I have to admit, I knew he would be an NFL player but did not expect him to be a Pro Bowler. You?

A guy serving beers at a bar told me when he was signed he would be at least all-conference and that he was a legit star.

How right he was...

Gobears20 started a Xavien Howard Pro Bowl thread. You could post it there to keep all the discussion together.

Yeah, but that thread quickly digressed into a CABers vs. Rhulers argument (as 95% of threads here do). I was just trying to celebrate and be proud of a former Bear, no matter the regime.

Ahh...i thought you may have missed it. Makes sense though.

dont recall that, Reid is the more likely candidate... CPB asked these kids to play cover zero alot, that is tough if you cant pressure the QB

Howard joins a pantheon of ace Baylor NFL defensive backs that were dynamite pros.

Vann McElroy, Thomas Everett, Ron Francis, Robert Blackmon, Ray Crockett, Gary Baxter, Xavien Howard...Baylor DBs have quietly been a difference maker across several generations.

Good point
