Met him and the other Heisman contenders while in New York on a work related trip. They were all in the same hotel as my group was. Got a chance to talk to him Sat. nite about 2 hours after he won the trophy. His quote was that OU would hang 45 on our Defense w/o any problem, and that they would have to shut down their offense. What do my fellow Tiger fans feel about his prediction?
Wait a second... Isn't this the 3rd or 4th person that supposedly "met" Jason White in New York on business and this is what he told them? Jesus f'ing Christ, people! Give it a rest... That's like saying that Matt Mauck would publicly say that stupid sh*t!
I am the one putting this out, and I promise you it happened. Wish I could verify it better for you, but about 20 people with my group from New Orleans heard the words come out of his mouth.
I ran into Nick Saban a couple of weeks ago while jogging around the Lakes. He told me that OU would be lucky to get a first down on the LSU defense, let alone score any points. That's what I told all the OU people anyway.
Geauxsooners, I don't think Nick would say that but otherwise I think your statement is accurate and speaks for itself.
Oh man, I didn't mean to start all of that! I mean, listen to Jason White talk. Read his interviews. He's a good, down home kid. Now, he may have said that, and if it comes out that he did, then Capt Fun, I am sorry I doubted you... But I'm gonna have to go with what I've seen from this kid, that's not his style.
look, i haven't heard him say it again, and it may have been the cold ones he was consuming talking for him..hell we have all done that...just curious about what people think. I am also glad to hear our boys presented themselves good today in the press conferance...
If he did say it, especially after a few beers as you suggest, I'm sure he meant it as alittle harmless smack. Similar to what a few fans might do. Of course he is the Heisman Trophy winner and a representative of OU. If he said it, I doubt he said it in a manner where he would expect to see it on an internet message board. Everything I've seen from the guy is class. I've never heard him disrespect an opponent in a public forum.
Puh-lease stop with this BS You're beginin' to piss me off. Accusin' Jason of talkin' trash is jest not right, so you better stop it, ya' hear?
GeauxSooners...you are probably right, but I just haven't seen our boys doing this in any forum, especially to OU fans...
