Oh, and Lunatic, if you read this thread I think the game answered your question. When I typed Nick Brossette an old thread I made with Eaux's Rotary Club comments came up. I remember you asking if his quotes were made to motivate Brossette. Looks like it.

If 4 running backs have done it in less than 2 full seasons, that would mean it's more commonplace than elite.

Or it could mean he has a very good chance of playing in the NFL. Just like the other three who have rushed for over 100 yards in a game under Eaux.

Oh great DW has to go to the sideline because his knee pads aren't fully covering his knees!

I was curious how rare this was so I picked a random team (Arkansas) and saw they had 4 different 100 yard rushers in a 18 game span between 2016 & 2017. I'd imagine it's not too uncommon.

Anyways, good for Brossette. Great to see him have success.

ETA: No doubt the other players in the graphic were great.

Well thank God for Coach Eaux or LSU wouldn't have ANY NFL players.

So it's not an elite accomplishment.

So Nick Brossette joined elite company? Well, he joined the same 3 RBs the first time he walked into a position meeting his freshman year.

ETA: Also, only one LSU RB that played under Orgeron has taken a snap in the NFL to date.

Yeah, for your post. I think you totally misinterpreted what is being said.

If a college RB makes it to the NFL he is probably considered elite. Most average college RB's careers end in college.

Since the three other RB's to rush for 100 yards with Eaux as coach are now all in the NFL, they can be considered elite.

Nick Brossette has joined elite company (3 NFL RBs) with his accomplishment Sunday.

It is not that hard really.

You're right.

Start planning the number retiring ceremony.

At this rate, LSU will be out of available numbers by November

He's crawfishing and deflecting like a MoFo. Sometimes when you say something really stupid it's better to accept the fact and admit to it or just move on.

He's just digging a deeper hole for himself.

I'm not sure but I think he is trying to knock two former LSU RB's who are receiving huge checks from NFL teams.

Broussette would have to absolutely dominate this year to ensure he gets drafted. He has very little career game film on him right now.

The frick is WRONG with some of you?


The ONLY response should be:

FANTASTIC!! Congrats, Brossette. Keep it up. We are so fortunate to be Tiger fans and gotten to enjoy these guys!



Why the frick is that so difficult?
