I haven't read this thread at all so I dont know if this is a canes thing only or period but for me at safety a cane thing only or period should be the same in any interchangeable order. That's Bennie,Sean and ed. All three monsters of a different sort. #4 out of um would be my godfather. Burgess Owen's. Far as Sean goes he was absolutely freakish when you look at how big he was and then see first hand just how athletic he was. Seen that boy do some insane **** like it wasn't nothing. Side note I really wish as a university we would do more to honor his memory. Not just him,but marlon,chris,Bryan and al as well. These are people that bled with us. That should never be forgot or disregarded. You dont simply say out of sight out of mind over that.

Burgess was very good at UM. One of the stats that the sports information department put out was that Burgess only allowed 2 completions to his man all season his senior year. Was one of the nicer guys on the team. Chuck Foreman was the 12th pick in the NFL draft and Burgess was the next pick.

Don't I know it. Trust me I've spent the majority of my life hearing about it. Amazingly smart too. Burgess had always been an inspiration to me. My younger years were filled with my old boy, Burgess, Ted, his wife Janet & his two mastiffs sitting around hearing war stories of college,NFL & how good they each were. I feel like I was destined to be a guidance counselor...

Honestly with as little UM bias as I can have I really do think reed and Taylor are the best safety combo you can have they balance each other out perfectly Reed can cover the whole field, and Taylor can play in the box and up top.

I feel u.... But I just can't in my right mind put ST over Lott. If he wasn't taken away too early then he woukf of surpassed him in no time.... May have surpassed reed

Nah...especially if you watched they ways in which he scored them. Before most of yall knew about ST...me and most of my homey's knew who he was...been a freak. I ain't trying to hear no stories..I got enough of my own.
