Not sure where to put this, but since he is considered a sleeper...

The pride of Fordham
John Skelton was lightly recruited coming out of El Paso, Texas, so he figured if he couldn't play at a big-time football school he'd at least get a good education. So his uncle Javier Loya, a minority owner of the Houston Texans, took him on a tour of Northeast colleges, dropping off game tape and hoping to drum up interest at Columbia, Holy Cross, New Hampshire and Fordham among others. Skelton had never even heard of Fordham until the visit, but four seasons later, he leaves as the school's career leader in passing yards (9,923), including 69 TDs. Skelton's mechanics, particularly his footwork, need polish. But he has excellent size (6-5, 243) and a strong arm.

This is new to me. I don't know how interested the Texans are though.
