    Correct. Only islstl pounds this propaganda. Russell was an honor student here. The fact that he mumbles merely puts him in the same vocal class as Shaq. Clearly he has not acted intelligently and made poor choices, like Big Macs over running the stadium, but it was never hinted that he was dumb at LSU.



    Obsession can be an ugly thing when the light is shined on it.

    Show me your mock draft post where he was a 2nd round pick.

    You eat the media cheese way too much for me to believe that. I am sure with digging I can find something about how you thought he'd be a good pro.

    This guys main problem is his family, they basically run everything in his life. Why would you put people in charge who have no experiences managing your money and your career. There is no self-motivation nor any positive outside motivation in this situation. If he is 300 lbs now, consider how big he will get when he isnt "playing football" which will be soon.

    You're dead on here. He spoke lots about Russel being the best qb in the draft that year. Before the bowl games, he said that Quinn would be the only one with a chance to be drafted before Russell. He said that if Russell could have a great bowl game against Quinn though that he would be drafted before Quinn. Also talked a lot about how well suited JR was for the combine and Quinn was not. He had JR as no worse than the 10th pick of the first round, going to the Dolphins.
