Former Highland star hopes to get call to NFL

"Filipe realized his draft stock would be negatively impacted by leaving a Pac-10 school for a Division II program"

I am stunned.

He follows Western Oregon's great draft pick, tight end Kevin Boss, who caught a 45-yard pass in the Super Bowl as a rookie for the Giants last year.

Victor got off the bench and onto the field at Western Oregon -- Nike University's loss, Western Oregon's gain. Great move by Victor, you can't make the pros sitting on the bench. Can't stand Nike U.

We know and love Victor. Any team who selects him will be glad they did.

Victor is not just a quality athlete, he is a quality young man that will be an asset to any team or organization. A natural leader that is just a joy to be with.

Ram Pride!

Love you Victor! (And you too brett) Victor's heart will lead him to success anywhere. One of many fine young people I've been blessed to know at Oregon. GO VICTOR!
