    :dis: Daniel and buddy Colt McCoy attended a summer camp in Austin, but UT offensive coordinator Greg Davis told Daniel the Longhorns were more interested in Louisiana hotshot Ryan Perrilloux. Daniel decided to commit to Missouri, the first school that offered him.

    Later that summer, while attending the Elite 11 QB camp in California, Daniel met Perrilloux. They didn't exactly hit it off.

    "I was so tired of hearing him run his mouth," Daniel says. "He was like, 'I'm the best at everything,' so I challenged him."

    "Let's run a 40-[yard dash]," Daniel said to Perrilloux in front of all the other campers. "Back up your talk."

    They raced and Daniel said he beat Perrilloux by two yards. The Louisiana QB said he slipped and asked for a rematch after he put his cleats on.

    "Next time I beat him by a yard," Daniel said with a smile.
    Ironically enough, Perrilloux's waffling between Texas and LSU, where he eventually signed, had UT coaches seeking their own escape routes. That winter, they dialed up Dodge and asked what would happen if they called Daniel.

    Sounds like someone is pissed he is at Mizzou:hihi: congrats on winning the race but that doesnt make your arm any better. Sounds to me that it was just 2 cocky players fighting to be the center of attention. RP seems to have lost most of his cocky attitude, cant say the same for Daniel.

    RP's 40 time has never been his strength. His running ability is based on his elusiveness.

    I don't like Daniel because I can't stand the Southlake Carroll football team he came from. It's an interesting suburb, though, because the average home price is around $500,000.

    Anyway, they act like they own the earth.

    Wait....Am I missing something here? Is RP a WR or something? The guy's a QB, even if he runs a 5 it wont matter. We all know about RP's cockiness, I can remember him saying he can beat both JR and Flynn for the starting position. But I think the guy matured now, and he's going to be alright.

    I'm sure RP was talking $hit, that's probably why they had a race. He probably hasn't lost all his cockiness either, like most people think.

    I'm sure losing the race humbled him a bit...i hope. Some cockiness isn't bad as long as he can back it up, which i'm sure he can.
