Lol, he used to be the best interview eversometime this hour or next not sure but he scheduled to be on the radio show.
Lol, he used to be the best interview ever
Reporter: how do you find yourself in the right place at the right time so often
Lavonte: the coaches, they tell me to watch the ball and wherever the ball goes, just go there. And then when I get there, I tackle the guy who has the ball. The coaches want me to tackle the guy with the ball so I tackle the guy with the ball.
I still remember Bo refusing to give him props after the first few games, saying he isn't making the right reads. Then that criticism ceased, but David was still producing at the same high level.He's maybe the best pro player we've produced in decades. Guy is a stud.
Iirc, Bo didn't even want him.I still remember Bo refusing to give him props after the first few games, saying he isn't making the right reads. Then that criticism ceased, but David was still producing at the same high level.
That play against OSU was a game changer,( also Braxton getting hurt), I cant remember a play where a guy just willed the ball away like that.I still remember Bo refusing to give him props after the first few games, saying he isn't making the right reads.

He had a key 4th down stop against Penn State when they were trying to come back at the end of the game.That play against OSU was a game changer,( also Braxton getting hurt), I cant remember a play where a guy just willed the ball away like that.

He was a package with that big JUCO OT Yoshi Hardrick. They wanted Hardrick, had to take David with him.
Hardrick was built like a moose. This huge box of a body and this long, lanky legs.
We sure found a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow on that one.
The Bucs also now have Shaq Barrett, who could have been David’s replacement at NU if Bo had returned his phone call. He’s not at David’s level, but still carving out a nice career as an NFL LB.Iirc, Bo didn't even want him.
Ndamukong? Yeah going with Ndamukong.He's maybe the best pro player we've produced in decades. Guy is a stud.
Bo Pelini. The gift that kept giving and giving long after he was gone...The Bucs also now have Shaq Barrett, who could have been David’s replacement at NU if Bo had returned his phone call. He’s not at David’s level, but still carving out a nice career as an NFL LB.
Eh, all Barrett did was become Mountain West Defensive Player of the Year and then make a nice living in the NFL. Bo's a busy man - didn't have time to watch his film or talk to him.Bo Pelini. The gift that kept giving and giving long after he was gone...
Lavonte's pro accomplishments stand up just fine next to Suh's... he just has a far lower profile nationally because he plays for the Bucs and because Suh used to be such a lightning rod. At one point, Suh was the highest paid defensive lineman in the league and Lavonte was the highest paid linebacker. Prior to this year starting, Pro Football Focus named him the second best linebacker in the league.Ndamukong? Yeah going with Ndamukong.
not sure if I liked lavonte or farley better
Both great players, but nobody in my lifetime has been able to single handedly affect a game like Farley. Suh would be up there, but Farley was just unreal.
It's close between the 2 of them but I just keep coming back to this one stat: in 1996, when Farley was on the field the opponent only scored 3 touchdowns. When he wasn't, opponents scored 16 touchdowns. Farley himself scored 16 points, opponents scored 21. That's just unreal.Suh affected games more than any player we've seen in a long time. Farley was good, but he wasn't on the level of dominance of Suh.

Can't disagree with any of that other than naming other linebackers who matched his talent. The biggest reason why I would put Farley ahead of Suh is based on the eyeball test. Both were crazy disruptive but Farley just changed the game when he played. Suh took away some aspects of the opponents gameplan and physically manhandled whoever went against him, but there was no way to account for Farley.That stat could be flawed though as teams may score more when the 1st team D is on the bench which would include him. It's splitting hairs as both were very good, but Farley isn't listed on any lists as the best overall at his position in the NCAA all time. He wasn't at the Heisman ceremony. He has no where near the awards Suh has. He wasn't drafted #2 and the list goes on. I'm only in my mid-30's, but Suh is the most dominant D-Lineman I've seen play outside of Warren Sapp. I can name a number of LB's that match or exceed the talent of TF.
If only he wouldn't have gotten that DUI before the first big 12 championship game....Can't disagree with any of that other than naming other linebackers who matched his talent.

In 1995 he only started 5 games. He led the team in tackles, was 1st in interceptions, 2nd in PBUs, 2nd in sacks, 3rd in TFLs, 1st in blocked kicks, 3rd in QB hurries. That's on a team that had several future long term pros, and he did it generally as a backup! There was a ton of talent around him and he still was near the top of categories that encompass all 3 levels of the defense plus special teams.
IIRC, @TheBeav815 used to have some takes on The Rome Show.I didn’t know Rome was still on the air, it’s 2019 not 1999.
