Dang! Respect in the New York Times. Good find. Thanks.

Thanks for the link!
This is what differentiates him as a college player from Glenn Dorsey in my opinion.

Nevis’s technique is to stay low with his pad level and crash through blockers with shoulder pads and knee pads.

The NYT consistently gives good coverage to the SEC. Its sports section is legit.

They interviewed that guy on Finebaum. He flew from NYC to BR to interview Les and Drake. I found it odd that he picked Drake as his story over, PP7, the QB's, or even Chavis. I'm glad he wrote the story though. The guy seems to like LSU much to the dismay of Paul Fineburm.

Dorsey liked to use his hands and "play the keys." Nevis is just brute force. They are both great and I love to watch both of them.

Nevis has been the surprise of the team this year. Mathieu included.

Nevis is much quicker and more athletic than Dorsey in my opinion. The biggest problem we may have is that when LSU goes to Jordan Hare to play, tackling of our defensive linemen by their offensive linemen may not necessarily be a penalty.

WOW, that's sweet......

Yeah, this writer (Ray Glier) was on Finebaum last week talking about this article & Les Miles. Finebaum could barely stomach all the good things Ray had to say about Miles & LSU's defense. It was pretty funny.

And Finebaum: I hope a flesh eating disease eats your dick off!

remember when it was rantard gospel that brick haley didn't like for his defensive linemen to get sacks?
yeah.....

There has been nothing stupider on the Rant than the constant bickering about the offense in 2007 & 2008, followed by the constant bickering about the defense in 2009 & 2010.
People always get the most basic shite confused for some reason...

“I got better from being in the system and getting experience; it’s the coaching,” said Nevis, who was not a full-time starter until this season. “The coaches helped me improve my technique. I’m blessed. The man upstairs is making this possible.”
Hmmmm, our best players seem to think we have good coaching. Could they know more than the rant? Is it possible?

I love this team more every week. Geaux Drake and Geaux Tigers.
