Number change for Bowman?

Can anyone confirm that Navarro Bowman has changed his number to #11? I heard it was at the request of his mentor. If this happens to be correct, I expect we will see a flood of new and old #11 jerseys. Not like this will be a bad thing. I might even have to replace my #19 (Garrity, Greg) jersey from years back. Everyone knows that I like to stay up to date on stuff like that.

Do you really have a Greg Garrity jersey?

If so, you’re my hero. Especially if you rock it with a Garrity Stache. And double especially if you lay out for diving receptions in tailgate throwarounds.

It doesn’t sound like Lavar to request it of Lavorro. But I can see Lavorro thinking it would be cool and then respectfully asking Lavar’s blessing. And Lavar also thinking it would be cool and cool that he asked, so he granted it. And then…well, it could go on.

Anyway, that’s how I picture it going down, if it did. And I’m an advocate of the asking for a blessing, vs. asking permission. Before I proposed to my wife, I asked her father for his blessing, but didn’t feel right or oldschool enough to ask for his permission. PSUnc, do you have a preference?

I read that

Lavar asked him to wear his number and Bowman was happy to, and also 1+1=2 which was his HS number and wants to wear that to in a way honor his HS coach who has passed away, thats what it said in the paper.

yes

Unless the paper completely fabricated a quote by Bowman himself, and thereby an entire story.

It's confirmed

He wants to honor his mentor and super-freak LB LaVar. “LaVorro” will follow in the footsteps of Arrington…sucks for him that GWH, Sean Lee is back for his 2nd Senior season and will grab a lot of the headlines…maybe we can have the LaVorro Leap…nice.

11 is the 31…for athletic Linebackers that is.

Rambler Wishes He Was Puz

(the following liberally bitten from gump4heisman):
Don’t sit there and fucking lie. Don’t even act, for one second, like you’ve never gazed into the handsome wonder that is Paul Posluszny’s face and thought ‘That guy gets more skirt-warmth during one tv timeout than I got my Freshmen-to-Junior years.’

Go ahead. Stare. It isn’t gay. It’s actually quite the opposite.

Imagine showing up for work and your boss saying:

"OK Rambler, what we need you to do today is to go to the beach, get some barbeque and be good-looking, however white, while you eat it. Oh, and be sure to play plenty of football, become the all-time PSU leader in tackles, make millions of dollars, and make your selection of plenty of NFL and PSU groupies. Anyway, here’s your hotel key and a few extra copies for any big busty sluts that happen to throw themselves in the general vicinity of your cock during the upcoming Thursday-Sunday time frame."

I'm not sure

If you could have found lower quality youtube clips.

He was so good

that film itself could not capture his greatness (in a higher resolution)
