America loves an underdog...and Brandon Crawford is someone I'll be rooting for later this week when the NFL holds its annual draft.

New York Times writer Judy Battista does a great job of profiling the 33-year old South Side High School (Ft. Wayne) player, who after a stint in the Marines joined the Ball St. football program, and now has an outside shot at the NFL.

Here's hoping that one NFL makes a decision with their heart and calls out his name in New York City later this week!

The Indy Star is reporting that 61-year old Bill Unsworth is coming out of retirement to take over the Edinburgh High School football program.

Unsworth, who retired two years ago after coaching for nearly 30-years on the collegiate level, last coach at the high school level in 1977 at Franklin.  Unsworth takes over for Kyle Wheeler, who was fired earlier this year after winning only one game in four seasons.

Last season the Lancers snapped a 51-game losing streak with a 12-7 win over Indiana Deaf.
