07/21/2010 - Lake Forest, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago Bears on Tuesday signed running back Harvey Unga, who the team selected in the seventh round of the supplemental draft last week.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but the Chicago Tribune reported it is for four years, along with a signing bonus worth approximately $60,250.
Unga finished his collegiate tenure at BYU as the school's all-time leading rusher with 3,455 yards and added 36 rushing touchdowns over four seasons (2006-09) with the Cougars. He departed school in a cloud of suspicion, though, after breaking the school's strict honor code. His girlfriend, former BYU women's basketball player Keilani Moeaki, also left school for that reason.
The native of Provo, Utah is expected to compete for a third-string running back slot, according to the Tribune.
In other roster moves, the Bears released defensive tackle Jimmy Saddler- McQueen and wide receiver Vic Hall.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
