    2010's player to watch besides Russell?

    If you're talking about kick returns, I think it had more to do with putting Bumphis back there with him... (I don't remember Bumphis being on kick return early on) Bumphis, as good as he was at other things, can't block for ****. I guess that's to be expected with a true fresh WR.

    Time for a dramatic position change....

    and that's not a nock on him as a RB. On special teams he seems to fly all over the field. He seems to be in on every tackle/play on ST. I don't think he's a bad RB (good, not great), just has potential to be a really good S. Anyone else seeing this, or do I just remember a few key plays? Maybe...

    New orleans Saints news....The rumor out of the big easy is the Saints will pick Beanie Wells as

    New orleans Saints news....The rumor out of the big easy is the Saints will pick Beanie Wells as No comparing the two. Eddie George was known for his great work ethic, Wells, not so much. His character, toughness, and commitment have continually been questioned. You can only have so many prima...

    New orleans Saints news....The rumor out of the big easy is the Saints will pick Beanie Wells as

    New orleans Saints news....The rumor out of the big easy is the Saints will pick Beanie Wells as corner, safety, LB, whoever is the best player available. Jenkins if he's still there, otherwise maybe a LB, don't think there is a safety worth a early 1st rounder. And even better if they can...

    not sure if this has been discussed but...

    the big difference, and I'm not defending stallworth at all, is that one was done on purpose with intent, and one was an accident as a result of a poor decision.

    There is a thread on UK's board about Stansbury...

    oh, I'm not doubting stans wouldn't leave for the ky job (who wouldn't), I'm doubting ky would take him. He'd probably even be reasonably successful there, but KY isn't going to hire a coach who hasn't had a team in the top 25 in what, 5 yrs?

    There is a thread on UK's board about Stansbury...

    The chance of Stans being hired as UK head coach are about the same as mine. Stans is a good, solid coach.... good, not great. He does some things well, but he definately has his faults. I realize that hurts some of y'all's feelings, but its the truth. I think the reason he gets so much...

    well, time to figure out who is going to transfer...

    Stans is just really SLOW to make adjustments. This is part of why we never play up to potential early in the year and pay for it later. Also I think this is why we seem to play well in the sec tourney (we've already played them) and so bad in the big tourney. We don't usually play well against...

    Off topic for today but... Saints sign Darren Sharper

    Good move, Bullocks/KK were awful. And I hope they're not counting on Morgan. If he shows up, its a bonus, but I'm not expecting much. Randall Gay is a serviceable cb too. I think you gotta draft the OSU cornerback (Jenkins?) if he's there. At best Sharper's only gonna give us a couple of years...

    Unsung hero of our run so far.........

    Ran... I mean Barry, seems to be playing within the offense more and taking what is given. Before he just seemed to always want to force things.

    Kodi

    Kodi is much more mobile and a better ball handler, but he's got nothing on charles down low. They're really two totally different types of players. Better outside shooter and more versatile definately. But Rhodes was a beast down low. When he was on there was simply no stopping him on the...

    Just watched game (tivo). Big props to Turner

    Great D on Tyler. Really took him out of his game. they tried to post him up and turner completely shut that down, at least 2 blocks in that situation. By the end you could tell he didn't even want to try and post up. And there is no one on this team I'd rather have at the line in crunch time. I...

    Boy, I'm not real comfortable with Beckham running the show....I know Dee has to

    reminds me of one of those old guys you play with at a rec center... good defender, descent passer and ball handler, but absolutely ZERO threat to score. Having said that I think he does an ok job running the offense (Don't forget, he's just a freshmens), and plays good defense.

    latest New Orleans Saints news.... and link

    I realize that's not a big secret, but if they don't get some upgrade at safety, it doesn't matter who else they sign. I went to just about all the home games, and their safeties are just turrible. They give them nothing, no deep help, no run support, nothing (don't get me started on bullocks)...

    I can't see why you want stewart to take the last shot at both the end of reg. & OT2

    I can't see why you want stewart to take the last shot at both the end of reg. & OT2 On almost any other team, the guy is a role player. He's a good 'glue' guy. A guy you need on your team, solid guy, but should NEVER have to carry the team. Most of the time when he tries to do this, he...
