New Blog: Voodoo Five for South Florida Bulls Fans!

My favorite story involved a defensive coach for one team asking Ohio State linebacker James Laurinaitis why they should pick him. "Tell me something,'' the coach said. "When is the last time a linebacker from Ohio State came to the NFL and was worth a s---?'' That shook the Buckeye out of whatever confident zone he might have entered the room in.

Come to think of it, he makes a good point. A.J. Hawk has been OK, but nothing spectacular, and he followed the likes of Bobby Carpenter and Andy Katzenmoyer.

LOL! That's great!!

He said what we’ve all been thinking for awhile! Add James Laurinaitis to the list of players’ names that were mentioned after AJ Hawk in the article.
