Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
Sorry wlu, but that calendar is awful. Everybody who isn't a terrorist loves triv and so I'm going to see if I can come up with a better daily question. Winner gets a GOLD FUCKING STAR (stars are fiat and not backed by actual gold). Gold fucking stars can be traded for goods and services such as PBRs and frotting.
FIRST Q: Who became the first sophomore to declare for the NFL draft?

Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
99% positive it isn't Johnny football. Aldon Smith did it at Missouri I believe, but no idea if he was the first, but he is my guess.Jerloma wrote:Is it Johnny Football?
My gall is sufficiently mitigated. Thank you for your concern.

Nope. Keep going back

Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
Didn't a D-lineman get drafted by the Cardinals with no college experience? I know you need to be 3 years removed from high school, but I recall someone doing this somehow.
I'll throw out a guess of Maurice Clarrett. Is he in the Hall of Fame yet? Can't miss prospect.

Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
Clarrett is who I was thinking of, but he wasn't eligible yet and had to sue. He lost, I think.
Totally Kafkaesque

Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
Clarett and Mike Williams won their lawsuit and then lost on appeal. And then the NCAA dictators didn't give them an exception, putting them in limbo for a year. I think the NCAA should have reinstated them, but apparently they don't really give too much of a shit about their athletes.
Anyway, it wasn't Clarett.

Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
Asked some other people, and one said Bernie Kosar, which looks damn correct. However, he went in the supplemental draft that they created for him.
So - it's not Bernie Kosar. First to declare for the real NFL draft in April.

Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
Weirdly, this one is very difficult to Google. I tried to confirm my answer and couldn't get a result without inserting his name in the search (which is why I missed Kosar).

Yes. For sure. I'd love to put that together or participate. Absolutely. Just need three contestants and a spare to commit time (couple of hours).

ETA: I'll give myself a nope, as I think I found the answer. Unless he (or she) played a different position than the guy I am thinking of.

Hmmm . . . "declared" doesn't mean anyone actually drafted him. Yeah, I have no idea.
