    Where's Eric Gordon now? He might be able to contribute at safety. Maybe let him backup Brewer and move whoever the SS backup is to FS.

    This isn't his first one.

    Not all of them are on their last chance either.

    Here is a very telling stat for LK's recruiting class of 2009.
    22 players were signed. 11 are still on the team. Incredibly pathetic!

    This thread is an example of what makes this board good. Hanging out with intelligent level headed people rather than sky-is-falling board-blowing-up hysteria.

    Thank You!

    Ken Sparks and his folks are making calls as we speak.

    It's good to see you Pops! I missed your exit from Toos but I'm sure it was entertaining.

    JJ has Grambling or Southern written all over him.

    He also has a good shot of having a 5 digit number on his back.

    Now my final memory of Janzen will be that head first spear of the UNC player which resulted in a 15-yard penalty.

    Pretty much.

    I realize Janzen is likely the best athlete that was on the team, physical freak, etc. But seriously....When I think about Janzen Jackson's 2 years at UT, I think the following things:

    1) Made a couple of memorable hits
    2) Made a few INT's
    3) Missed a crap load of tackles trying to go for the homerun hit.

    It's certainly a loss for the team, but is it a HUGE loss? Worth an extra loss on the overall record? Educate me on why I should be devastated about this news.
    (Besides the human side of the story where he's addicted to substances, which obviously sucks)

    Although disappointing, not all that surprising. I believe the staff was planning to redshirt Brian Randolph, that could be up in the air now. No doubt it will limit the nickel they seemed to be planning heavily on.

    No.

    Moore and Randolph are better choices

    It involved sab, my avatar, and a mod with an attitude.

    Supposedly also failed the one (1) class he took this summer.

    I don't know how much truth there is to that rumor.

    Did anybody really expect him to make it all the way through the season?

    I thought he had an outside chance to make to the Vandy game.

    I honestly thought he had learned his lesson and grown up.

    Shame on me.
