Great job Rob!

My one joy during the draft so far has been having dinner at Quarterdeck and looking up to see Rob's name fly by right after the pick —–so awesome.

Beware the talons of the Mighty Owls!

On a side note:

Now that we have the highest pick head to head against a familiar southern rival, wonder what they have to say about this?

FIU's Antwan Barnes went to the Baltimore Ravens in the fourth round, 134th pick overall, of the 2007 draft.

Housler spanked him by 65 spots.

Anthony Gaitor is regarded as a player who could go, then you have stretches in Greg Ellingson, Cedric Mack and Brad Serini.

Congrats Rob. This is great for the program. FAU is on the map.  I think Jean and Lockley have chance to get drafted.  That would be great for the program.  Rob being drafted in the 3rd round will help with recruiting next year.

This is great!  Housler is going into an ideal situation, there's a lot of speculation at the TE position so if all goes well Rob could see some significant playing time.  On top of that, Arizona is a little bit closer to his native Texas.  Congrats Rob, it was only two years ago that I saw you routinely working on your beater Nissian in the Casa Del Rio parking lot!  Best of luck, remember where you came from, and don't be a stranger to Boca Raton.

Rick lol, I thought Housler being drafted would be great by itself, lol. The FIU comparison is just gravy? lol. The way you guys dogged him on this forum that he couldn't catch a pass to save his life, I'm surprised y'all back on the bandwagon singing his praises, lol.

Well, i'm not gonna dis him or get into the FIU/FAU comparison. Congratulations to Housler (yes, and to the FAU family  ::)) . I will pray that he succeeds and doesn't get "rusty", lol.

Who's dissing him?? This is a celebration thread ;D

BUT, head to head recruiting advantage is also at play…

And this will help us ;)

I agree with Rick. We didn't bash him, no one said oh he's terrible I hope he never gets drafted. All FIU fans know TY Hilton is going to get drafted barring any unforeseen circumstances, but if he drops a lot of easy passes or continuously does something that you know he's fully capable of doing, you're all going to get on him for it. Not because you don't like him or you think he sucks, but because maybe it costs you a win or because you are die-hard fans and are very passionate about your school.

He dropped a lot of easy passes while he was at FAU, granted he looked like he could catch anything when he was at the combine. But we all know after seeing him play for 4 years that he can drop some easy ones

My two favorite teams are FAU, and who ever is beating FIU!
