◊ Penn State has long been respected for its accomplishments and reputation on the football field, centered around the program and university's principle "Success With Honor." The driving force behind that ideal is that winning games isn't the most important thing, but rather, winning the right way. Today, we'll look at a few Nittany Lions that have come to embody "the Penn State...

DID YOU KNOW? Tony Hunt was one of only a handful of college football players who dared to attempt the mid-air "Heisman" pose. Remember back in 2007 when Tony Hunt was drafted by the Eagles and the entire portion of the PSU fan base whom are also Eagles fans were praising the pick and felt that Hunt would become the short-yardage power back to complement a speedy Brian...

The Eagles have added another undrafted free agent at cornerback. More draft grades have been released. And Tony Hunt is getting a tryout with the Giants.

Newer readers -- and not just Tommy's guys, but also the folks we picked up last season -- might not understand all the Tony Hunt jokes on this site.  Those are at my expense. I have a soft spot for PSU players anyway, but Hunt really was one of the guys I most enjoyed rooting for over the last few years.  I was more than a little excited when we drafted him a few years ago...

One of the big problems that the Eagles have had in developing their young running backs, such as Ryan Moats and Tony Hunt, has been getting them up to speed on how to pick up blitzes in the NFL. Seems...

Fourteen. Fourteen freaking dropped balls. That is almost 3 dropped passes a game. That means 2-3 at Week 6. So, am I surprised? No, and here's why. The Eagles front office has set this team up for disaster. By bringing back Donovan McNabb for this season, the Eagles basically told the whole league, "We are going to throw the football". What the Eagles didn...

In a report from Ralph Vacchiano, the official rookie mini-camp roster has been announced. The first practice is set to start this Friday morning. Besides the rookies drafted and signed, QB Rhett Bomar, among other current Gmen, will also be in attendance. Here’s some names you may recognize: RB Tony Hunt Rb DeShawn Wynn (got some legit PT in Green Bay in years past) WR Riley...

Brian Westbrook's two broken ribs combined with uneven play from Tony Hunt at his new fullback position mean that Hunt is now back at tailback, his...

Last year Westbrook rushed for 68 and 97 yards respectively, and scored 3 times against the Giants. If Westbrook can't go, look for Correll Buckhalter and Tony Hunt to get some burn (although the odds of Westbrook not playing against the G-Men are the same odds that you're going to go see the new Resident Evil movie this weekend - exactly!).

Yeah, I know, Correll Buckhalter looks like he's out this week with a concussion, so Penn State grad Tony Hunt should move up to the #2 spot and potentially get some carries this week. With little else good to talk about this week, a lot of people are jumping on the story of Hunt's big chance...

The Eagles announced this afternoon that they had released RB Tony Hunt to make room on the roster for linebacker Tracy White, who had been released...

The Eagles third round pick from the 2007 draft has been released. Tony Hunt, the pride of Penn State, but his lack of athletic ability really makes me wonder why he was drafted so high. I had serious doubts about Hunt as rookie in the preseason. I remember seeing him break off a 13 yard run, [...]

After trying Tony Hunt and Dan Klecko at fullback, the Eagles decided it was finally time to bring in someone who can actually play the position. They signed former Patriot Kyle Eckel, a Philly native, for the remainder of the season. To make room for Eckel, the team released safety J.R. Reed. Eckel played 12 games last season with the Patriots and ran for 90 yards and...

Resounding efforts by several rookies such as Deshawn Jackson, Trevor Laws (playing injured), Quinton Demps and brief flashes by second year player?Tony Hunt give the Birds hope that they may receive help from this area.? Strong games by the wideouts as a whole leaves room?to be?encouraged that more production could becoming from a relatively weak [...]

Talk about a completely different game from the Monday Night shootout in Dallas. The Eagles and Steelers played an old fashioned, defense-first football in a low scoring slugfest that the Eagles won 15-6. The Eagles defense was the story of the game, putting a ton of pressure on Ben Roethlisberger and shutting down Willie Parker and the Steelers running game. Unfortunately for the...

As the July 21st opening of training camp approaches and the offseason comes to an end, we pretty much know all the major pieces that we will see lining up for our Eagles come opening day. We can now start to analyze the line up and figure out the question marks facing Big Red for [...]

The Eagles have wrapped up at Lehigh and are inching closer and closer to the regular season. It won’t be too long before the Eagles are forced to make some decisions regarding their roster. Some players may be placed on the Physically Unable to Perform list, meaning they’ll miss at least the first six games of the season. Other players will either be released from...

Former Detroit Lions running back and Chester native Kevin Jones is a free agent, and he would love to come back to Philly and play for his hometown team. He may get his wish, as the Eagles are amongst 12 teams interested in signing the former thousand yard rusher. The Eagles would likely have the inside track in signing Jones because he is very vocal about his interest in playing in Philadelphia.

During an interview with Andy Reid, when asked how the DeSean Jackson matter was being handled, Reid simply replied, "I'm not going into that at all. They took care of it, he'll be fine." I wonder what the Eagles players did to "take care of" DeSean. Maybe a little hazing, probably a lot of ribbing. Read the full article to find out what the Eagles lockerroom did to DeSean. It's hilarious.

Eagles GM, the man who brought you such draft luminaries as Rashard Barksdale, CJ Gaddis, Nate Ilaoa, Jeremy Bloom, Tony Hunt, Victor Abiamiari, Ryan Moats and many many more continues to crack us up. In an interview with the Bucks County Courier (the STAR magazine of Philadelphia), Heckert states t...

Inactive players for the Eagles tonight: QB Donovan McNabb S Quintin Mikell RB Tony Hunt G Max Jean-Gilles DT Kimo von Oelhoffen G Scott Young DE...

Matt McCoy, Reggie Brown, Kevin Kolb, Jerome McDougle, and Tony Hunt to name just a few. You say bust, I say you are damn right.Sure all these picks sucked but lucky enough for the Eagles they weren't deadly picks. There was always another player at their position that made their shortcomings ...

Eagles declared RB Tony Hunt, QB Kevin Kolb, DB Marcus Paschal, G Max Jean-Gilles, DT Kimo von Oelhoffen, G Scott Young, DE Jevon Kearse, and DE...

When I made my projections for who would make the Eagles 53 man roster, I left Tony Hunt off because the Eagles don't have room for another running back on the roster. Despite how well Hunt played against the Panthers, the Eagles simply don't need another running back after Brian Westbrook, Lorenzo Booker and Correll Buckhalter. But what about at fullback? According to...
