Im so Geeked for pre season

   By. Damon Gibson

As a former collegiate player @ the St Augustine's College I want to personally say I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL THE NFL PRESEASON BEGINS....this is the opportunity all athletes dream of the opportunity to compete to play in the NFL...if you’re a free agent on a team that just went through the FREE AGENCEY MIX UP you should be GEEKED for a lack of a better term...Right now in camps it’s a even playing field this is just like little league all over..No contact from coaches or anybody from the organization you may have been a part of...Now it simply boils down to who is the best man that can win me a football game through the pre season, and that's who I'm going with WEEK ONE. So in my opinion do not be surprised if you see some mixed up lineups in the preseason almost to the point where viewers will start to think the COMMISH is losing his mind, don't be alarmed it’s just because of the NFL LOCKOUT... But as an analyst I'm excited about this season different faces NEW PLACES...we will see some interesting battles this season just off the strength of free agencies...ALTHOUGH there is a lot of football left to be played but like I said IM SO GEEKED FOR THE PRE SEASON....

Congratulations Walter Sanders

By. John Kamara

       Made official on Thursday July, 28^th 2011 Walter Sanders Former Standout Tailback of Saint Augustine’s college was signed to the Baltimore Ravens as an undrafted free agent. Sanders a 5’8 214lbs RB out of Baltimore, MD makes this an even more touching story. Walter Sanders said “this was a dream come true to become an NFL player out of a division 2 school”. Though he was undrafted it may was a good thing because being from the Baltimore area he got a chance to work out with all pro athletes including Ravens own Ray Rice. He stated that the coaches told him what he needed to do and he did just that. As he worked out with the players he gained confidence and new that he could make an NFL roster and now it is here.

Sanders also stated that this was to all the non believers that did not think he can make it but also a special thank you to all the support he got from the Saint Augustine’s college. In his senior season as a Falcon Sanders put up great numbers and took home great awards as well           

Sanders was named CIAA offensive player of the year after rushing for a league-high 1,377 yards and 15 touchdowns, both modern single-season school records. He leaves St. Aug as the school's career leading rusher (2,747 yards) in the modern era. He led St. Aug to a 9-2 overall mark in 2010 with the nine wins setting a modern school record. Sanders was named to the All-CIAA first team in addition to the Daktronics All-Region first team, the Don Hansen All-Super Region second team and the Boxtorow/HBCU All-America team. He was a candidate for the Harlon Hill Trophy, which is given to the Division II player of the year. In May, Sanders graduated from St. Aug with a bachelors of Science degree in business.

Sanders is the third Falcon to sign with an NFL team since 2006. The others are Alex Hall, who was drafted in 2008, and Kevin Jones, who signed as a free agent in 2006. This is a great stepping stone for HBCU’s and Saint Augustine’s college.
