Re: Aaron Ernest ... should we?
Trindon Holliday (LSU alum) was a true track guy who for a brief moment or two, was a dangerous punt returner up until the fumbles came... then out of football.

Bullet Bob Hayes is in the HOF, has a Super Bowl Ring, and in the Cowboys Ring of Honor. Gault had a pretty decent career with Da Bears & Raiders.

I'll have to find it in the VHS cache, maybe SI's Crunch Course, one of those old 80s NFL videos has player interviews about Renaldo Nehemiah...
They show the play where the defense set him up for their safety (Bears?) to lay the wood on him straight up - would be called targeting today... Either way, they hit him so hard he took the pads off and quit after that... |
