James Starks obituary

by Steve

Alright, this is officially the saddest post of my blogging career. James Starks, the greatest running back in the University @ Buffalo's history is o ver. A torn labrum has ended the pereneial all MAC player's career in college football.

A Niagara Falls stand out emerged in 2008. Not only did he become one of the more dynamic running backs in college football; he brought his team to something never before thought of @ UB, a Championship. He missed three games yet ran for 1,333 yards. A SCHOOL RECORD.

The news that he is out for the year is not only disheartening it is also a death knell to the hopes of the Bulls 2009 repeat hopes. FUCKIN Kiper Jr was lovin' this kid. This injury not only kills the UB season it also kills his draft status. His red shirt fifth year status makes for 0 years of eligibility left. God fuckin damn it.

I'm really beat up about this whole thing. I don't even know how to end this rant other than hoping the Bulls earn another bowl spot, he shows up, balls, then owns the combine in March. Hopefully Naaman and co can lift the team to the level it now needs to be lifted.

GILL ... BALL
