    FWIW, WDSU in New Orleans just reported that JR has denied the reports that he's signed an agent...

    Given the source of the rumor, that's worth a lot. Thanks for posting.

    His signing with an agent is probably inevitable, but even a glimmer of hope is nice! AND that would have the added benefit of getting Flynn to transfer already. :hihi:

    I also think JMR respects LSU much more than to leave em hanging without confirming he made the jump...IMO

    Well he could always do what Eli did: pitch a hissy fit in the media and hold out until he got traded to a "better" team. Look how well that went for him. :grin:

    Yeah and all it took was a measly 14 seasons and 4 Super Bowls with Denver to get his first ring (nearly his entire career) :D

    was my first thought but 2 secs later I assumed he meant fred thomas. and if so, he's right. he is average at best. And mccormack I think he means mckenzie. Ill disagree with that b/c he's been a true playmaker the 2nd half of the season.


    Harper was an excellent pick and was the real deal before he got hurt. Safeties are locked up for next year. we questioned his early pick because we werent aware dwight smith was being shipped out. Payton shipped out any non-team players and questionable characters which is a direct result of the success. didnt think character mattered as much over talent in the nfl really. shows what i know.

    No he didn't mean Fred Thomas because he was implying that not all the moves made by the Saints brass were good ones.

    I don't like Bullocks. At all. Achilles heel on our defense. If you can point out a pass breakup or a big ballbusting hit, let me know. In fact, send me a youtube video of it and I will apologize to the young man. He just isn't NFL caliber free safety material.
