    Will soon have a Super Bowl ring to go with his BCS ring. I still see him as a talent gone to waste....had he kept his nose clean at LSU, he probably would have been a first-day draft choice and at the very least, be on an active roster by now. Instead, he's been bouncing on and off a practice roster. But he's an undeniable talent and seems to be maturing. He also remains a South Louisiana homebody, and I can't help but wonder (he can't say it out loud at this point, of course) if he secretly wishes for an opportunity with the black and gold.

    Many of our fans still hate on him but he played a big role in our last BCS championship. I think our coaching staff made the right decision in letting him go when they did.

    It does seem like he's matured somewhat and I wish him the best. I do recall that he said the right things after LSU cut him loose.

    I didn't know practice squad players got rings. I guess they're technically part of the team, but I thought you had to be on the active roster.

    Does that mean that Chad Jones gets one too?
