" Mike Flynt, 59, said he's been told he's made the football roster at Division III Sul Ross State,
37 years after he was thrown out of the Texas school for disciplinary reasons.

His position is still being determined, but he used to play linebacker.

It is believed he will become the oldest player in history since the

NCAA and NAIA research hasn't uncovered any 50 year old players."

He is a Grandfather. :grins:

Old guys Rule. :hihi:

I just read that story yesterday. He looks like he'll do o.k. against the 20 year olds. He's got 23 years on me and I wouldn't mess with him.
