Among the notables who made the team was offensive lineman Frank Davis. If and when he takes the field, many will consider him the first pure Panamanian to play in the NFL.

Davis grew up in Panama City, played a little club football and went to the University of South Florida. But his strength and hunger were enough for him to beat out Fred Matua, who blocked for three Heisman Trophy winners at Southern Cal. Marinelli said Davis caught the coaches off-guard with how quickly he picked up the offense.

"All he's done is work and improve and knock people down," Marinelli said. "The best way to say it is that he's knocked people on their back."

    “This is not a broken football program by any means. It just needs to be united, to get everybody on the same page, share that same vision, and really to have that standard - best is the standard.”

    "I wish you guys could be in the locker room and be on the practice field because it is so much different from what it has been in the past."
