re: 30 for 30: The Best That Never Was

I always feel bad for guys like this, world at your feet and it gets taken away like that; sad as hell.
I dont know the whole story at all, his nephew said something about breaking a leg so I imagine his downfall was just bad luck

6 3 220 RB who ran the 100 in 9.5 ?

Thats frickin unreal

Uncle Curley banked off the recruiting, can you imagine the shite that went on back then?

damn - that song was almost as good as THATLSUBOY

watching his OU highlights reminds me of how The Cecil ran it for those 3-4 games. (speaking of running back who never was)

I never knew CU had powder blues.

CU original colors

blue of the colorado sky
gold in the streams
silver in the hills

I think the guy had the potential the be GOAT

As impressive as he is athletically, watching his first ever play as a high schooler, I was impressed to see him switch the ball to his outside arm when he ran that kickoff back. He was really gifted all around.

I hate Switzer, but he comes across and an even bigger arse here.

"I'm pissed I couldn't run the kid into the ground"

Switzer did not know how to deal with a player like him. If he was playing now, the coach would not call him out if he ran over a nun.

They lostto Texas in 83 and he decided he wasn't going back to school because he didn't think he was going to win the heisman? What a selfish bitch. Switzer was right to throw him under the bus. Being talented doesn't give anyone the right to not work hard and be selfish. frick Dupree. He comes off as a total pussy. Probably still lives in that double wide in MS.
