Tyler Sash Is Not Too Sexy For Your Nice Clothes

by RossWB on Apr 7, 2011 9:05 AM CDT in Iowa Hawkeyes Football

If you had told us that an Iowa player had gone out to NYC and gotten all decked out in dapper clothes for a photo shoot for ESPN the Magazine, well... Tyler Sash wouldn't have been our first guess. Also probably not our second, third, fourth, fifth, or -- you get the picture. Tyler MF'n Sash was many things in his four years at Iowa, but "fashion plate" was not one of them. But, hey, when ESPN invites a bunch of projected mid-round draft picks to come out to NYC to get a taste of what the first round guys get to experience... well, why wouldn't you say yes?

The article is running in the copy of the magazine that hits stands this week, although FOTP Mas Casa has a sneak peek over yonder. ESPN also put out a video documenting the adventures of Sash, Casey Matthews (Oregon LB, brother of leading NFL terrormonster Clay Matthews), Rashad Carmichael (Virgina Tech DB), Jeremy Kerley (TCU WR), and some other dudes. The highlight is probably Tyler Sash looking like the goddamn Marlboro Man. You can check it out below:

I've been in love (truly) with five women, the Spanish Republic and the 4th Infantry Division.

Angerer would have been a better choice.

I imagine he has quite the collection of dress flannels.

Mitch King was featured a few years ago

in the same type of spread for ESPN the magazine. That year, however, the focus was guys at the end/not likely to get drafted

I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.

Marlboro Man?

More like Kojak in those first shots.

Less memorable than Sam Okey's Hawkeye career.

So Roc Carmichael is possibly homophobic and potentially has a gambling problem.

Good draft showcase!

The Bengals have already made him an offer.

Yeah, cause homophobic gamblers are soooo rare in professional sports.

Point being: this will probably (sadly) help his draft stock.

by The Final Gun on Apr 7, 2011 12:05 PM CDT up reply actions

I don't know.

I’d be wary of a guy easily sucked into a dice game on a street corner while being filmed by ESPN cameras. GOODELL WILL NOT APPROVE.

I was waiting for someone to say "Is this against NCAA guidelines?"

Are any of them still on scholly? Or do you have to drop out of school to have a chance at entering the NFL?

If you're in the NFL draft, you're out of eligibility.

Either becaused you used it all up or you’re forgoing that final year of eligibility.

I was under the impression

that was only if you had an agent and accepted a contract etc.

Those are the NBA rules.

There’s no turning back in the NFL.

I don't know if you have to

but considering all the work they have to do to prepare for the combine/pro days/draft, you basically have to be done with school (graduated or drop out).
