    Martellus Bennett, Aggy freshman TE recruited by LSU


    Why didn't he sign with the Tigers ? He was obviously born to be an aggy. :hihi:

    From a football player I think that response is very witty.

    Hey, he's getting plenty of PT in College Station.

    Sure, his team just got crushed by Iowa freaking State (sorry, Hawker45), but at least MB isn't getting a redshirt.

    He had a couple of receptions last week in the loss.

    Ryan Perrilloux text messaged him WHILE he was on air announcing his decision trying to get him to change his mind...

    If you rewatch tape of it, you can actually hear his ringtone in the background...

    A big factor was basketball...
    I don't think LSU was going to let him play both sports

    I didn't think that it was LSU "not letting him", but rather John Brady not being interested... same effect, but I think that's actually what happened.

    You're right..

    I didn't phrase it right...

    When I meant "didn't let," John Brady didn't look his way, which is weird, because I would think that the mailman would be better than some of the guys on our benches in year's past
