This gives new meaning to Roll Tide

Someone else pointed out that if you make his nipples his eyes and his belly button a mouth, his torso bears a striking resemblance to the aliens on Sesame Street.

Umm, you might just wanna keep your blouse on...

Gah.

[WolverineSteve]

what an athlete.

[Van]

Sam, between diabetes, high blood pressure and the wear and tear an NFL career puts on a player's body I highly doubt this guy will live to see your age.

Btw, only 19 reps of 225 lbs, in the bench press? USC's place kicker did much better than that at the combine. Seriously.

"Kickers aren't required to lift at the NFL Combine, but Buehler did -- outperforming many linebackers, tight ends and even offensive linemen. He bench pressed 225 pounds 25 times in a row -- which would have made him the strongest cornerback, second-strongest wide receiver, third-strongest safety, fourth-strongest tight end, sixth-strongest running back and eighth-strongest linebacker at the weeklong event. He actually lifted more than a couple linemen who are projected as first-round picks.

His strong legs are also quick legs. Buehler ran a pair of unofficial 40-yard dashes in 4.56 and 4.63 seconds, easily ranking among the best tight ends, linebackers and broadcasters."

(He wasn't the greatest FG kicker ever but he is the best kickoff guy I'ver ever seen. Regular followers of USC football enjoyed the fact that rarely was a USC kickoff ever returned, since the majority of Buehler's kickoffs either reached the back of the end zone or they completely cleared the end zone. The opponent nearly always had to start from the 20 yard line. This guy has an even bigger leg than Sebastian Janikowski.)

With Smith first bailing on the combine and then not being in the top 10 in any of his drills during his pro day it sure would seem that Smith's draft day stock has got to be plummeting.

He may not make it as a pro, but he sure did a helluva job protecting Wilson.

It was just those weak Meatgrinder pass rushes.

:P

Carlisle does a great job whipping those boys in to shape

Dude, c'mon, Pac 10 placekickers are more badass than Meatgrnder All American linemen!

Ricky Jean Francois LePew would've been shaking in his pantaloons if he would've had to line up across from our kicker!

[Shoalzie]

RACK it...

Can't believe I wanted that guy with the #1 pick following the college season. :doh:

Only when they go to U$C... the PRO football team...a.k.a. "The LA Toejams"






No cheating going on here...

Yeah, someone please tell me that's natural. What a load of horse shit. That fucking guy is on something and anyone who says he's not probably believes Tony Mandarich was all natural too.
It's funny I just showed my 9 year old the first picture then the second one and asked him how someone gets that big. He didn't hesitate....steroids dad.........so if a 9 year old can figure that out why can't the NCAA?

[WolverineSteve]

he had to grow into those tits.

[Van]

Yep, and nobody at Cal, ND, Florida, Ohio St or Texas looks similarly rocked up. It's just Brian Cushing.

Baaaaad Cushing!

Btw, what does the NCAA even have in place at the moment, in terms of drug testing?

[The Seer]

...so if a 9 year old can figure that out why can't the NCAA?

Because they don't want to.

It's been pretty well documented that Cushing was juicing up, and they are right, there are lots of kids doing it. I must say it is a lot easier to tell when a white kids is juicing than any other race.

I know lots of NFL or college might try and turn a blind eye to things like this but it doesn't make much sense, especially a pro team, because there are lots of guys who will do it just to sign a huge contract and then go off turning them into the shitty athlete they really are, and making the pro franchise regret signing said athlete to huge contract to begin with.

Is college drug testing the same as the NFL, where they only test for shit nobody even uses anymore? People keep talking about steroids but last I heard nobody who plays in drug testing leagues uses steroids anymore. Everybody is now using HGH and nobody even tests for HGH.

Then there's the fact that athletes are way ahead of the curve, in terms of knowing how to mask their drug test results.

Anybody here know anything about how (or if) the NCAA tests for drugs? I really don't.

No doubt, though, that "juicing" of some sort or another is rampant among football players, from high school on up.

Because said 9 year old has been programmed by dad to hate everything USC

I'm not sure if it is a Big 12 thing or NCAA thing or if it is school by school but I know that Texas has testing at the beginning and end of the year with like 3 random tests throughout the season. In the 99 cotton bowl Texas lost like 4 guys to the end of the season drug test.

I have no idea what they are tested for outside of illegal drugs like MJ crack and the like.
