Just for fun, can you ADD and then REMOVE (due to injury) R-FR QB Robert Riddle from Mercer...

Looked like he was going to be the 'missing link' for Mercer this season, but he broke his collar bone in the last :22 of the game with The Citadel while driving the Bears down the field (had already covered 40 yards in 30 seconds/6 plays and was at the CIT 35 with 2nd & 10 and 1 timeout) for the potential game-winning or tying score. He had just taken them 75 yards in 7 plays/1:11 to tie the game in the previous series, but, alas, the Bears gave up a KOR TD forcing him to have to do it again...until the big, mean bellhop grabbed him and jumped on him (legally in the NCAA...but not in the NFL these days :-)) as he threw the ball away to avoid a 1st down sack.

Barring this injury, I really do think he would have been the Jerry Rice Award Winner. Very special Player!
