I was told it was the last one. Don’t know how they take that away.

I believe the one where Reed was running and he dove and tripped him with his arm. Maybe because he was running they labeled it a TFL instead of a sack. Either way impressive play!

quote:

Didn’t know he was born in BR.


His dad was a Center for Ole Miss too. I love how thankful his dad is.

I've seen a few articles about his dad being proud of his son like this one from his time in High School.

quote:

His father, Daverin Geralds, shared his pride in his son and his story as he choked back tears of joy.

"He's become... I'm super proud of the man he's becoming and growing to be. He has a very unique story. Story of adversity. Story of overcoming and finding a deeper, stronger power from within," his father said.

His father said Deuce’s work ethic and drive to uplift others have always set him apart.

"Everything that's been laid in front of him, he's approached it with a relentless effort, with a relentless pursuit. His desire to be great. His desire is to make everyone around him better. It's unmatched," he said.

I follow all things LSU, including recruiting etc
Deuce got some but not a lot of attention, mainly he was from Georgia & Anderson & Brown rightfully so were getting the PR
Then I watched video when Deuce was “ moving in” to dorms & was pleasantly surprised how exciting he & his family were to BE at LSU. Seeing him so happy setting up his dorm room etc reminded me of my kids doing the same. Guess forget these are 18 yr old kids leaving home for 1st time. For now at least it was pure JOY & the biz side of CFB hasn’t happened yet.
He definitely could become LSU LEGEND

Did not know his back story. Pulling even harder now for him to be successful and stay healthy. Respect to the senior Geralds who raised him.

He also had another Forced Fumble against A&M but they claimed forward progress was stopped. Hes such a havoc on defense as a true freshman it’s insane how productive he’s been so soon.

It is a joy watching him play - in addition to being an elite talent, the kid's motor and effort is ridiculous and you can tell that he enjoys playing the game - he's LSU's next great DL

Deuce played extremely well Saturday. He was giving me Dorsey vibes with his intensity out there. He's progressing faster than I expected and looks like he will be an absolute BEAST in the future.

Stat manipulation in college is weird. They’re starting to claim that sacks and tackles prior to 2000 or 01 I think aren’t valid anymore which is ridiculous. Don’t know why they’re doing it.

Very proud father right there. Great job sir on raising Deuce to be such a fine young man and such a great work ethic.
He looked great this game. Can't wait to see what else he does.
