An oldie but a goodie

I had never seen this, but for all those interested here is the recruiting story of Haloti:

Thanks Chapelhill, I've never read that before either. Had to chuckle at "to Portland for free, before having to drive to the university some 45 minutes away". 45 minutes to drive 120 miles is moving.

*Gasp* ! Colleen Belloti is a mormon???

Does Canzano know about this?

Thanks for sharing the write-up!

LDS upbringing, not a practicing Mormon. There is a bit of a difference and I doubt that not even Canzano would touch that with a 10 foot pole.

I realize that... Wait til he gets that job with the Enquirer, or the Globe... Then, everybody is fair game!

I remember when He picked the Ducks over BYU, it shocked everybody here and pissed off a lot of BYU fans! I Love it!!!!

Haloti will probably go down as one of if not my all time favorite Defensive PLayer. That guy was soo fun to watch just in awe. I am still waiting for the day that we get another unstoppable DT like him. They just change the whole game. What a great story, even sadder now with the death of both his parents.

He doesn't get a lot of hype but he's one of the top 2-3 DT's in the league. Without him Ray Lewis isn't playing the way he did last year and neither are Bart Scott and Terrell Suggs for that matter.
