Thanks. Man, that team really was sick with talent then.

Wasn't that Randle Mackey kid like a year ahead of both of them, or two years maybe?

Listened to the interview live. RR's Dad was pissed throughout. Whether he was serious or posing is up for debate. He said Les was lying to them. He said Les was telling them they'd play different positions and could be on the field at the same time, but the position he promised both in separate meetings was the same. When the interview ended he said he didn't know where RR would go and this was at 5pm the day before NSD. Then a bunch of Gumps started calling in begging RR to go to Bama with Julio.

The word around Bastrop was always that Randle's dad was trying to take the heat off benton for going out of state. Classy move, if that's how it went.

I know Randle was a year behind Mackey because he started at QB his senior year. I think Benton was gone a year ahead of Mackey? There was another Port Sulphur kid named Jamal Recasner who came up with Mackey after the storm. He signed with Southern Miss as a RB but I don't know if he ever did anything. Loaded team.
