  • Big 12 Conference Schools Raise Nine-Year NFL Draft Totals to 277 Alumni Through 2003
    Big 12 Conference Schools Raise Nine-Year NFL Draft Totals to 277 Alumni Through 2003 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Apr. 26, 2003 DALLAS—Big 12 Conference teams had 10 of the first 62 selections in the 35th annual NFL “common” draft (67th overall) Saturday and added a total of 13 for the opening day. The first-day tallies in the 2003 NFL draft brought the number Big 12 standouts taken from 1995-03 to 277. Over 90 Big 12 alumni signed free agent contracts after the 2000-02 drafts, and three of the first 13 standouts (six total in the first round) in the 2003 draft were Kansas State CB Terence Newman (fifth draftee), Oklahoma State DE Kevin Williams (ninth) Texas A&M DT Ty Warren (13th). Last year three Big 12 standouts were selected in the top eight choices (four of the initial 21), and the 2000 draft included three alumni from this conference in the first 20. Colorado, Nebraska and Florida State paced all schools nationally in the 1995-97 era with 21 NFL draft choices apiece. Eleven Big 12 schools also had at least one youngster chosen in the eight-round draft during 1998. Over the last six (1998-03) NFL postings, there were 73 Big 12 Conference selections among the Top 100. There were 217 Big 12 schools’ grid representatives on 2002 NFL opening day rosters from all 12 members after 297 standouts from league members in ’02 entered NFL training camps—both all-time highs for the league. Nebraska (35 alumni) was third among all Division I-A schools in 2002 opening day roster men in the highest professional football configuration while Texas A&M (30) was among the Top Six in total NFL alumni last autumn.

  • Nathaniel Withdraws from Basketball Team to Pursue Employment Opportunity
    UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA lEW§ Bierman Field Athletic Building 516 15th Avenue Southeast Minneapolis, i\ 5455 (612) 625-4090 Fax 625-0359 For Immediate Release Dec. 4, 1999 NATHANIEL WITHDRAWS FROM BASKETBALL TEAM TO PURSUE EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY Junior guard Kevin Nathaniel has decided to withdraw from the Golden Gopher basketball team and pursue an employment opportunity. Nathaniel has missed the first five games of the season with a foot injury. A starter in 22 games last season, Nathaniel came to Minnesota from the Air Force where he was a canine specialist and military police officer. The employment opportunity is at a school in Illinois that specializes in this field and will allow him work and finish his college education. "I have been wrestling with this decision for a couple of weeks," said Nathaniel. "It is a great opportunity to work in a field I enjoy and have experience in and it will pay for the rest of my educational costs. It was a tough decision because I'm really like Coach Monson and the new staff and I think things are headed in the right direction. I will always remember the great experiences I had as a member of the team. The Minnesota fans are the greatest and I will really miss my teammates. In my heart I will always be a Golden Gopher." Nathaniel averaged 4.0 points, 3.1 rebounds and 2.3 assists last seasons and was an Academic All-Big Ten selection. He posted a 4.0 GPA last spring and was named aU of M scholar athlete.
