The Return Of Ned

A profile in courage from Florida International University: Running back A'Mod Ned, the injured Panther who heroically joined the fray of the infamous Miami-FIU brawl from a month or so ago despite, you know, being on crutches, is expected to return to practice this week and could be able to return to action this week for FIU's epic battle with Louisiana-Monroe.

Of all the stories to come out of the fight, we've always felt that Ned's story has been undersold. The loyalty to his teammates to rush out onto the field in their defense during a fight despite his obvious disadvantages was what college football, frankly, is all about.
