LOL...RAY RICE intro

[CuseOnly]

does not say Rutgers University, he introduces himself not from Rutgers but New Rochelle High School.

Has this always been the case? Just curious how recruits would view this intro.

I laughed out loud when he said it.

i think this has to do with the AD firing over the Rice situation -

I love it. Someone on the Rutty board posted, " Guess everyone pretty much knows hes a Rutgers guy, he wanted to give a shoutout to his hometown."

It is likely the last sentence is true about the shoutout, however, Rutgers is by no means well known.

Good thing I have a nice pair of glasses watching every post I make. I am clearly detrimental to this board and warrant watching.

If recruits are weighing where they go to school based on someone saying his HS versus his college, gut says we would never, ever get that kid any way. Seems like an absolutely silly-ass metric to weigh "OHHH, he said his High School...DEMERIT to the college!"

Think about it...

Their best most high profile recruit and player won't acknowledge that he went to Rutgers...the one they hang their hat on for everything...

Insignificant, I think not.

I don't recall saying that recruits will change their minds based on this. I think it is interesting.

Almost as silly as the amount of "love" a recruit gets on Twitter or how many letters he gets in the mail???

Never take sides against the .A.M.I.L.Y.

Eh, not really. If he had said "should have went to syracuse university"

Then you'd have something

 

[KaiserUEO]

players have been doing it for years.

especially stars where everyone knows they went.

he owes it to his town, they really did him right this off season.

its a great shout out.

While I admittedly don't follow the NFL like I used to, I've never heard of someone mentioning their high school unless they didn't go to college.

 

[CuseOnly]

It apparently irked a few Rutgers folks based on the article below and did not go unnoticed.

I've heard other guys do it. I think I heard Dwight Freeney do it one time.

Many have said their hometown over the years. And they cannot enter the draft until they are 3 years out of high school. The only player who I have ever heard of that didn't go to college is Brian Banks - he just got cut this year after being in prison for 5 years after being falsely accused of a crime while in high school.

Wasn't there a Syracuse local that didn't go to college but made the NFL after playing semi-pro for a few years? I wanna say he was a d-lineman that played for Pittsburgh in the '80 or early 90's. I could also be smoking something funny.

Ray Seals, right?

 

[sufandu]

Ray Seals, right?

Phew, whatever I'm smoking isn't all that funny. Thanks. I couldn't think of who it was. I remembered he played for the Steelers at some point but couldn't remember when and couldn't remember any other teams he played for.

 

[KaiserUEO]

how have people not heard a million guys do that?

i really hate the animated head thing they do during the games. you think it's an old fashioned head shot then the guy blinks or turns his head. freaks me out everytime

seriously.

im kind of drawn to that head thing in a macabre way.

i stare right at it and when he finally blinks or shifts his head a fraction of an inch, i jump inside a bit.

some players are better at this than others. i bet this is also talked about in locker rooms.

i already know what i'd do

start looking off to the side. do an awkward half smile with your mouth slightly open on the bottom of your face and (this is key) maintain a soulless dead inside expression in your eyes. (this is somewhat tricky as smiling causes squinting - avoid this). then turn your head slowly to face the camera.

when my wife comes to her senses and leaves me, the thousand times i've done this to her will be a big reason why

 

[KaiserUEO]

we will see what 2013 brings, but Eli was the King of is it a picture or is it live???

5 or 6 seconds of nothing and then just a slight head tilt.

always with that im putting 1 over on you and you dont know it look, which people are beginning to catch on to.

If you get 3 or more starters who went to Ohio State, you miss about 5 plays of the game.

Donte Whitner, strong safety, the...wait 30 seconds...Ohio State University.

Eric Swann was another guy who didn't play college ball but made it to the league ... he took a semi-pro road after high school.

which just drives Al Michaels nuts.

u can feel him lose his patience as hes holding his breath just dying to say 'hand off to hynoski, gain of 2, maybe 3.'

its not radio Al, we all saw what happened. its ok.
