Too lengthy to put up here, but some nice quotes: Re Shady's.."I was in the back seat of a truck & I literally had a front-row view of what went down, and I kept my arse in the that truck the whole time & high-tailed it out of there as soon as I could" (he does not address what he saw).Speaking as to how tight this yr's team is: "I have taken my whole offensive line out to dinner, and the guys last yr never did that. I am not knocking those guys. I've taken all the receivers out to eat. When we play basketball,me & some of the receivers get together,some of the offensive lineman, too. We all try to do stuff together now instead of doing our own thing". A few funny quotes from Mathieu in another section: "A lot of people are afraid of heights.Not me. I am SHORT." "All men make mistakes but when you have a girlfriend you just find out bout them sooner".

quote:

“The reason I came to LSU was I wanted to be a part of something bigger and something bigger than myself,” he says. “You never know what can happen, but last year I got an SEC Championship ring, and that's something I'll have 'til the day I die—and it's a story to tell about the great times I had with my teammates that year. That's why I came here over Texas A&M and Ole Miss and Arizona. I wanted to be a winner


How can you not like this kid?

I am just shocked (sarcasm) that there wasn't good chemistry with Lee and Jefferson.

Kid learned that he is bigger than a bar fight. Stay in the truck!

I knew I wasn't going against Alabama at the time, but from the sidelines I would see stuff, and I'm doing the read and progression in my head, and I'm saying, 'Throw here,' and sometimes they might throw it to the wrong guy or force something.


:banghead:

Cannot wait for this STUD to be in command of our offense and give the coaches the confidence to let him play the game and make his throws!!!

“If you have six running backs who can start anywhere in the country, you're going to run the ball. You have linemen who average 6-4, 310 across the board, you're gonna run the ball. I think this year we're going to mix it up. It's not all about one guy and stats; it's about what the collective offense can do.”?

Good intrview, but this statement by the writer made me .

quote:

You could argue that Zach Mettenberger will be the first LSU quarterback in more than 20 years to go into a season as both the undisputed starter and a bona fide former blue chipper who is a prototypical passing quarterback.?


I guess he never heard of JR.

Given the conditions of his quote, he probably eliminated JR because Flynn had a lot of backers to be the starter in 2006 coming off of his Peach Bowl performance...so JR was not the "undisputed" starter preseason.
