Let me say that I thought the sucker punch from LeGarrette Blount after the BSU game was one of the most chicken-shit things I've seen on or off the football field. Blount was of course suspended, but continued to practice with the team and was eventually reinstated, although he still didn't play much. Coach Peterson said that he had no problem with giving him a second chance with the reinstatement.

So, here are highlights of Blount's junior season. He is listed at 6'2" and 240. He runs very fast for a guy this size. Fast forward through the 1st 30 seconds, it's just Oregon pr. Watch the play at about 2:35. Notice all the runs in the red zone. I think, if it weren't for the punch, he would be a 1st or 2nd round pick. Anyone have an opinion?

No doudt the kid has a million dollar body, but he has a nickle brain. One of the things our RBs have to do is block which is mental, which I doubt he can handle. Plus he doesn't get by McNairs smell test.
