This is great news.

Drafted or signed as a free agent?

Gives us all a reason to watch the Cowboys again. Congrats, Lance, you deserve it!!

Guess I gotta get me a Dunbar cowboys jersey now.

So, he will battle Felix Jones (bust), Demarco Murray (great last year, but blew out knee), Phillip Tanner (former MTSU back), and who else for a job?

I think he stands a real good chance of making that team.

Great news. I'm so happy for him!

Noooooooooooooooooo any team but the cowboys. Oh well, congrats anyway!

According to the ESPN Draft Tracker, no players were drafted from North Texas this year. Has anyone seen anything official to validate this before we go all NT Daily on this?

He was signed as an undrafted free agent.

If he makes the team and that's a BIG if, he's going to be pretty much a special teams guy. Unless the Cowboys have injuries, which if you look at Murray's and Jones' history it's pretty much a given they will

They've been following the Cowboys FA signings. Looks like Darrell Scott's the only other FA RB so far. He sounds more like a blocking/pounding guy, as opposed to the quickness and agility that Lance has.

Maybe I'm missing something here, but none of those guys scream "Dunbar can't beat me". The only obstacle I see is the fact that Jones loves Arkansas players, so Felix will have a leg up.

Dunbar just has to be better than Tanner...again.

Now Tony Mitchell to the Mavericks next year!

It's getting more and more difficult to stick with the Phish.

This gives me a reason to watch pre-season games!

This is awesome! Felix Jones has been injury-prone in the pros, and DeMarco Murray was in college and was again last year! Lance really has a chanceto go in, work hard, and make that roster.

Congratulations, Lance!

This is awesome, I really hope he makes the team.

He had workouts with both the Cowboys and Saints. Glad to see him stay local.

Now Tony Mitchell to the Mavericks next year!

Man that would be awesome!

Now Tony Mitchell to the Spurs next year!

Fixed

Playing special teams is a must. If he can also be trusted to block in the backfield and protect Romo then he'll have a chance to see a few meaningful snaps at RB during the season.
