    Big loss, O'Cyrus was a one-of-a-kind type player. Interestingly, he was a three-star recruit coming out of high school and was recruited to Louisiana–Lafayette by Coach Napier who developed him into the player he is today. His other offers were Louisiana Tech, Louisiana–Monroe, South Alabama, Southern Mississippi, and Middle Tennessee. The only power 5 to offer was Georgia.

    Old coach ftom Clempson, Danny Ford, once said he would rather have an offensive line than a QB. I don’t believe that's far from being right about winning football games.

    Yeah...an O-line full of beasts it the real deal. For some reason, I don't remember Georgia's QB getting sacked a lot. If ever!! Big ass road graders are needed. Napier is no fool on that one...

    He's got a fever and he knows the prescription is for more um... Big uglies :rolleyes::p

    Go Gators.:)

    Donnie had something for those semi's in the sugar bowl. Watching him throughout the game he was flat getting after those pricks.

    This is what is so annoying about the people who worry so much about what these click farm recruiting services rank our commits. It's all about whether a staff can evaluate, not whether a website has assigned make believe ratings.
