MONTGOMERY, Alabama -- While most older men talk a big game about their former athletic abilities, one 61-year-old man in Montgomery is looking to walk the walk by becoming the oldest-ever college football player.

Faulkner University officials say that after clearing up a few eligibility concerns, Alan Moore, a former college football player in the 1960s and Vietnam veteran, will take to the field once again this season as the Eagles' newest team member.

, Moore suited up last year as a kicker for Holmes Community College in Mississippi after unsuccessfully trying to make the team of his alma mater, Jones County Junior College, where he played his freshman year in 1968.

In 2010, Moore was named the oldest person to ever play in the National Junior College Athletic Association.
