No. John Thomas, the guy that didn't sign due to grades, was the one that had knee surgery.

One of my dad's friends from childhood was Tyler Lafauci, who was an All-American offensive guard for the Tigers back in the early-mid 70s. Tyler was listed a 5'8 his freshman year (his actual height), 5'10 his sophomore year, 6'0 his junior year and 6'2 his senior year. He never grew an inch the entire time


Just thought I'd check your post. And you are . . . correct +/- 1". I'm looking at an LSU-Bama '71 program p. 25. It shows #64 Tyler Lafauci as 5'11", 245 Soph DT from NOLA.

They were either given the option to measure with shoes on or somebody is stretching those heights.

I would bet that Mathieu measures just under 5-9 at the combine/pro day.

I kinda like Gordon at 280. Jumbo tight end that can be a physical blocker and punish defenders after the catch.

Is 5 QB's overkill? Maybe not, I don't know.

If all the current QBs stay on the team for next season, with the addition on Rettig and Jennings, we'll have 6 scholarship QBs

QBU

And apparently Rivers is being moved to DE so no we don't have too many.

After seeing him in the big cat videos, I'm going to be watching for him in the coming years.

I've met a few of these guys in person on several occasions and TM7 is far from 5'10, Mickey Johnson is more like 5'10 and Anthony Johnson is closer to 6'1 definitely not 6'3.

some of those look inaccurate as hell, no way TM is 5'10 btw


My son is 5'10", talked to TM in a bar, and said he's no taller than 5'8". Said his back and chest are huge, though.
