Re: Family and friends laud LSU cornerback Tyrann Matheiu's landing in Arizona
Hopefully loosing that year of football was enough of a shock to make him sirting out his life.
Baby steps so far but so far so good. |

Coming from a hardcore Bama fan... that comment is much respected. For two years at LSU, he was one of the dominating players I've ever seen on the field ever... at least on the defensive side.

I'm scared now. Because it's reality now. I don't ever want to feel like this again. I'm not going to feel like this again." I've heard numerous versions of this same statement. Unfortunately many slip and start using again. He has an opportunity to inspire a lot of people. I'll still rag on him for the cheap shot on Kirkpatrick tho. |
