[Libero2]

Long but very cool read. Very exciting to see Pugh get his due. Also so excited to see an agents reactions, it's something you almost never hear about.

Also far too long to link here. Enjoy

That is awesome. Hey Pugh - maybe a $100k for the IPF?

Great read - The video of Pugh is even better. The feeling he must of had when he got that call is probably so surreal. The life's worth of hard work and to finally be able to say "I am a NFL player" is awesome, just awesome.

If you finish watching the Pugh video, a group of "recommended" videos pop up. One of them is highlights of Pugh's games against Pitt the last two years. He makes a huge leap in his game from Soph to Junior year.

Agreed. Good kid from a good family. Made a great decision leaving a year early. I am very happy for him and wish him the best with the Giants.

I have been a Jets fan since I was a kid but might have to become a Giants fan...the Syracuse connections are getting too damn strong to ignore. At the least, they are going to be my NFC team to root for.

"Herock is a former executive with the Falcons and Packers, but he's been running the interview training service for well over a decade now and he tells Ross that Pugh is the best interview he's ever had".

My father-in-law (a Jets fan like myself) called me after the draft and asked if I'm becoming a Giants Fan-I wish I could, but once I pick a team, I can't switch. Definitely rooting for all the Cuse guys, though.

I never have changed any of my teams and don't think it is possible for me either. But I can at least root for the Giants when they are playing anyone but the Jets. That will be my intention from this point forward...

One of my favorite parts of the article.
