I'd like to see a video of some of the many times I saw him in a collapsed pocket with 2 or 3 defensive linemen hanging on to his legs and waist while he drilled a completion...then slapped the linemen to the ground and kicked 'em.....

the game against alabama (in bama) where either josh reed or rohan (maybe both) broke some records was great to watch.

The game vs Illinois wasn't bad either. He was a special talent. Too bad his first years were wasted by inept coaching. With Jimbo or Crowton for five years and he probably would have set passing records that would never be broken at LSU. He made it look so easy.

Thanks for the link. For me one of the top 5 games I can remember witnessing in TS.

How is Ro not at least an NFL backup anymore?

The guy was smooth as silk.

The 01 team was just fun to watch on offense. Had Reed been faster, I think Ro would have the single season TD record. But teams would tackle him short, and Toe would just punch it in on the way to all his TDs.

This is what I remember. He could just, like, flip the ball and it would go fifty yards -- all arm.

I remember for a while certain unnamed rantards were 100% convinced that Davey should start for the Patriots over Tom Brady.

2001 at Alabama, LSU won 35-21, but the score makes it look like a closer game than it really was.

Rohan Davey
35 of 44, 528 yds

Josh Reed
19 rec, 293 yds, 1 TD

Michael Clayton
7 rec, 126 yds

couldn't find it, but did find this. I was in the Georgia Dome when Josh Reed made this phenomenal catch from Davey >

I was a tad bit intoxicated at the time, but how did we blow an 18 point lead in the 4th quarter?
