Love me some Rohan, one of my all-time favorite Tigers. I'll never forget the Alabama game when he and Josh Reed combined for about 300yds passing. Reed was open all night.
I was at a party where Reed showed up right after that game...or maybe it was the day after, I can't really remember. (College does that to the best of us ;-)) He was a really nice guy...down to earth and soft-spoken. Humble, despite the fact that everybody treated him like a celebrity
You're right. Too bad he didn't crack the top ten in yards and beat our championship QB's passer rating. Oh, wait...
