DECISIONS! DECISIONS!


Memphis, Tennessee:  Future CFL Hall of Famer and Memphis Hounddogs quarterback Ricky Ray is still contemplating his football future. Ray has two CFL Grey Cup titles under his belt and had passed for almost 14,000 yards and 62 touchdowns in his AFFA career. Yet a Pantheon Cup title has eluded him.

Ray has spent his entire AFFA career with the Hounddogs and head coach Philip Fulmer is patiently waiting his veteran quarterbacks decision. The Hounddogs recently signed quarterback T.J Barrett as heir apparent if Ray decides to call it a career.

" Obviously we would love to have Ricky (Ray) back. But we understand and will respect whatever decision he makes. " said head coach Philip Fulmer.

With AFFA training camps opening in just about a week, fans are anxious to hear the status of the Hounddogs quarterback . No time clock has been set on a decision , and the Hounddogs organization is waiting patiently.

" I have been thinking hard about whether returning to play is in my best interest. I have been talking it over with my wife, family and friends, and they have been very supportive. I would love to play again, but I have alot to consider. My health and how the grind of another season will have on my body. The desire to play is still there and I still enjoy playing the game. " said Ray.
