Former Iowa running back....

[RickyMcDJCLay]

So I was up for a promotion at work, I thought i had it locked. It was between me and one other candidate. The next day i found out I did not get it. I went over to see who they had hired for the position, and standing in front of me was former Iowa running back Jermelle Lewis. I got beat out by a Hawkeye at least. Good to see he's back in Iowa City.

Good job not letting on where you work. Nothing good can come from that.

Was he hurt?

Was he hurt?

No, he has not been seen on a moped yet

I thought he was playing semi-pro football in Ottumwa. Does anyone know what happened with that?

Maybe his season is already over? No idea why he would be back in IC. But since he is, Jermelle would definitely be a guy that could do some good with Jewel. Jermelle knows what that stuff is all about, and could give him a lot of good advice, I'm sure.

I believe it was Omaha where Lewis was playing. Ahmad Green is the starter. When I saw a few weeks ago they picked up Maurice Clarett (sp), I wondered if JL had moved on.

Their season ended this last Saturday

Ask him if he will sign my jersey. I met Jermelle after the 2002 season. GREAT guy!

It was Ottumwa.

A. Green? Really? Can someone explain why a ten year NFL veteran who was a four time pro-bowler would be doing that?

He's also the Packer all time leading rusher. Jeff Garcia is also on the same team as Clarrett and Green.

Sometimes you just cant let the game go.

Last night a saw an ad on TV with Jeff Garcia & the Omaha team in the "UFL". I left scratching my head going WTF!!

Ahman is abroke. Another case of an NFL player who gets millions while in and comes out with nothing.

Good luck on the Omaha practice squad!
