Former North Texas Running Back Lance Dunbar got some attention from some NFL Scouts after his play in the Casino Del Sol All-Star Game. Dunbar was the leading rusher in the game carrying the ball ten times for 59 yards leading his Stripes team to a 24-21 victory. The Stripes team won with 22 seconds left on a pass from San Jose State QB Matt Faulkner to Division II Minnesota State's WR Lamark Brown who won the MVP Trophy.

Dunbar was not invited to NFL combines but maybe things might change. Here is what one scouting report said about Dunbar. They look at him as being a little undersize but has a good 2^nd level burst of speed. He also impressed some scouts because on one cutback he found a big hole to run through resulting in a great gain. When the middle linebacker came in to tackle him, he lowered his shoulder and got an extra five yards. When he took a screen pass he was able to made the defender miss which resulted in a seven yard gain.

Dunbar got some attention before the game when he was listed as one of the top ten players to watch. Considering there were close to 100 players at the game, he got some people to notice him before kickoff.
