I didn't know there was a debate.

Shuck when he good.
Suck when he bad.

Definitely not how Jarvis Landry pronounced it, lol.
I’m not even sure Fournette knew who Landry was talking about.

Love the twisted narrative. The media propaganda kept Sanders from being a 1st round pick, the same media that was trying to make him a top 5 pick

How is it possible to get a K sound out of OUGH??? In what language is that remotely possible?

bough, cough, tough, although, shough, dough

We have nothing to do with how it is pronounced; he settled that a year ago. Pay attention.

I thought we had the perfect "Shough nuff" nickname for him until I heard it said out loud.

Because it Scottish and not English.
Scottish Roots: The surname has European/Scottish origins.
Linguistic Shift: Linguistically, the letter combination "-gh" at the end of older Scottish and Germanic words historically traced back to a guttural "ch" sound (similar to the "ch" in the Scottish word loch). Over time in North America, that rough ending was anglicized into a hard "k" sound (-ck).

Just because it's on the Internet, doesn't mean it's true. No one will ever convince me that is pronounced shuck. I'll say it that way cause I'm a fan, but I'll never believe it.

So despite historic evidence presented to you, the guy telling you that's how his name is pronounced, you refuse to believe it? Do you think he just woke up one day and decided he wanted to his name to sound like that? How stupid are you?
