Suggestions for questions?



Edited with responses to a few questions:

Asked what he thought about Cam Cameron rumors.

-He said he'd heard them, wouldn't speculate on likelihood that he will/won't come to LSU. Said he thought he would be a good fit at LSU. Liked the system he had set up at San Diego.
Thinks Stud is better at OL than OC.


Asked how trucking Major Wright felt:

-He said that whole game was a crazy. Said that run specifically, along with the SI article they did on him before the game, was enough to get him drafted.
-Added that he pancaked Ray Lewis last year and that was his most memorable hit to date.

Asked about life after football:

-He said he's a part owner of Marucci bats, says his favorite sport is baseball. Also opening a physical therapy/training center in Shreveport next year. Has "a plan for the future."

Asked about his pregame ritual:

-He said he listened to Elvis and Vaughn Miller clowns him about it.

Asked about the Longhorn arm tat he had:

-Said he got it removed "ages ago". He used to love The Rock. That tat was a scaled down version of his.

Asked why John David Booty went to USC:

-Said Abram Booty's experience at LSU pushed him to USC.


Misc. from his speech:
-He still loves the Saints.
-He's got 2 kids, one on the way, (his wife's dad/uncle both played in the NFL).
-Said he thinks Saban "kinda is and kinda isn't" a traitor.




There is a bit more but I don't feel like typing it all.

Helluva nice guy.

What he thinks about LSU's offense the past 4 years ( give him national rankings, QB-TD passes, all the stats etc.), and then ask him what he thinks about that in 3 sentences.

I dont want an answer like, "It takes everybody being on the same page and working together as a unit to make an offense successful. You have to work hard in practice and know the plays to a T to be successful" <----boring ambiguous response.

Also, tell him to post on TD.

I've been here a while, so I'm fully aware of the types of bullshite responses I'll get from you people.

I've got just about all of the questions down already. Just trying to think of one or two miscellaneous questions to get for the hell of it.

I'm thinking about asking what he thinks about the Cam Cameron rumors, or Ole Piss's strong recruiting class.












Oh, and GFY.

Ask if he or any players he knew ever would go on message boards such as this one. And realistically if a fanbase had/has an effect on a players.

Ask him why Denver signed a fullback/short yardage back to fill a need, but didn't shore up that glaring hole in their prevent defense?

I'm hoping he answers the questions directly and doesn't try to talk around it.

Suggestions for questions?


Ask him about his first fumble, playing for LSU - then ask how it felt to make that string of carries without a fumble after that (or, at least without losing a fumble). How proud is he for overcoming that early hiccup?

Ask about his faith, his relationship with Tebow (both during college and now), and how he feels about the way Tebow has been treated for his overt faith.

Ask what it is about LSU that makes it special, makes him special for having been a part of it (both the 2007 championship year, and before) and should make all of us think it is special. Does he remember coming out of the tunnel, in uniform, the first time? The last time? How does remembering that make him feel?

The 2007 Florida game, for which he will be forever remembered - ask him to go through the game for him - the game plan, the execution, the crowd, the experience - Heck, ask him how he felt when the USC score was announced - did the team realize right then that the game would be THE defining point in the season.

Ask him to describe his reaction upon LSU's selection to the BCS game?

Since going pro, who does he keep up with? Teammates, former college opponents? Is he planning to stay involved in football after he retires, or does he plan to do something else?

Ask him how team sports makes him a better father, husband and citizen.

Does he prefer Toonces or Sailor Mike?

What did he spend his signing bonus on?

When he was here which sorority was his favorite?

What's a good BBQ restaurant in Denver?

(PM me if you need more.)
