I'm starting to think this guy ain't that bright

Along with two of his famous friends, comedians Theo Von and Nate Bargatze, Pavia went to work in making it happen.

"I didn't know until about the second quarter that Diego was in the stands," Curtis told ESPN. "I went up and talked to him and introduced myself, and then we started texting."

During a few videoconferences, Pavia and the comedians persuaded Curtis to visit Vanderbilt and meet Lea and Beck


At the NFL combine in late February, Pavia told reporters that Curtis told him, "I'm going to win the national championship that you couldn't win."

"I hope they keep soaring through the roof, and then next year, they go 12-0 and then go to the playoffs," Pavia said.

That will be a tall task as the Commodores have to replace more than Pavia. They also lost four starting offensive linemen, star tight end Eli Stowers and leading receiver Tre Richardson, who transferred to Louisville.

I'm so glad we play them next year, and at home to boot. I'm still slightly salty about them chickening out of playing us in 2020.

Why would Theo do that? He’s an LSU fan and even went there for a little bit.
