12 Shores at Ute Lake is a relatively new Jack Nicklaus design on the south shore of Ute Lake, between Logan and Tucumcari, New Mexico, on the east side of the state, exit 355 of I-40 if you're coming from Texas, or 329 at Tucumari, if you're coming from the west.
The course is part of a real estate development that's just taking off, and the course was routed through the future development, and along the lake in a beautiful setting. There's just 9 holes at the moment, and they have two sets of tees to give you a different look, yardages are from 3,600 from the red tees to almost 3,900 from the tips, we played from the blues at 3,425 yards. The layout is mostly level, a few holes right along the lake bordering wetlands. It's classic Nicklaus with a lot of bunkering, and strategic play. The fairways are bordered by tall native grasses, and well off from the desert scrub, mounded and undulating throughout, and the greens are on the large side with plenty of undulation.
No golf course reviews have been submitted on this course.

Check out the FOX 7 preseason rankings for the Central Texas high school football teams.
1. Lake Travis (2011: 16-0, Class 4A DI State Champion)
--With their state-record 5th consecutive Class 4A state championship in 2011, the Cavaliers capped the most successful five-year run in Texas high school football history. In fact, Lake Travis had more state titles than losses during that span. What would be even more impressive is if the Cavs can take home another title this season, in their first year as a Class 5A school. With the deadly combo of QB Baker Mayfield (45 TD passes in '11), WR Zach Austin (1365 yds receiving), and RB Shaun Nixon (1260 yds rushing, 20 TDs) the Cavs, who are ranked near the top of pre-season 5A state rankings, should cruise through the regular season, not seeing things get interesting until the playoffs in late November, early December. Not your typical adjustment of moving up a classification.
2. Pflugerville (2011: 5-7, lost in 1st round of playoffs)
--The Panthers took awhile to get jump-started, but bounced back nicely from missing the playoffs in 2010, with a win in the 1st round of the playoffs. This season, coach George Herrmann's team could get back to business as usual at "P-ville", challenging for a district title and making deeper runs in the playoffs, with the help of 15 returning starters.
3. Westwood (2011: 10-2, lost in 2nd round of playoffs)
--Job 1 for coach Anthony Wood is replacing perhaps the best quarterback he has had while at Westwood, two-time district MVP Ben Johnson. The Warriors will look to 12 returning starters to continue the momentum gained from last year's 10-2 campaign. November 9th's game at Pflugerville, the regular season finale, may be for district title.
4. Westlake (2011: 9-3, lost in 2nd round of playoffs)
--The experts assume everyone is playing for 2nd in District 15-5A behind Lake Travis. If that's the case, the Chaps are leading the pack in being the district runner-up. Six starters return on either side of the ball for Westlake, including six on a defense that allowed only two touchdowns in district play in 2011. The defense will have its chance to make a name of itself November 2nd at home against Lake Travis, most likely for the district title.
5. Bowie (2011: 6-5, lost in 1st round of playoffs)
--The Bulldogs' bid to return to the playoffs in 2012 should be a lock, but will be tougher with only six returning starters. Among the returners though, is DB-turned-QB Dontae Harris, and LB Ryan Taylor, who lead the Dawgs in tackles a year ago.
1. Cedar Park (2011: 11-3, DI Regional Finalist)
--Had Lake Travis moved to Class 5A in the UIL's previous realignment before the 2010 school year, we may be talking about the Cedar Park Timberwolves going for a third-consecutive 4A state championship. Both seasons, they were a touchdown away from knocking off the Cavaliers in the region final. As it stands, the TWolves were the second-best team in their region, and probably the second-best team in the state both seasons. Now with Lake Travis in 5A, Cedar Park has ideas on it being their turn to win a Class 4A crown. New coach Joe Willis will look to seven returners on offense to carry the load of a team ranked near the top of the Class 4A pre-season polls.
2. Leander (2011: 8-4, lost in 2nd round of 5A DII playoffs)
--Replacing Lake Travis as a potential thorn in the side of Cedar Park is crosstown rival Leander, who is also state ranked. Why shouldn't they be? The Lions are down from 5A after winning a district in 2011, and return nine starters on defense. The marquee game in district play between the Lions and Timberwolves is the district opener on September 28th.
3. LBJ (2011: 6-4, lost in 1st round of playoffs)
--New coach Keith Willis takes over for Demo Odems, who left the cupboard stocked with 17 returning seniors off a 2011 playoff team. The experience around him will make life easier for new QB Aiden Kahn.
4. Connally (2011: 8-3, lost in 1st round of playoffs)
--The Cougars will look to the arm of returning QB Dajon Williams to lead them to a repeat of 2011 when they won the district title. He'll have to be good, as one of only seven starters returning. One roadblock to another district title could be Georgetown, who is moving down from 5A.
5. Hays (2011: 8-4, lost in 1st round of playoffs)
--The Blake Feldt-era at Hays got off to a great start in 2011 with eight wins, including one in the playoffs. Coach Feldt and the Rebels may contend for a district title because of the QB/WR combo of quarterback Caleb Kimbro (2250 yard passing in 2011) and receiver Granger Studdard (639 yards receiving).
1. Wimberley (15-0, Class 3A DII State Champion)
--After a handful of good, but not great, seasons by Wimberley's standards, the Texans broke through with their second state title in 2011. A repeat will be difficult. Gone are offensive mainstays QB Brady Lambert, RBs Dennis Smith and Trinity Wilson, and WR Brennan Blakemore. Seven returners on defense will carry the load early.
2. Liberty Hill (2011: 8-4, lost in 2nd round of playoffs)
--After an eight win campaign, the Panthers look to get back to the form that won them back-to-back titles in the 2000s. Four returning starters on the offensive line will help. The Panthers must also deal with perennial power Brownwood now being a district foe, the two meet in Liberty Hill on October 19th.
3. Giddings (2011: 7-4, lost in 1st round of playoffs)
--The Buffs will have to grow up in a hurry in non-district play if they are to compete for a district title and make a run in the post-season. Only six starters return, including two on defense, for 2012.
4. Smithville (2011: 7-3, lost in 1st round of playoffs)
--The Tigers have high hopes after a seven win season and a playoff berth, with 16 starters returning in 2012, including nine on defense.
5. Lampasas (2011: 10-2, lost in 2nd round of playoffs)
--Coach Joey McQueen guided the Badgers to a 10-win season and the program's first playoff win in 13 years before leaving the Badgers to new coach Jimmy Randolph. Lampasas' defense, which returns seven starters, will be key in reminding everyone that there's more to District 8-3A than Liberty Hill and Brownwood.
1. Lexington (2011: 11-3, Class 2A DII State Semi-Finalist)
--The Eagles are ready to shed the label of best little program in Central Texas without a state title. 2012 seems to give Lexington as good of a chance as 2010 and 2011 did, when they made it to the state championship and state semi-finals, respectively. Title hopes may ride on the play of QB Kogan Garrett, who threw for 3050 yards passing, ran for over a thousand yards, and accounted for 48 TDs last season. Look for a moumental match-up in the region semifinals against defending state champ Refugio, who knocked the Eagles out of the playoffs last year.
2. Lago Vista (2011: 10-2, Class 2A DI Regional Semi-Finalist)
--The Vikings had the usual in 2011: 10 wins and going three-rounds deep in the playoffs. Six all-district players return on defense, good news for Lago Vista. The not-so-good? Now being in a district with the state's pre-season top-ranked team: Cameron.
3. Blanco (2011: 8-6, Class 2A DI Regional Finalist)
--The Panthers made the most of their playoff appearance as a 5-5 team in 2011, winning three tough playoff games by a total of five points. Blanco has 11 starters returning, but things will be tough in district play, now in a league with state-ranked teams Lexington and Rogers.
4. Mason (2011: 15-0, Class 1A Division I State Champions)
--The Punchers had anything but a, well, Punchers, chance at winning a state title in 2011. With record-setting, all-everything running back David Mora, a senior-laden Mason team took advantage of "their time" and surprised few by going unbeaten and winning the school's first state title. RB Rio Schmidt, who almost had a 1,000 yard season as Mason's second running option in 2011, will fill the shoes of Mora. Big shoes made bigger by the fact that he's only one of six starters returning in 2012.
5.Thorndale (2011: 7-3, Did not make playoffs)
--The Bulldogs move down to 1A should benefit a team that somehow managed to win seven games in 2011 but missed the playoffs. Returning six starters on defense should help Thorndale back to the post-season.

STEM degrees, diplomas handed out in the areas of science, technology, engineering and math, traditionally account for the highest paying jobs, earning individuals approximately $35,000 more annually than other occupations. According to George Washington University's Face the Facts initiative, professionals with STEM degrees earned an average of $77,880 a year in 2009, but only 10.7 percent of diplomas handed out during that year were for STEM courses. That translates to approximately only one in every 10 diplomas issued in the higher paying occupations of math, science, technology or engineering.
Of those earning the high-paying STEM degrees, Asians had far more when compared to their representation in the workforce than any other demographic. The group accounted for only 5 percent of the nation's workforce in 2009, but held 14 percent of STEM jobs.
Hispanics, who accounted for 14 percent of the workforce, occupied approximately 6 percent of STEM jobs, and non-Hispanic whites held 68 percent of the workforce and 72 percent of STEM jobs.
Not all workers with STEM degrees went on to occupy STEM jobs however, states Face the Facts. Of the workers with a STEM degree who also held a STEM job, Asians topped the list at 49 percent compared to 34 percent of non-Hispanic whites, 29 percent of African-Americans, and 28 percent of Hispanics.
Not only are STEM jobs better paid than most other jobs in the country, there are currently more than 3 million unfilled STEM jobs in the United States due to a lack of qualified applicants. With Hispanics as one of the fastest growing minorities in the country, unfilled STEM jobs translate into high opportunities for many aspiring students.
The top STEM careers, according to STEMCAREER, include computer support, database administration, systems analysis, computer networking, CS/IS research, software engineering, physical sciences, traditional engineering, mathematics and life sciences.
For Hispanics interested in pursuing a STEM degree, a number of scholarships exist, including the Merck Ciencia Hispanic Scholars Program, NACME Scholars Program, the Advancing Hispanic Excellence in Technology, Engineering, Math and Science (AHETEMS), and the Aetna Nursing Scholarship.

I feel like this is trying to be like Clinique's Happy and falls short. It was too sporty for me. Citrus is one of my favorite scents and I this left much to be desired.
Funny, on me it smells just like my Tommy Freedom for Her. I was so relieved that I found a "new" source of a favorite scent,that will not break the bank. People with latex sensitivities are also sensitive to bananas--perhaps that is the problem some people are having with this formulation? It is heavy, then scent is overpowering as a spray, but the roll-on is much easier to contain. If you loved Freedom, try a roll on of Velocity.
absolutely horrible....the banana sweetness conquers your nose then the following citrus attacks every part of olfactory senses.. very offensive little fragrance. not even good as a room spray.
I remember when Mary Kay introduced this in the early 2000's, it was supposed to be a younger scent marketed at the 16 to 18 age group. More teeny bopper than young sophisticated woman.
I can't say I like the scent at all, it's HORRIBLE. It's one of those scents that a lot of ladies wear that are old enough to know better, yet are determined to wear it anyway. The smell is sharp, cloying, and lasts too long.
Supposedly it has notes of madarin and bannana in it, but all I detect is this sweet, cloying, sharpness that gives me a migraine.
I've had a bottle of this since 8 years or so. When I was younger, around 12 or 13, I used to adore this and wear it whenever I had the chance ( not too much 'cause I didn't want to run out of it). Now I'm 18, and this fragrance is a little too fruity and syrupy for me and I kind of hate bananas. I mean, I still like how it smells, but I wouldn't go around wearing this stuff! Anyway, I'll keep this one around and revisit it just in case I feel like wearing something excessively fruity and banana-like.
Here is my history with this perfume. I bought it blind off of Ebay. I was so put off by the strong overly ripened banana note that I did not even want to try it on. Between baking banana bread for school bakes sales every other week (so it seemed) and spooning mashed bananas into the moving target in the high chair, I had enough with bananas already!
I tried to pass it off to friends but nobody wants a perfume that comes with a warning. So up on the shelf it went.
My baby girl is long out of the high chair. The world around is the target now. How she loves to explore! And she is very good at moving things and climbing on them to get what is out of reach.
How appropriate that my little monkey found the bananas. She sprayed it before I could take it away.
Really, not so bad as an air freshener at least. There was a bamboo note that emerged that was ...interesting. Hmmm. Ok,maybe it deserves a second chance, I thought.
So I am wearing it now and...I don't hate it. With summer approaching so many tropical scents are coming out. This one is tropical without being cliche. No coconuts,pineapple or margaritas with little umbrellas here. Banana with fresh cut bamboo. Unusual. I don't bake during the hot summer and everyone is on solids. I may learn to really like it.
I wore this in college. It is a clean citrus, an everyday scent for a younger crowd. I agree that there's nothing particularly special to it, but just being clean and non-offensive.
I bought this again after 10 years from the first time I had it as a gift. I loved it then and love it now. It is fresh, citrusy, floral, happy and gives me energy. I would stay with the nose in the bottle all day if I could! I don't smell any banana, just freshness and flowers.
LOVE this scent. It's light, sporty, energizing, and citrusy. Definitely a day scent, because the smell is remiscent of a walk on a brisk, Spring day while eating a tangerine. The clementine notes are dominant throughout the life of the perfume, and the scent in general is fruity and young.
The only downside is the lasting power: I wish it lasted longer. This is a common problem with Mary Kay and Avon scents: they're cheaper pricewise but also cheaply made. Expect to spritz on Velocity a few times throughout the day.
It's definitely a more young, vibrant day scent made for an active woman, similar to Adidas sport-type perfumes.
mild like banana orange smoothie very close to skin smoother than most citrus to me light and fresh soft and a bit sweet very wearable
Nice alternative for people who don't like floral scents. It used to be my favorite scent when I was in middle school, but even now I still use it sometimes. It's very refreshing/energizing.
This one's a little bit less sweet than Clinique's Happy, but in this case, it's a good thing. If I want a citrus scent that's not quite so peppy, I wear this one, it's a bit more subtle.
Fresh and fun fragrance. It doesnt last long but its a cheap dupe of Clinique happy.
I had used this in like 9th grade a friend had it for after gym class and I loved it, so I finally this week got my very own bottle, and it is every bit as fantastic as I remember! It is very citrus fruity, clean and rich smelling! it is very springy type, for daytime!! In my opinion this is a definite must have for spring/summer! and for the price, you cannot beat it!!
Such a rubbish, who dares to to compare it to Clinique Happy?
I love this fragrance. It's light, fun and flirty. As every fragrance I love, I stocked up just "in case".
I Really Love This Fragrance I Have 5 Bottles of It! i Always get A Compliment on it!
Sharp, youthful, sporty, sweet, bananay, unique, and I daresay, elegant! When I first got this, I didn't even bother using it because it smelled so sharp and green in the bottle. However, upon recently giving it another chance, I noticed that it works very well with my skin. Sharpness gone, comes an exotic almost floral fruity scent that gently stays close to the skin, I cannot stop sniffing my wrist!

ARDMORE, OK-- While the Fourth of July may be exciting for millions across the
U.S. It can be a stressful time for our pets, and experts want you to remember a
few helpful tips to keep your pets safe.
Fireworks, barbeque, and lots of sun it's that time of year when people
across Texoma and the nation will be enjoying Independence Day.
One local animal expert said it's the most dangerous holiday for pets.
"The most common phone call we're going to get is a few days later the
dogs are having severe gastro issues and that's from eating fatty foods they
get from the trash or from licking under the grill," said Dr. Cade Wilson, a Veterinarian for the Carter County Animal Hospital.
Dr. Cade Wilson said although it may be tempting to give your animals food from
the cookout, he said it can be very dangerous.
"Worry about choking hazards with hot dogs, those are things people don't
generally think about on the Fourth of July," said Dr. Wilson.
"We have four dogs, seven cats, a horse and a donkey."
Fiona McAlister is no stranger to pets; she has several of her own and
volunteers daily at the Animal Shelter in Ardmore.
"We're fairly aware of especially not giving our dogs bones, and it's very
tempting when you have that great barbeque and you just want to give those to
your dog's, but we try to avoid that," said McAlister.
With Fourth of July festivities comes the dangers of fireworks, something Dr.
Wilson said can also be very dangerous. It's something McAlister has planned
for in advance.
"We like to make sure they're enclosed, we have fenced off yards and we
make sure those gates are secure and that those fences are high enough our dogs
can't jump over them if they get nervous, and we'll put some of our animals
inside the house," said McAlister.
Experts said to also make sure to keep your animals in shaded areas with plenty
of water during these hot summer days.
He said the nearest 24 hour animal hospital to Carter County is in Denton
Texas and Norman.

At the end of the NFL Draft, the work isn't done. Teams immediately started signing undrafted free agents.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers signed well more than a handful of undrafted rookie free agents, like most NFL teams after the NFL Draft. The Bucs also signed some rookie try-out free agents, such as former LSU quarterback Jordan Jefferson according to the Tampa Bay Times.
The former LSU quarterback who was 24-8 as a starter for the national runner-up Tigers, was signed to a contract today by the Bucs after a strong performance in the weekend's rookie minicamp.
Jefferson was the starting quarterback for most of the season for the 2011 LSU Tigers, including starting in the NCAA Championship game against Alabama, where the LSU offense infamously didn't cross the 50-yard line.
"He's an athletic guy who has a strong arm," Buccaneers new head coach Greg Schiano told reporters. "We wanted to gauge his development as a quarterback. I thought he made consistent improvement all weekend. There's a lot of upside there, so I think we would like to have a chance to work with him."
Currently the Buccaneers have Josh Freeman and Dan Orlovsky under contract as their first and second string quarterbacks, but will have Brett Ratliff and fellow rookie Zach Collaros compete for the third quarterback position.

James finished his career with the Beavers as the school's all-time leader with 6,377 all-purpose yards.

The Carolina Panthers picked up some good players in the 2012 NFL Draft and have added a total of 12 undrafted rookie free agents to their roster. The biggest name of the bunch is Tennessee running back Tauren Poole, who was a touted back from the Volunteers, but failed to follow up his 1,000-yard season his final year in college. The other big get would be BYU offensive tackle Matt Reynolds, who most scouts seemed to have being drafted in the fourth or fifth round.
Here is the complete list of the 12 undrafted free agents the Panthers picked up:
Matt Reynolds, OT, BYU
Ryan Van Bergen, DE, Michigan
Tauren Poole, RB, Tennessee

The Philadelphia Eagles added 13 undrafted free agents to their squad after the NFL Draft ended, signing players from a variety of positions and college football backgrounds. Their group of rookie free agents is highlighted by Chris Polk, the productive Washington Huskies running back that was pegged as a potential Day 2 pick before the draft.

The Jacksonville Jaguars' undrafted free agents are in, and their list of signings includes a number of potential pass catchers. One of the most interesting players in the group is Matt Veldman, a big 6'7", 256 pound tight end who ran a 4.72 second 40-yard dash at his pro day.

The Green Bay Packers have signed 14 players as undrafted rookie free agents following the 2012 NFL Draft this past weekend. Several big names have already come aboard. Notably, USC running back Marc Tyler will get another shot to make good on his considerable physical talents. The 5'11, 230-pound prospect picked up 568 yards on 122 carries last season. His production slowed to a trickle as the season wore on, with a shoulder injury playing a major part. Still, Tyler's size could make him a reliable goal-line option.
South Dakota State wide receiver Dale Moss could also contribute somewhere down the road. He played just one season with the Jackrabbits after coming over from the basketball team. Though he's raw, his 6'3, 213-pound frame and 41.5" vertical could make him a valuable red zone threat.
Check out a full list of the Packers' undrafted free agent signings below:
Dale Moss, WR, South Dakota State
Marc Tyler, RB, USC
Dezman Moses, OLB, Tulane
Don Barclay, OT, West Virginia
Jaymar Latchison, OLB, New Mexico
Duane Bennett, RB, Minnesota
Tommie Draheim, OT, San Diego State
Jaymes Brooks, G/C, Virginia Tech
Eric Lair, TE, Minnesota
Nicholas Cooper, RB, Winston-Salem State
Cameron Ford, TE, Wake Forest

Darius Reynolds, WR, Iowa State
Sean Richardson, S, Vanderbilt

The Denver Broncos signed 13 undrafted rookie free agents after the conclusion of the 2012 NFL Draft this past weekend. The offensive line and the defensive front were the biggest points of emphasis. Denver picked up two offensive guards, one tackle, one tight end, three linebackers and a defensive end among their haul.
Safety Duke Ihenacho out of San Jose State may be the most pro-ready of the group. The 6'0", 213-pound prospect was projected as a potential 4th round pick by NFL.com, and was rated as the eighth-best strong safety entering the draft by Mocking The Draft.
Check out a full list of the Broncos undrafted free agent signings below:

The Dallas Cowboys brought in an impressive haul of undrafted rookie free agent signings following the 2012 NFL Draft this past weekend. Overall, 21 prospects signed on with the team after the Cowboys made their seven selections, with several more players expected to attend tryouts. Dallas added six offensive linemen in hopes that one or two might pan out and help address a major area of need.
Memphis offensive guard Ronald Leary has earned the most attention. Jerry Jones said that the team nearly selected him late in the draft, but held off when they felt he could be signed later. There is talk that Leary is being considered like the Cowboys' "eighth pick" of the draft. Jones was effusive with his praise.
"The coaches think he might be the readiest to come in here and help us more than any offensive lineman. He has an opportunity to come in and contribute immediately," Jones said. "We're proud of that. We do have him. We really debated for the last two weeks as to how to put in action, or how to make a decision, relative to a risk issue that is subjective to some degree. ... It's a longer-term thing. We're ready to take that risk. He's a good player, someone that you guys recognize as someone that can help the offensive line."
You can check out all of the Cowboys' undrafted signings below:
Jeff Adams, OT, Columbia
Ron Leary, OG, Memphis
Levy Adcock, OT, Oklahoma State
Taylor Dever, OT, Notre Dame
Harland Gunn, OG, Miami
Tyrone Novikoff, OT, Idaho
Tim Benford, WR, Tennessee Tech

Lists of undrafted rookie free agent signings continue to roll in following the completion of the 2012 NFL Draft this past weekend. The Chicago Bears signed 11 players after picking up six prospects during the allotted seven rounds of the draft. Among the names, offensive tackle James Brown should stand out the most. The 6'3, 307-pound prospect out of Troy graded out as high as the 2nd round. While some believe he projects better at guard, Brown earned high praise for his athleticism and footwork. Here's what Mocking The Draft had to say:
Strengths: Nice athleticism and a solid frame alone will get Brown a look in the NFL. He has light feet and moves around to block against speed edge rushers. Knows how to read angles and drive defenders out of the play.
Weaknesses: Is behind developmentally in the technical areas of his game. Plays with his arms low and doesn't get good leverage. Needs to get stronger.
You can check out all of the Bears' free agent signings below:
Alvester Alexander, RB Wyoming
James Brown, OT, Troy
Ronnie Cameron, DT, Old Dominion
Adrien Cole, LB, Louisiana Tech
Trevor Coston, S, Maine
Terrium Crump, WR, Western Illinois
Brittan Golden, WR, West Texas A&M
A.J. Greene, OT, Auburn
Jeremy Jones, S, Wayne State
Chris Summers, WR, Liberty
Ronnie Thornton, LB, Southern Miss

Oregon Ducks QB Darron Thomas went undrafted in the 2012 NFL Draft, which wasn't a very big surprise. But what is a bit of a surprise is that he didn't receive a contract offer as an undrafted free agent. He's been invited to the Pittsburgh Steelers and Arizona Cardinals rookie minicamp, according to Aaron Wilson of Scout.com, but only on a tryout basis.
Thomas was electric at times while at Oregon. But, as everyone knows, the Oregon offense isn't exactly the same as an NFL offense. It's possible Thomas never sees an NFL roster.
Most teams are holding rookie minicamps in over the next several weeks. Those will include the drafted players, undrafted free agents and other players, like Thomas, who were on an invite basis.

Vontaze Burfict was known during his years at Arizona State as a relentless player who had trouble containing his play to the moments between the whistles. He'll get his first shot at an NFL career with a team that has long been the butt of jokes because of its players' inability to get all of their kicks on the field, having reportedly signed a deal with the Cincinnati Bengals as an undrafted free agent.
Burfict was a five-star recruit, and appeared to be making good on that promise in his sophomore season with the Sun Devils, making 90 tackles and being named a first-team All-American by the Sporting News. But Burfict's production dropped in his junior season -- he had just 69 total tackles -- and his comportment became his dominant storyline in the run-up to the NFL Draft, leading every team to pass on a player who seemed like a first-round talent at this time last year.
Here's the current list of undrafted free agent signings by the Bengals, via Mocking the Draft:
Ben Bojicic, OL, Bowling Green
Derrius Brooks, CB, Western Kentucky
Vontaze Burfict, LB, Arizona State
Tony Dye, S, UCLA
Tyler Hanson, QB, Colorado
Justin Hilton, WR, Indiana State
Brandon Joiner, DE, Arkansas State
Emmanuel Lamur, DB, Kansas State
Julian Miller, DE, West Virginia
Kashif Moore, WR, Connecticut
Taveon Rogers, WR, New Mexico State
Rodney Stewart, RB, Colorado
Landon Walker, OL, Clemson

The Baltimore Ravens have had recent success with one running back from a school off the beaten path. While suggesting that Western Kentucky's Bobby Rainey will be nearly as good as Ray Rice seems premature at best, Rainey's production as a collegian makes him one of the most interesting undrafted free agents the Ravens picked up in the wake of the 2012 NFL Draft.
Rainey was a workhorse at Western Kentucky, doing almost all of the heavy lifting on offense for the Hilltoppers from 2009 to 2011. In total, he racked up a staggering 6,906 total yards and ran for 4,542, topping the 1,600-yard plateau in 2010 and 2011.
That production was partly a factor of heavy use -- Rainey had 895 career carries -- and came against lesser competition than most. But similar things could have been said about Rice.
On the other end of the production vs. talent argument, the Ravens also brought in Florida teammates John Brantley and Deonte Thompson. And in great name news, Baltimore picked up Kent State defensive tackle Ishmaa'ily Kitchen.
Here's the current list of undrafted free agent signings by the Ravens, via Mocking the Draft:
Chris Anzevino, C, Kent State
John Brantley, QB, Florida
Charles Brown, CB, North Carolina
James Carmon, OT, Mississippi State
Jack Cornell, OL, Illinois
Chad Diehl, FB, Clemson
Dorian Graham, WR, Syracuse
Elliott Henigan, DT, UAB
Ishmaa'ily Kitchen, DT, Kent State
Alfred McCullough, OL, Alabama
Nick Provo, TE, Syracuse
Bobby Rainey, RB, Western Kentucky

Jacory Harris was one of South Florida's favorite sons when he chose to stay home with much of the core of his national championship Miami Northwestern High and play for Randy Shannon's Miami Hurricanes. Four years later, after an unremarkable college career that never featured more than nine wins or a finish higher than second in the ACC, Harris could begin his professional career in Miami, having reportedly been invited to rookie camp with both the Miami Dolphins and Arizona Cardinals.
Harris, who struggled with his accuracy in his first three seasons at Miami, settled down in his senior year, completing 65 percent of his passes for 2,486 yards and 20 touchdowns against just nine interceptions and helping the 'Canes knock off ranked Ohio State and Georgia Tech teams. But Miami struggled with its consistency, and turned down a bowl bid after going 6-6 in hopes of appeasing the NCAA in an ongoing investigation into rogue booster Nevin Shapiro providing illicit benefits to Miami players.
Harris could join a Dolphins roster with many quarterbacks — incumbent starter Matt Moore, first-rounder Ryan Tannehill, old hand David Garrard — and no clear-cut favorite to win the job. Or he could head to Arizona, where the quarterback situation features Kevin Kolb, John Skelton, and even less certainty.
A previous version of this post reported that Harris had been signed by the Dolphins as an undrafted free agent. That is not true, and the author deeply regrets the error.

The Washington Redskins started the draft with the cornerstone addition of Robert Griffin III, their quarterback of the future. Mike Shanahan and Bruce Allen continued to fill out the roster throughout the weekend, and signed several undrafted free agents after the draft concluded on Saturday night. Among those free agents are Virginia cornerback Chase Minnifield and Wisconsin offensive tackle Josh Oglesby.
Minnifield, the son of former Browns standout Frank Minnifield, received a draft grade from almost every scout but dropped because of injury concerns. It was surprising to not hear his name called, but the Redskins pounced and signed him shortly after the draft ended. Here's what Mocking the Draft's scouting report has to say about Minnifield:
Excels in zone situations where he can use his instincts and quickness. Shows a good amount of range when playing off his man. Plays with a lot of hustle against the run. Takes good routes to the ball and has a lot of heart to make plays.
Along with Minnifield, the Redskins signed monstrous Wisconsin tackle Josh Oglesby. The former Badger was considered one of the top offensive line prospects in the country coming out of high school and, despite five knee surgeries, he had a productive career in Madison playing for one of the best offensive line units in the country. At 6'7" and 338 pounds, he certainly has the size to make an NFL roster. Scouts question his athleticism, but many projected he would go in the later rounds and likely have a career as a backup tackle. He's scheduled to be in Washington on Sunday to have his physical. It's expected that his knees will pass the team doctors' examination, and he will be cleared to play.
Here's the current list of undrafted free agent signings by the Redskins, via Mocking the Draft:
Kevin Bolden, WR, Southern Miss

The world champion New York Giants did not have many needs entering the 2012 NFL Draft, but they added some depth to the backfield in Round 1, selecting running back David Wilson. They added six more prospects over the next two days and continued signing undrafted free agents on Saturday evening.
One potential undrafted signing who has a shot to make the team is defensive back Janzen Jackson. The McNeese State safety had major college talent, starting at Tennessee as a true freshman and sophomore. He was released from the team just before the 2011 season and immediately joined McNeese State. He's an elite athlete who can certainly make an impression on Tom Coughlin's coaching staff.
Here's a current list of the Giants' other undrafted free agent signings, via Big Blue View:
S Janzen Jackson, McNeese State
DE Matt Broha, Louisiana Tech
WR David Douglas, Arizona
DE Adwale Ojomo, Miami
WR Julian Talley, UMass
S Jojo Nicolas, Miami
WR Damian Davis, Mary Hardin-Baylor
OL Stephen Goodwin, Nebraska-Kearney
G De'Angelo McCray, Memphis
RB Joe Martinek, Rutgers

The Green Bay Packers have signed Southern Cal running back Marc Tyler, according to reports. Tyler was one of the top recruits in the country coming out of high school, but his career at USC was plagued by injury and he never fulfilled his potential in a constantly crowded backfield. He also got in trouble off-the-field on a number of occasions, which affected his draft stock. Tyler, however, still has plenty of talent and chose the Packers over offers from the Broncos, Raiders and Steelers. Via Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:
"I feel it's a great team with great young players and a great foundation," Tyler said Saturday night. "It's just a great tradition there. The fans there love their team. They're supportive. I felt that gave me the best opportunity to come in and make the team and play."
Tyler can certainly make the team and play a role on special teams. Along with the USC running back, the Packers signed seven other undrafted free agents. The complete list, via Mocking The Draft:
Nicholas Coope, RB, Winston Salem State
Randy Colling, NT, Gannon
Dezman Moses, DE, Tulane
Dale Moss, WR, South Dakota State
Sean Richardson, S, Vanderbilt
Marcus Rivers, WR, Buffalo
Dion Turner, DB, Southern Utah

The Cleveland Browns began their 2012 NFL Draft by adding Trent Richardson and Brandon Weeden and they finished the weekend by signing several undrafted free agents, including two in-state Buckeyes, according to reports. Ohio State's J.B. Shugarts and Andrew Sweat both signed with the Browns, according to the Plain Dealer. Shugarts was a highly-recruited tackle out of Texas and played all four years in Columbus. Sweat, on the other hand, worked his way into an impact linebacker in the Big Ten, and the Steelers fan, who's put off law school, immediately changed his AFC North allegiance.
Along with the two Ohio State players, the Browns also signed two major college contributors from the state of Florida. Florida State's Bert Reed is a speedy wideout and return specialist, who will have to compete with fourth-round pick Travis Benjamin out of Miami for a special teams spot. William Green, a pass-rushing defensive end for the Gators, also reportedly signed a deal with the Browns.
Here's a complete list of the Browns undrafted free agent signings, via Mocking The Draft:
Mike Allen, CB, James Madison
Jake Anderson, OL, Akron
Matt Cleveland, OT, Idaho
Josh Cooper, WR, Oklahoma State

The usually talent-soaked Florida Gators had just two players drafted in 2012, Jaye Howard and Chris Rainey, and both went in the 2012 NFL Draft's final day. Now, Deonte Thompson and William Green have joined quarterback John Brantley in signing undrafted free agent deals.
Thompson, who never lived up to his promise as a go-to receiver with Florida, will follow Brantley to Baltimore, according to The Gainesville Sun's Robbie Andreu. The Ravens have a history with Florida wide receivers, having featured Travis Taylor for a few years in the early 2000s, and Thompson will join a receiving corps that has very little definition beyond Anquan Boldin and Torrey Smith.
Green, meanwhile, tweeted that he had joined the Cleveland Browns. A serviceable, rarely showy defensive end, Green will have to rely on his work ethic in battling for a roster spot in Cleveland. If he survives the cuts, he'll join his former Gators teammate Joe Haden on the Browns' roster.

Washington's Chris Polk has been one of college football's most productive players in the last few years, featuring as the Huskies' lead runner and punishing opponents with his strength and speed. But injury concerns made him an unlikely 2012 NFL Draft pick, and after being passed up 253 times, Polk has signed with the Philadelphia Eagles as an undrafted free agent, according to a report.
Polk's injury concerns were largely about a shoulder injury that he has played with throughout his career, as well as a knee injury prior to the 2011 season that required arthroscopic surgery. But he was named to the All-Pac-12 first team in 2011 despite the injury, and the running back holds Washington's school record for most 100-yard games with 21.
Polk joins an Eagles backfield which features LeSean McCoy, and he may also have to scrap with seventh-round pick Bryce Brown of Kansas State for a roster spot.

Houston QB Case Keenum is staying in Houston. According to a report, Keenum has agreed to an undrafted free agent deal with the Houston Texans. UFAs often don't make the final 53-man roster, but Keenum could be a unique case. He's only the NCAA's leader in passing yards, touchdowns and completions.
The Texans have two quarterbacks in place -- Matt Schaub and T.J. Yates. Keenum isn't beating them out for a job. But, as the Texans learned last year with Schaub, you need quality backups, and I think that's who Keenum can be in the NFL -- a decent backup.
Keenum was expected by some to be a late round draft pick, at best, so that he went undrafted isn't a total surprise.

Once thought of as first round pick, Arizona State LB Vontaze Burfict went undrafted in the 2012 NFL Draft. But he's going to be in the NFL after all after agreeing to an undrafted free agent deal with the Cincinnati Bengals, according to a report. SB Nation's Bengals blog, Cincy Jungle, sums it up:
At one point viewed as a first-round prospect just a few months ago, Burfict, who Mike Mayock once called an "undraftable kid", has dealt with a series of off-the-field issues, but strung together horrible performances at the NFL Combine and Arizona State's Pro Day.
He was viewed as a first round pick even early this year, but the wheels came off this season. He's had off-the-field issues in addition to on-the-field penalty problems.

Former Stanford wide receiver Chris Owusu went undrafted largely due to health concerns, but he has agreed to a deal with the San Francisco 49ers, according to a report by Matt Miller. He will join his former coach at Stanford, John Harbaugh, and has a good shot at making the roster and adding depth to San Francisco's receiving corps.
Owusu was one of the fastest wide receivers in the draft, running a 4.31 and 4.36 at the scouting combine in February. But recurring concussions at Stanford created concerns during the draft process. Along with Coby Fleener, he was one of the top targets for No. 1 overall pick Andrew Luck. His final season, however, ended early in November when he took another huge hit that resulted in a concussion. The local signing and reunion with Harbaugh makes for a nice story in the Bay Area.

Cliff Harris was one of college football's enigmas in 2011: blessed with first-round talent and the confidence to go with it, Harris missed much of his final season with the Oregon Ducks while suspended after multiple legal incidents, and saw his 2012 NFL Draft stock plummet as a result. He'll have a chance to catch on in the NFL after signing a deal as an undrafted free agent with the Philadelphia Eagles, according to Neil Stratton.
Harris is the sort of playmaker with ball skills, when on, who could develop into an Asante Samuel-like player with Philadelphia. And if he sticks in camp, Harris might yet replace Samuel, who the Eagles shipped to the Atlanta Falcons earlier this week.
Harris was also an electric return man for the Ducks prior to 2011, and gives the Eagles, who have DeSean Jackson and Jeremy Maclin, surplus speed at the position.

Former Boise State QB Kellen Moore went undrafted in the 2012 NFL Draft and has now reached an agreement on an undrafted free agent deal with the Detroit Lions, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Moore is the winningest quarterback in FBS history.
Moore enters Detroit solely as a backup to Matthew Stafford, who is clearly the future of the franchise. Stafford does have a history of injury so if Moore can make the roster, and perhaps even the No. 2 job, he's only a snap away from playing. Of course, that's a lot more difficult than just agreeing to a contract, which is all he's done now.
SB Nation's Mocking The Draft's scouting report:
Strengths: An intelligent, experienced field general of a quarterback. Moore does an excellent job of reading the defense before the snap. A winner. Moore has arguably the best anticipation skills in this year's draft. Expertly knows exactly where and when his wide receiver is supposed to be to complete the pass. Would be a first-round pick if he weren't so physically limited. Will be a great backup.
Weaknesses: Moore's arm strength is average to poor and will have a hard time making a lot of NFL throws. Doesn't get a lot of zip on his passes and will struggle putting the ball in a tight window. Slight frame.

Florida's John Brantley was one of the nation's most coveted recruits in the class of 2007. But his career with the Gators did not feature many highlights, and he was not selected in the 2012 NFL Draft, instead signing a contract as an undrafted free agent with the Baltimore Ravens, according to The Gainesville Sun's Robbie Andreu.
SB Nation's Florida blog, Alligator Army, explains Brantley's star-crossed career:
He came to Florida as a five-star recruit with all the promise in the world, and served as Tim Tebow's understudy, beating out eventual Heisman Trophy winner Cam Newton for that role. But injuries and a scheme that he didn't fit hamstringing him as a junior in 2010 and injuries and a team bereft of talent sideswiped his 2011, leaving Brantley with only the 2012 Gator Bowl as his signature win.
Brantley will likely compete for a spot on the Ravens' roster with Tyrod Taylor and Curtis Painter.

Two Medals, Strong Emotions For Miller, Weibrecht
This medal mattered to Bode Miller.
Not so much because, at 36, his bronze in Sunday's super-G - behind winner Kjetil Jansrud and surprise runner-up Andrew Weibrecht - makes Miller the oldest Alpine medalist in Olympic history. Or even because he now owns six medals in all, the second-highest total for a male ski racer and tied for second among U.S. Winter Olympians in any sport.
The guy who for years and years insisted results don't mean much to him declared he actually did care about this one. The last year has been a difficult one for Miller: the death of his younger brother, Chelone, in April 2013; the court fight over custody of his infant son; the work it took to come back from left knee surgery and return to the Alpine apex.
"It's almost therapeutic for me to be in these situations, where I really had to test myself, so I was happy to have it be on the right side of the hundredths," said Miller, who grew up in New Hampshire and is now based in California. "Some days ... medals don't matter, and today was one of the ones where it does."
He wiped away tears in the finish area after someone mentioned Chelone, a charismatic snowboarder who was 29 and hoping to make the U.S. team in Sochi when he died of what was believed to be a seizure.
"Everything felt pretty raw and pretty connected," Miller said, "so it was a lot for me."
Weibrecht couldn't help but be moved by his own journey, calling Sunday "probably the most emotional day of ski racing that I've ever had."
It also was an important day for the U.S. ski team. The Americans had managed to collect only one of the 15 medals awarded through the first five Alpine events of the Sochi Olympics before Weibrecht and Miller tripled their nation's total in one fell swoop.
Through 28 starters Sunday, Miller and Jan Hudec of Canada were tied for second place, about a half-second slower than Jansrud's run of 1 minute, 18.14 seconds. But then came the 29th racer, Weibrecht, who had come out of nowhere to win the super-G bronze behind Miller's silver at the 2010 Olympics but since then has dealt with injury after injury, including to both shoulders and both ankles.
He's had four operations in the last four years, lost funding from the U.S. ski team at one point, and was not a lock to make the Sochi Olympic roster.
"I've had to evaluate whether this is really what I want to do. Even," Weibrecht said, then paused before adding, "as recently as yesterday."
He laughed at his own punch line.
"All kidding aside," Weibrecht said later, rubbing his left temple, "it's been a pretty difficult four years. It's kind of one of those things that you can only be beat down so many times before you start to really look at what you're doing. I didn't know how many more beatdowns I could take."
Charging with abandon - his nickname is "War Horse" - Weibrecht dominated the top of the course, then held on to nudge into second, 0.30 seconds behind Jansrud and 0.23 ahead of both Miller and Hudec, whose bronze is Canada's first Alpine medal in 20 years.
That Weibrecht pulled it off did not shock U.S. coaches or teammate Ted Ligety, the super-G world champion who was 14th. Weibrecht credited a recent day of giant slalom practice in Austria alongside Ligety with helping him carry speed.
Being quick has never been a problem for the 5-foot-6 (1.68-meter) Weibrecht, who's 28. Mid-race errors usually set him back.
Just last week, Ligety called Weibrecht "the fastest skier in the world for 20 seconds in every single event."
How stunning was this silver? In 95 World Cup races, Weibrecht never finished better than 10th. Yet he owns two Olympic medals.
"Hits the bull's-eye once every four years," is how Italy's Peter Fill put it.
Weibrecht's 2010 bronze hangs in the lobby of his parents' hotel in Lake Placid, host of the 1932 and 1980 Winter Games. In the wee hours of Sunday - there's a 9-hour time difference between New York and Sochi - Weibrecht's parents followed along at home.
"He had some really bad experiences," Weibrecht's father, Ed, said in a telephone interview. "It's been a struggle for him to come back, but he never wavered from that goal."
Understanding where Miller's goals lie can be tricky.
He'll talk about the purity of skiing. He'll say tangible rewards aren't significant, that "skiing 80 percent would get me more medals, but it just doesn't feel right."
Here, though, he was bothered by finishing eighth in the downhill, sixth in the super-combined. In the super-G, one error coming out of the final jump cost Miller what he estimated to be about a half-second. Still, he appreciated the accomplishment.
"After the year we've had, and the fact we just keep pushing through it," said Miller's wife, Morgan, "it just shows how resilient Bode is."
Even if clearly in a reflective mood, Miller couldn't completely turn off his wry side when asked about trailing only the Alpine-record eight medals won by Norway's Kjetil Andre Aamodt, and the U.S.-record eight Winter Olympic medals won by speedskater Apolo Anton Ohno.
"It means," Miller said with a smile, that I'm old."
Jacobellis Falters Again In Women's Snowboardcross
Lindsey Jacobellis' tough luck in the Olympics continues.
The American snowboarder crashed while leading a semifinal race on Sunday, dashing her chances for gold once again.
The 28-year-old Jacobellis was in the lead and well on her way to reaching the finals when she lost her balance coming off a jump at the end of the course at Rosa Khutor Extreme Park. She flailed into a turn before sliding into the snow. She was unhurt but finished last.
Jacobellis, one of the most accomplished snowboardcross riders in the world, famously lost the gold medal in Turin in 2006 when she fell after trying a flashy grab while going over the final jump. She recovered for silver.
Four years ago in Vancouver, Jacobellis crashed during the semifinals and failed to advance.
