Former Cat starting for AZ Cardinals this Sunday

[GlobalCat]

Dennis Green is starting Larry Croom at running back this weekend. He was a former Wildcat who ended up transferring to UNLV where he finished his college career. I remember him playing somewhat, but never made a strong impression. He had a better career at UNLV which lead him to be picked up by the Cards as an undrafted free agent this year.



AT ARIZONA: Played in all 11 games for Wildcats in 2000, including starting vs. Utah, Ohio State and Stanford ... Finished with 257 yards on 64 carries ... Also caught eight passes for 78 yards and his first career touchdown ... Opened the Oregon game with a 58-yard TD catch from Ortege Jenkins ... Also returned four kickoffs for 61 yards ... Played in 10 games as a freshman in 1999 ... Gained 49 yards on 12 carries ... Also returned 10 kickoffs for 197 yards (19.7 YPR), including a season-long 28-yarder vs. UTEP ... H

The Cards reckon to be a virtual offensive juggernaut this weekend.

Croom and Navarre on the attack.

I'm sure the Lions are quaking in their boots.

I picked him up in my deep FFL. I had Emmitt, so I dropped him when I learned he was out for nearly a month. That's basically the rest of the season in FFL terms.

He'll sit on my bench, but it's felt good to pickup a former cat.

I love the way Larry Croom plays, but like some fans in Minnesota had to be wondering, has Dennis Green truly cashed in this season?
