The UIFA made the below statement yesterday regarding player movement from indoor leagues to the CFL and NFL.
UIF sends more players to the CFL and NFL per team than any other indoor league." See the article referrence here: http://www.unitedindoorfootball.com/news/Leagueheadlines/index.html?article_id=1304
While I can believe its a true statement, I would've still liked to see some numbers to back it up.
As far as actual starters, the UIFA had two that I know of in the NFL in Chad Mustard (OL) for the Broncos and Fred Jackson (RB) for the Bills last year. I'm pretty sure none of the other indoor leagues had a single starter in the NFL last year (or any year?).
I know the UIFA has sent a lot of players the CFL's way, but I don't have actual numbers.
I wonder if anyone has seen numbers from other leagues?
Just curious.
