    I heard he gets pretty "fired up", i.e. violent at times.Not towards women or anything, just a little like a loose cannon. Is that true?

    I don't know his exact grades. But its no secret that he dosen't have the best scores. Then again thats what they make tuitors for.

    Auburn isn't losing much on the d-line this year. He knows that.

    Who knows, he could still change his mind with the way this recruiting business is handled these days.

    Very true. This is the funniest years of recruiting I have ever seen.

    Well, if he ends up going JUCO, all bets are off anyway. Thats what Im worried about. I could see him going JUCO, then after a year or two, end up at....heaven forbid, Auburn. :wink:

    You would think these bozos who know they are going to be going to college to play football, would make an attempt to study and learn something so they could get into college.

    It's possible LSU could have him for only one year. Go to JUCO for 2 years come to LSU then go to the draft. Somebody like this will want to get out of school as soon as possible. What's another $200K potential in salary gain for staying for a senior season? "Everbody saw how good I am, see my speed, why take a risk of getting hurt and losing in the draft."

    That's amazing that somebody can weigh 300+ and run 4.8. How is this possible?

    I dont think there is any question he is headed JUCO. I read a quote from his HS coach that said he didnt have much choice and was already planning for it.

    Auburn DC Gene Chizik has been hired as DC for Texas...I think I have a better idea as to why Auburn didn't get Powe. :dis:
