    Also....where there any players from those teams on the Walter Camp All America team?

    I believe David Ruffer is up for the Lou Groza Award.

    that's right, good call...and Ty, I don't know if any are, but we'll soon find out--btw, are there any Gators?

    I was not being rude...just asking

    Yes,Chaz Henry

    How long can Corso stay around? He really struggles to get his thoughts out of his mouth.
  • karen lotz
    Ruffer the kicker was robbed. I guess being perfect for your career isn't good enough.



    On a side note, Bailey's girlfriend/sister/whoever was sitting next to his dad was smoking.

    It was tough watching Corso accept the football contributions award and give his speech. He got choked up a few times and Herbstreit had tears rolling down his face too. I'm thinking the last time we see Corso on Gameday will be for the NC game.

    I know you weren't--I didn't mean my post to sound sarcastic, 'cause I was just asking as well...btw, was Eric Page there as the Walter Camp All American kick returner?

    DaQuan is a great guy, and dedicated this season to his father who passed away days before the season started. Having had some classes with him, I can say he is a genuinely nice dude. He also plays guitar in a gospel band which he used to be in with his dad. Dude can shred a guitar. Well done man, sorry we couldn't have a good season for you. Barring the lockout, I expect and hope he leaves to make his millions. He deserves them.

    I watched it live last night, and actually got a little choked up...Herby's tears got to me as well
