    Whites just trying to go out a winner and 100% focused in his final game as a tiger. He's smart for enjoying it til it's officially over. He surely doesn't want to think about his projection of going to Cincinnati until he has to.

    But he's gonna go and I'm gonna miss him. He didn't have the year he should have however. One more year could fix that.

    Great story, too bad none of it's true. Kevin Faulk was a 2nd round pick, #46 to the Patriots. Faulk had more rushing & receiving yards as a Senior & posted the exact same 5.6 yards per carry he did as a Junior.

    The guy who left early, Faneca, knew to strike while the iron was hot. He was a 9x Pro Bowler & 6x All-Pro. Kevin Faulk was neither.

    Trev Faulk has made himself into a pretty successful high school football coach in south LA. Not trying to prove anything here, just didn't know if you knew that.

    Is it Carencro? I knew he was coaching somewhere and I get your point. Mine was about the league. Everyone is freaking out as if it's all or nothing for White.

    It was Kevin Faulk who coached Carencro.

    Agree. He’s just waiting until after the bowl game, a. to stay focused, and, b. to go out with class.

    Lafayette Christian; he's building them into the next Evangel. Actually, I had no point; your point on their NFL success was obvious. I just thought you might not know what he's doing now.

    If he stays, I hope he will eventually be rewarded for it

    He is a smart kid and a good character. If he gets injured and can't play anymore I'm sure he would be taken care of with a good job either in the athletic department or in the business community.

    Still it would be a crying shame if he didn't get a shot at fulfilling his potential at the next level. Who knows, he might be the next Dick Butkus, Mike Singletary, Jack Lambert or Lawrence Taylor.
