****! That was a freakish dude. He grew up around the corner from my grandparents. I remember watching Friday the 1st time and when Deebo comes by on Craig’s bike, I thought of Speedy riding his bike down the road.

Don't remember him (I'm not an AARP member yet) but that still seems too young.

He was Davenport before Davenport...Let his weight get out of control at UM, coupled with injuries. But showed flashes of Brilliance.
