In the long run, I think the only one we will really miss will be CRob. Would have made this great class complete. Willis may not qualify, but would be my second most significant loss. We have really never used small speedsters like Speedy well (think Trindon Holliday). TB has already been arrested and Hootie's position was improved upon with Jamaal, unless he converted to linebacker. We done good.



I agree and would include, if Willis had signed with us , we might not have signed all of the other DL. :nana:
I read the story below several pages back, I know it has nothing to do with Tony Brown but it was to funny not to comment on.

I got arrested and had my case on "crime stoppers". I had not broken any laws and was respectfull to the arresting osifer. I got 2 years and 6 yrs on the sexy registry.I had been drinking all night, woke up and drove to my moms to cut her grass. It's a hot summer Alabama morning so I shed my shirt and get to mowing. All is well as I get an uncomfortable feeling in ma belly. I said to myself, "frick it, I'll make it". I continue to mow and just like lightning, I 2poop my britches. So I kill the mower and look down and behold, I have a 2girls-onecup-plus a can of alpo-campbells vegtable soup lookin mess running down my legs into the top of my sneakers. I am now pissed as I didn't bring my keys to mom's house and I sure as hell ain't setting my shitty arse in the seat of my '68 Barracuda. I walk around to the back of the house and get the hose pipe turned on, drop my shorts (commando) and start spraying. I'm now facing the house and that water is cold as hell. I get most of the sludge washed off my legs so I bend over, reach between my legs with the sprayer and blast the offending orifice. I then happen to look between my legs, past my mamouth slong, through the hose pipe monsoon and see my moms neighbor lady standing there upsidedowner as hell ~ 20 yards away from me. She's standing there, upsidedowner as hell, arms crossed, wide eyed stairing at me like I've done something wrong! So I stair right back at this upsidedowner as hell bitch and she don't fricken flinch. She's giving me the stink-eye and I'm giving her the three-eyed stink-eye so I just continue the irrigation of the offending orifice. Satisfied that ma bunghole is realatively clean, I stand up, turn around and put my shorts and shoes back on. As you may have guessed, this right-side up bitch is still standing there looking at me like I should cut her fricking grass! Not knowing what to do, I just give her one of these I did the mash, I did the monster mash.


Things we can all learn from this story.

1. Never mow a yard in a neighborhood were an neighbor lady can call the police and the "arresting osifer" can arrive quicker than the average person can wash their arse and get their cloths back on.

2.Never include the term "mamouth slong" in your explanation to an "arresting osifer".

3 If an "arresting osifer" tells you that you will be put on a "sexy registry" he is not a real cop.
4. Never, and I mean never, tell this type of story about yourself.

Can you believe this is first "news" story on the local Fox station tonight? Sounds like there was a party going on, they came and arrested some dude, the patrons didn't like it (this is where Brown showed his arse by shouting at the cops). Was told to back away, he kept cursing, they attempted to grab him, he tried to run away and they pepper sprayed him. Took him jail. Sounds like a very young kid (who should probably still be in high school), getting drunk at a party on one of his first weekends in college. Kids that young can make some very bad decisions, especially if they have little experience with booze, or even pot. I feel for him, I really do. If I were his parents, I'd be pissed off that no one was watching out for him. Someone on the team should be watching out for these younger guys as well. These guys are way too immature at that age - bound to get in trouble.


I agree, but if I were his dad I would be thinking (not saying out loud), "I hope he was drunk, and not this stupid". I don't believe that the cop arrested him just because the cop was an a-hole. I don't think that cop in Tuscaloosa will stay employed long if they arrest football players for on reason. They know it is going to make the news, and everyone in the world will be looking in to it.

TB seems like a good kid. Even good kids do stupid things. I feel bad for his folks. Their kid getting arrested is bad enough but for it to be all over the news is really bad. I wish TB and his parents well. Maybe as punishment Nick will make him cut that damn hair.
With all the good players leaving after 3 years, their second year is all most as good as it gets. I don't think experience is the problem, I think "who is going to step up' is the question. I look for one or two of these 3 to make that step up: FH, GG, or MB.

LSU could never beat the lesser opponent enough to get the 2nd string QB playing time. Always played down to their level

Rivers will be a great coach on our sidelines next year holding the clipboard and signaling in plays.

I like Rivers. I wish we could have seen more of him the last 2 years. Last year in spring game I thought he play very well. Everybody might think that I am wrong, but I believe that QB's need some game experience to truly have a fair chance to see what they can do. I was glad to see Jennings get a game under his belt before next years first game. I hope Harris is best QB LSU has ever had, but I just don't understand why Les refuses to play second string QB's when the game is in the bag.
quote:

Mett was pretty shitty his junior year. Enter Cam. Jennings was a FR thrown into starting duty. I'd like to see every QB progress and pick the best to start - 8+ months from now.

I agree that Cam helped Mett greatly, but I don't understand why Les will play 4 or 5 RB's every game but will not give second string QBs some meaningful snaps when the game is out of reach.
quote:

Miles will no doubt stay with Jennings. He does not possess the ability to play the better guy. only wants to prove he was right before. This year will be a ckusterfrick of frustration watching Benn struggle and wonder every week why we don't see Rettig or Harris or Rivers.....

I hope you are wrong, but fear you are correct. We have so many QB's, why can't we make a good QB out of one of them?
As I understand it, SEC teams can back count EE's one year if they signed less than 25 in the prior years class. In 2012 and 2013 Rivals shows that Tennessee had 22 each year. If they had at least 3 EE's in 2013 they would have counted them as 2012. Then they could count 6 EE's of the 33 this year as 2013. That gets them to 31. I don't know how far back this 25 limit goes. Rivals numbers could be wrong. They most likely figure a couple want work out and or have the grades.
