    Hell yeah, this guy was a huge late pickup, most other fans laughed it off because they thought he would never get eligible. This guy is massive, he already has the size to play, he is one of only a few true freshman who I think could play this year for us.

    Lots of people around Florida were raving about him, and then after his performance in the CalFlorida bowl they were convinced he was for real. Ricky has overcome a huge obstacle, and now LSU will reap the benefits from investing confidence in him when other schools had their doubts (like Culpepper). He more than proved he's exceptional on the h.s. level on the DL. I wonder if he can be one of those hybrid players and help out w/ the depth at LB. Either way he's a monster and that Jean-Francois lettering on the back of a purple/gold jersey will fit in just fine.

    He's going to make Ray Lewis look like a punk when he's done.

    I think half of my graduating class has the last name Francois so playing in South Florida he would've felt right at home. Glad he is with us though.

    In my opinion, Jean and Francois are great names.
