It's really amazing. Here's and undersized, lightly recruited CB with 1 BCS Conf offer.

He plays two seasons, only one as a starter, gets kicked off the team and has since been on the cover of SI and ESPN the Mag.

I just can't think of anything comparable, forget LSU, in any sport with a similar story line.

You're a dumb arse and a piece of shite lsu fan if you're going to say 1. Tyrann doesn't deserve to be "there". His play didn't warrant that? And 2. That he's not a tiger. Hahahah. You can take Tyrann out of lsu but you can't can't the tiger out of Tyrann

Now you know how we felt about Cecil Collins.....the waste of talent was amazing....

in T7's case, he was going to go down as a legend, now its for all the wrong reasons......

He got kicked off the team. Therefore, he is not a Tiger. Simple.

Were you ever part of a team that had a player with such a,along skill? Or a integral part of a teams success? You sound like you didn't make the team or you road the bench.. Because to play with someone as a teammate with tyrann's ability is nothing short of great honor to his teammates. So stfu

If the players claim him, why shouldn't you? An ignorant fan

Also, CLM claims him as a tiger. Can't even follow your own head coach

He should just go ahead and finish filing down those two front teeth to look more like fangs.

Maybe in playing time, but Newton was highly recruited with many offers, a physical freak, and played QB.

TM was non of those things.

Yeah, but those metrics aren't fair to compare TM and Cam. Look at physical play and both are on level playing fields. Look at competitive nature, look at drive, look at the intensity, look at the intangibles.

I mean, I understand your point that he doesn't play QB, he isn't a physical freak in terms of his body, wasn't high recruited... because of his size. But he has as many athletic traits as Cam. Don't even try to argue that
