Jake Carlock may be the last of the Pioneers. At least, when it comes to the NFL.
The LIU Post product is an undrafted free agent with the Giants, working to become just the 10th player from the school to make a regular-season roster and play in an NFL game, the first since running back Ian Smart in 2004.
“It’s exciting to represent them,” said Carlock, who has been spotted walking around the Giants' facility in gold and green T-shirts from his alma mater. “It’s a great school.”
What could make him the last? Well, the football team at LIU Post now represents all of LIU and is making the jump from Division II to FCS.
