Jarvis Landry has Hands of Velcro, Heart of Steel and he is the toughest wide receiver in LSU history. But he has not been nominated for any awards. The question is why?

Awards are a beauty contest.

Because he was on the same team with OBJ and OBJ got the press clippings.

An award should be named after him - most/best acrobatic catches for the season! There - The Landry Award goes to . . .

This. To the people that just watch highlights of games or just the average fan, they think OBJ is better because he makes the "ohhh" plays. For people that really watch the game, Jarvis is a better overall WR, by a good bit too.

Honestly, there are only 2 WRs that I would take over Jarvis. Jordan Matthews from Vandy, and Mike Evans from TAMU. Thats it.

Because he does not play for a "video game" team... He and OBJ split 2400 yds of receptions to each ones detriment but for the greater good of the team.

If I was pickin WR's for a new team he would be one of my top picks.

Good question. Landry is the best football player on the team.

If they nominate Jarvis Landry then they would also have to nominate Beckham. They don't want two receivers from the same school, even though i think Landry deserves an award.

If the game is on the line, I want us throwing to JL. The guy is clutch. He's like the neighborhood slut: "The Sure Thing."

His reward will come in the LSU afterlife.

I dunno. I really don't recall a better possesion receiver, you know, when you absolutely gotta have it. Even if the catch seems impossible.

He's going to make a great pro. But man, just one more year in a Tigers uniform. Is that too much to ask?

He's the leading nominee for the huge signing bonus award.
