And another thing.. people of today just love to nit pick and hate. They love to try to pick out any negatives to deny someone of greatness. Well his on the field strengths were out-standing. He was a game changer of another kind..

Oh and like I said a heisman finalist as a sophomore is rare enough.. But as a DEFENSIVE player..

Also Defensive Players of the Year in the SEC as a sophomore. Yeah.. he's over-rated. Get real.

Building on this, it is like saying that Ashton Eaton sucks at track and field because he can't beat Usain Bolt in the 100.

You can be a helluva sprinter in the 100 and not be Bolt. There is more to football than being an elite cover guy. If he wasn't in the uppermost echelon of cover guys, he was in the upper echelon. I think there is much truth in your post.

I've watched LSU closely since 1973.
He is EASILY the most dynamic playmaker/gamechanger/"wtf did I just see" guy to wear an LSU uniform during that time.
He did things I have NEVER SEEN BEFORE, on any level, and he did them regularly.
To suggest he is overrated is to disrespect the game itself.
Beyond hackish and ignorant.
