What would that be worth? The goal is 4 new defensive players with 2 #1 and 2 #2 round picks. Sorry Mike the Tiger.

See, Miles and LSU media blitz proclaimed he was the greatest before he earned the title... He wasn't even performing as the best back at LSU when he left... And now he's got that water weight... |

He was absolutely the best back in the country as a sophomore, and the only reason he didn't win the Heisman is because he didn't have a QB, and thus LSU didn't win enough games to get him the votes. He was every bit what we thought he could be during that time. He also ran for a thousand yards as a freshman, despite not being a full time starter til about midway through the season. Last year, he was hurt. And yet, he STILL ran all over people when he was on the field, even though it wasn't at the level of the previous year. Yes, Derrius Guice was outperforming him this past year. Derrius Guice was healthy. Guice also is probably the new title holder of best RB in the NCAA. So to make Fournette out to be some over-hyped media darling is not fair, or accurate, in my humble opinion. |

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.

Ethan Pocic is just the opposite. may not be the most gifted player out there but he has the smarts and attitude to make up for it. So if my assumption is right about SP view point on LSU players, he is an option. |
