If Ash really goes away from the pro set,will it be tougher to get players into the pros?

My alma mater!!!!!!!!!! Looks like he has added about 20 more pounds since Rutgers. Looks like a bull.

Very proud of Michael. Great kid, and good player for us. Hope he has a long NFL career.

The school Ash is coming to us from, tOSU, seems to do a pretty good job of putting players into the pros and they don't run the pro set.

As Ash recruits prospects he knows fit his system, and should those players be really successful at RU with that system, I think we'll put as many, if not more, guys into the NFL.

Ironically, my aunt, who has lived in Long Valley for about 60 years died last night. All her kids and a lot of her grandkids attended West Morris HS. Coincidence? I think not.

So you're saying Burton killed her when he scored his TD, like it was her life-long goal to see a local kid score before passing on?

My condolences to you and your family.

Didn't just score his first NFL TD...

He celebrated by chest-bumping MEGATRON! [banana]

I was actually thinking she guided him into the end zone since she passed before the game. She was only 4'11", but was strong as an ox

Angels in the end zone!
