I don't think so. I have no idea how he was able to do it game after game after game. I have never seen a defensive playmaker like that in college.

What's interesting about the Badger to me was that he wasn't necessarily a combine freak or sure-fire first rounder (if he would have been a normal draftee). And this was the conventional wisdom about him prior to getting kicked off, when his drug issues actually became fully understood. It's becoming more and more clear in retrospect, however, that he would absolutely deserve a 1st round pick. It's trite to say this, but there's so much more to a player in instincts, vision, and coordination that can't be measured.

It's impossible to replicate a Honey Badger offensively, but some LSU fans are expecting a similar type of situation with Guice at RB this year. Just a freak playmaker oozing with confidence. A wise man once told me Fournette-Guice will be like an offensive version of Peterson-Mathieu for us.

Thank you John Chavis for your work. As sports fans, we appreciate it.


And yet you saw how Chavis utilized him on 1/9. What a retard.

Yep, agreed

But, the guy that told you that isn't very wise.

That second punt return against Georgia in the SECCG is one of my all-time favorite plays.

Will there be another player who emulates what TM did? Probably. However, he was so unique and transformative, I think that's what the question should focus on. He played the position like no one before him.

Ever is a long time, so I have to think another player will come around. I doubt I see him in my lifetime though.

That UGA return was like pressing every button on the playstation controller

He only played two season, didnt even start as a freshman, but his highlight reel plays like it was career highlights for 4 year Heisman winner. It's insane the sheer amount of plays he made by himself.

Plus the fact that the Honey Badger nickname started on this very site
