Since it's the offseason, let's play a game.

I will post a riddle and the first person to guess the answer correctly gets the next turn to post a riddle. If you do not want to go, say "PASS" and the next person to say "NEXT" will get the turn. Try to keep the answers to Aggie sports (specifically football), this includes players, coaches, and the like.

Ok, here we go, let's start this off easy:

I was recruited from high school
As laser armed passer
But my first game was against SMU, in a run first offense
I was regarded as a leader
Both on and off the field
I led "the drive" against tu
Yet I left riding the bench
I was drafted by a team
Who screams "how bout them cowboys?"

Who is Stephen McGee?

That is correct.

The answer to yours is Lester Hayes.

The middle of the line is where you'll find me
I have been a range of animals, including dolphins and bills
I played with a man with the same name as a wheel
Who am I?

(bonus if you can guess both people, but only looking for the one who "I" is reffering to)

Seth McKinney is who you are looking for... The second one I dont know... Pass

Very nice. The other was Mark Farris (only one letter away from Ferris)

next.

The linebacker corps is where I stood
with the strength of a "ram", and the name of a pickup
I served my country before serving Coach Fran
Who am I?

Mark Dodge.

When I played, I fought through Bulldogs.
When I didn't, I fought through tears.

J-Train

PASS

Next.

I could pass, run , and even catch.
I am a favorite of the 12th Man, especially on Thanksgiving night.
I played with the Oilers for a little while, and once threw a pass with my left hand instead of my right.

Bucky Richardson

Edit: PASS

I sit in the press box.
I have a very distinctive voice.
While I can't tell you what's happening on the field or who "that guy" is,
I can count the number of crickets on the people in front of me.

I was a Big DL
Many called me "Fat Daddy"
My name is also known to hate the British
and same name of a lager beverage
Who am I?

SAM ADAMS

You'll never get this as NOBODY knows these things about the player.

My dad was a coach.
My roomate caught more of my passes than anyone (dual meaning intended).
My roomate and I hunt and fish together.
My first name is a type of horse and a gun manufacturer.
My last name sometimes completes the phrase "He's the real ..."
I was carried off the field more times than the kicking tee.
I should have been a four-year Heisman winner.

FYI, Lester Hayes was not an Aggie cornerback; he was a safety at A&M. He converted in the NFL.

After my DWIs I'm on the run
