Former Iowa running back Jewel Hampton has resurfaced and is headed to Southern Illinois.  Since the Salukis are an FCS team, he should be eligible to play this year. 

Hampton was supposed to carry the rushing torch after Shonn Greene left for the NFL but between injuries and suspensions, it never panned out for the talented tailback.
