Coby a pretty good JCA donor? Not sure if its true or not but heard my fellow Boilermaker Alstott wasn't.

Do not know. Not sure how much of Fleener's deal is guaranteed, but I was surprised he got that much money. The cap has gone up in the NFL, and it seems like there's been a FA frenzy.

Hopefully a lot was guaranteed and the overall was front loaded. The new Gov in LA going to be looking at every tax increase under the sun.

That's a great fit for him. He is going to fill that Jimmy Graham role. The saints are not going to ask him to block a lot, but instead be a play maker and make catches. Last years colts had him playing too much of a double tight end/ power looks. At the NFL level he is a little light in the ***, like Greg Olson. But this is perfect opportunity for him to maximize his potential. Also very glad he made that amount of money, very cool. Congrats, hope for big things.

I keep forgetting he went to JCA. That's pretty cool. Random JCA question, but what's Mike Goolsby up to these days? Another one...what about the running back Joe Van Tassle?

Not sure about Van Tassel. I believe Goolsby was on the Rams' practice squad for a season. I think he's a trainer now. In fact, I saw him training Ty Isaac this summer.
