Of course, we get stuck with the "football isn't everything to me these days" D'Eriq King.

Well thank god they lost to tulane

 

[canesplaymaker]

I didn’t know that Trash was his backup in high school

 

[JD08]

How much criticism have we heard about his height? He's got something to prove and I hope we help him do it.

It’s happening this year.

We finally got what we need at trigger man.

Now let’s go sign more like him. You can’t win without a dude at QB. Sign 5 a year and cut the ones who don’t work out if you have to, but you have to have a dude at QB. Houston, Dallas, and Austin are great places to find talented winners at QB who understand making football a priority if So Fla doesn’t have a kid we like.

I usually like to do small cliff notes for articles as a lot of people don't like to click the link, but I encourage everyone to read the full story. Very nice piece on King and all he has gone through the last 11 months. Even more pumped for him tonight.

Let me ask everyone just 1 question.

What position can single handily change an entire team into a contender? It's also no coincidence that we haven't had a great one of these in over a decade.

Just read it. I’m spending the next few months preparing my argument for why this Natty DOES count as number 6. A dude with a hunger and mentality like that is hard to beat.

Don’t justify explaining #6 to nobody! Be ‘Cane about your business; dont give a ****!

So is it too late to bet Heisman odds? Great article and how can you not be rooting for this kid.

Just bring up the 1941 National Championship that Alabama claims. And they didn't claim it until the 1980's.

Well last year was FG kicker

 

[AutoCANE]

Love this young man. I have always felt that he was underrated at Houston and now we have the good fortune to have him here. I think he and Lash are a match made in heaven - I am so pumped to see him don the orange and green tonight.

I thought about the cliffs notes but I thought it was very much worth the full read. Sounds like a great young man!

Precisely along these lines, #6 came in 2002.

I don't give a $#!+ what anyone says. The fireworks went off. The game was over.

Ehhh

Jacory, Morris and even Kayaa should have been 10 game winners and won the ACCCG

But I agree King might just be the best qb we’ve had talent wise in forever

I've read a couple of articles about his story - most notably by Cristy Chirinos. D'Eriq has overcome a lot to get to this point and I hope he has much success - not just so our Canes will benefit from his success, but mainly because he's very deserving.
