[NU Sports] Off season capers...

[Roy S. Lamberton]

On Noah - he ran some pretty impressive times at the Indy combine - he was
pretty heavily scouted by a few teams and based on last year, his Senior Bowl
and the Combine should be somebody's fullback of the future.

I know he'd rather be a tailback somewhere, or the feature back in a one back
offense, but his skills remind me of another NFL great, Matt Snell, who could do
it all for the Jets, and who played 4 different positions in college [at dOSU]

Time will tell, I think Luis C also turned a few heads at Indy. There were no
reports on any other Cats that I've been able to glean so far
