Watch: Psalm Wooching from NFL prospect to USA rugby
By Online Editors
Psalm Wooching had the American dream at his fingertips, touted as a probable late-round pick, instead Psalm walked away from the possibility of money and fame to pursue his first love.

“I will be exchanging shoulder pads for short shorts and rugby boots,” said Wooching in a statement at the time.
“My first love and sport I excelled in was Rugby, and it is time for me to follow my heart.”
“My goal is to be able to represent my country while playing rugby and then on to playing in the next Olympics.”
“This has been a dream of mine for quite some time and I will do anything to accomplish it.”
“In doing so, I hope to have all your support.”
Since leaving the NFL behind he has been playing his rugby with Seattle Saracens, been on trial with Top 14 side Pau and recently scored his first international try for USA ‘A’.

Hope now we can get some clarity about next season and beyond in terms of format. Presently between the Prem, the Champ and the 2 clubs being rebuilt we have 25 teams, but it sounds like the long term plan is 2 professional divisions of 10 clubs each. So 5 have to go. I'm curious to see how they solve for that. Simplest way I suppose would be 11 team Prem, 14 team Champ, 1 relegated from the Prem, 5 relegated from the Champ with no one promoted. Issue with that is, Ealing is probably suing to come up, and also I feel like if they are going to ring-fence below the Champ, I'd imagine the team who go down, they'd want to base that on things like financial prospects and the size of their ground rather than just who has a bad run of form next season.
Go to commentssounds like BS to me but he sure knows more about rugby than I.
