Senior Linebacker Could Be Howard's Next NFL Star

This electrical engineering major could be Howards next big NFL star.

WASHINGTON, D. C. -- On Monday, Howard University senior linebacker Endor Cooper -- already named the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference's preseason defensive player of the year -- was honored as the conference's defensive player of the week. In Sunday's 12-7 loss to Georgetown University, Cooper recorded a career high 18 tackles, including 13 unassisted and 2.5 tackles for losses, according to the official Web site of Howard athletics.

Cooper burst onto the scene as a sophomore when he recorded five sacks in a game against Bethune-Cookman. That was the most ever in a game in Howard football history.
Cooper's talent was noticed when he played at Hylton High School in Woodbridge. He was selected as one of George Michael's Golden 11 and received scholarship offers from big programs.
