This makes me feel really fricking old.

Still have vivid memories of him wreaking havoc in North Carolina's backfield in the Chick-Fil-A opener in 2010 and just thinking "who the frick is this little guy?"

One of my all time favorite Tigers. He lost a step but was hoping he’d have one more good year before hanging up his cleats.

I’ll always hate Tyson Hill a little bit for robbing us of a Mathieu #7 Saints jersey.

No idea if it’s actually his fault. This is not a rational opinion.

So I guess the immediate question is: Is he a HOFer? 3x AP1 1x AP2 1x SB

2010s All Decade team

I think he eventually gets in

Yeah I’m really surprised as well.

He started all games I believe last year and I think he had one more year on his contract. He must really be busted up and hurting

I think the odds are high he has been in discussions with LSU about joining the program is some role and this is what prompted it at this time. He has made no secret that he wants to coach at LSU
