Arnold is great, easily the best interviewee on the Bama squad. He obviously recognizes McConkey is a very good receiver

He's white, so he reminds me of white guys that play football. Like a lot of his comments, but it's funny how Ladd is compared to guys that honestly are not as athletically gifted as he is.

Good grief, man. The kid was trying to be complimentary of McConkey. Don’t take it so seriously. His comments don’t require a full analysis.

That’s how Georgia fans are. They don’t just have a pathological need for validation from other people/fans, they have these narratives they create in their heads that you also have to validate, otherwise you’re “disrespecting” them or something. “The East hasn’t been down” “UGA does things the “right way”” “compare my receiver to one closer to the same height”
And this is how UT fans are. Injecting their irrelevant opinions. Fitting, coming from an irrelevant program. Haven't even won the east since 2007
All while their rivals are more successful, play more meaningful games, and win championships.

I'm not knocking Terrion Arnold more than I'm knocking 99% of the lazy comps given (by everyone talking to the media) for a player like Ladd McConkey.
Arnold isn't the only one doing it.
McConkey isn't even a slot receiver but the majority of the comps are shifty little white slot receivers.
Edit: ddsrevenge knew the issue before even clicking the link.
All of you that are shook should be laughing. It is so predictably wrong.

Seems like a pretty sharp kid.

He's more athletically gifted than the person that was used as a reference... The same person that played QB in college? Then became a household name because of his exploits in the NFL and was instrumental in winning several Superbowls. That guy?

Do you want to side by side 40 times and 3 cone?
Then yes.

Really? You would have liked the story. There were no big words in it... in fact no words at all. But you had to show that arse... nice.
... still melting, day 27.

I hate Bama but I love Terrion Arnold. I heard him give an interview on Sirius XM college show a few months ago. Funny kid and seems like a good dude.

Lighten up, it's nothing more than an off the cuff interview where a player from the opposing team praised one of UGA's great players.

Who would you compare him to?

Let’s turn the tables:
Ladd Says: Normally people aren’t taking shots with 5-foot-9 black guys, but I mean he’s open. He’s open, the dude is a gamer.
What happens then?

I'm old, but I see Fred Biletnikoff when I watch Ladd. Runs great, crisp patterns and catches the ball.

I was laughing at the predictability of it.

It is funny to me.

Does Bama know that McConkey used to play QB?
Last year Kirby made a comment that his route running ability reminded him of old #19.
Everyone in the room thought he was comparing him to Bowers until Kirby clarified that Hines Ward wore #19 when he played at Georgia.

Terrion always has good interviews. The guy is pretty funny, with an infectious personality

Who cares what Tom Arnold thinks about college football?
