LSU has dominated the ACC historically. The Tigers are going to raw-dog unc. I am looking at 30-13 or so. Book it.

They way you two are making him sound like he needed to be wooed, that he needed comfort, that he needed the attention, it makes Drew look soft.

---

Some could say he needed to be wooed..he did not get recruited out of texas bec of a torn that he was rehabbing during his JR year. So that could have some merit.

I guess that I chose to look at the situation as drew wanted to "go to war" with someone that he felt had his back"

and

At the chargers he struggled with a split front office and coaching staff..He didnt want to go into a situation where he had to deal with that again from the get go..

The conversation that i described above happens on pg 104 in DB's book. And the portion of it is entitled "The Call" This takes place after he flys to Miami to meet Wayne and Nick.

Drew is expressing to his agent(TOM) that on his trip to Nola everyone was warm and genuine and he felt like from the beginning they believed in him. On his trip to FL he felt as if he needed to win them over on convince them that he was good enough for them.

His agent then told DB, "Look I have seen this before they are going to call you and tell you that the physicals didnt turn out well and they will threated to pull the offer from you"(Tom, Agent) Within 24hours DB says Miami does infact call him and say this very thing to him.

So THEN after that DB says to his agent..Before I make my decision I have to make a call first.. so he picks up the phone and calls The Dolphins front office.. he said he had to know where they really stood. He says "I know what they told my agent, but that could of been a bargaining stragety, what going through coach saban's brain in Miami" These are DB's words in the book.

So then he calls Nick and says this to him "I heard that my medical reports came back and your doc didnt like what they saw" At that point..Nick beings to say he doesnt know who to trust and they are professionals and they know how to interpet tests and tells him the number will have to change and that Drew has to understand the Dolphins situation."

Drew takes a deep breath and says "Coach, I know what your Docs believe about me, but my question is what do you believe. Do you believe I can come back and be better than I was before and lead your team to a championship?" Then there is a really short sentence simply...

Nick Saban Paused.

Drew then says that was all he neeed to hear. His pause told me everything,,,Drew does go on to say that nick began to talk but he says that he really tuned him out and just waited for a chance to break in..thats when he just tells nick..im going to nola..etc etc ..click..
