When was the last time...

That the NCAA D-I leading rusher went undrafted? I have a feeling it will happen this spring...

If Maurice Clarett got drafted, then so will Garrett Wolfe.

A couple of backs from North Texas led the nation in rushing and didn't get drafted. I think JJ Arrington from Cal was close to leading the nation and I don't think he got drafted. It happens.

Arrington plays for the Cardinals... I think they drafted him, too.

Yeah, I checked it. They took him in the second round. That was pretty dumb.

Did Darren Sproles get drafted from Kansas State a couple of years ago? I think he was the leading rusher in D1, but he was awfully small.

El Roberson held practically every offensive record at K State when he left and I don't think he was drafted. Sproles was on the Chargers for awhile as a kick returner and a backup RB. He did pretty well when I saw him. Tha was last season. I don't recall seeing him this season. I'm not sure if San Diego drafted him or not.

Darren Sproles - San Diego Chargers - NFL - Yahoo! Sports

Chargers drafted Sproles in the 4th round. Doesn't look like he's played this year.

I don't know who Chance Kretschmer is, but it looks like he was the leading rusher in 2001 and wasn't drafted.

Sproles did, yes.

Wolfe will be drafted, I'm pretty certain. He could be 2007's Maurice Jones Drew.

I think Wolfe will be drafted later as more of a kick returner because he is fast, but then again, I'm not sure how good his returns are, or if he even does return kicks..

He does not return punts nor kicks. I can possibly see a GM taking a chance on him in the 7th Round.
