I assume for the same reason they tried so hard to get Rashard Robinson to play last year. As for Gilmore and Bain, old guys are passed up every year by new guys. Avery Petersen was supposed to be pretty special, but Trey Quinn gets the start versus Wisconsin.
It's so early in the season, can't anyone have a little patience before declaring who is good or bad. Let's wait until indian has played a stout team or two before classifying guys a successes or failures.
Last year there were 24 players that didn't see action in the TCU game, those 24 played later on in the season, I agree, lets get a little deeper into the season. A few that didn't play for the TCU game, a few names you might remember, Bower, Hill, RR and Pocic. Bower played Sat night, Hill is now playing in the Pro's, RR gave Mike Evans fits last year and Pocic, was your starter at center Sat night. So, long season, we'll see who gets a little playing time next game.
I just bought a #18 jersey a Walmart. I'm about to text the Saints a picture of me wearing it. Hope they'll give me a shot.
Takes a littler more than that, teams are looking for anything. Odds are a guy that wore #18 at LSU won't give problems off or on the field
