Let's rename De'Anthony

GrandpaDuck · Post by **GrandpaDuck** » Thu Feb 03, 2011 10:08 am

So Snoop gave him Black Mamba and the Duck players the Baby DT tag, his mama named him De'Anthony. But really who are they to nick name him compared to the creative collective genius of the Ducksattack.com forum posters?

I suggest we should decide on and push a preferred nick-name and short form and seed it through the related Duck inter-tube sites and use it consistently to impose our will. Feel the power of C4Q. <diabolical quackle emoticon>

Here are a couple of ideas both original and stolen

La Verde Mamba
Green Mamba
LaMamba
Baby DT
Little DT
De'Anthony
Duck'Anthony

Short Names:
DAT
LDT (little DT)
D'AT
Anything but "DT" that's Darron and he earned it.

Suggestions? Preferences? Eat duck poop and die you crazy old man?

IMO I think we should just keep "The Black Mamba" or maybe just call him Mamba.. Such a sick nickname.. Baby/little DT is lame.. DAT is alright but let's keep The Black Mamba

I actually like using the name he was known affectionately by USC as.

Would be like if you had an endearing nickname for your girlfriend and then she suddenly dumps you and now her new man adopts the same nickname and you have to listen to him whisper it in her ear continuously.

I don't know...maybe I'm just creepy.

Maybe somebody can clear this up... but so far... nobody has him as signing a let of intent... ESPN still has him as a commit to USC... I am not trying to start anything... just moreless pointing it out.

Sounds like he just wants to be known as De'Anthony. That works for me.

Ummmm I just checked Rivals... Not only is there no mention of him as a signed Duck... is not listed even as a commit. Last night he was listed with Jerrard Randall as a commit but not signed... now neither of them even listed. I would like some clarification on whats going on.

After reading another thread I feel like he doesn't want to be called Mamba anymore. He wants a fresh new start. I like DAT the most. Or just De'Anthony.

Rivals never had him listed, but they do/did have an article about him committing. That said ESPN and Rivals aren't the authority on if he did or didn't send in his LOI so slow down and take a deep breath. He sent in his LOI yesterday at 9:30 AM well before his presser. Randall is still very much committed to UO, just has to wait a few weeks on some test scores to see if he can get in or not. The reason is because if he signs and LOI it will mess up him financial aid and enrollment into a JC and he wants to pick a school as soon as possible and have everything taken care of so he can get started towards him AA this summer, if he has to go that route.

See the paragraph below from http://www.goducks.com/ViewArticle.dbml ... OEM_ID=500:

Los Angeles athlete De'Anthony Thomas, who prepped at Crenshaw High School, was added to UO's 2011 class late in the day, giving the Ducks a second five-star recruit for the first time. Thomas, the Los Angeles City Section player of the year as a running back and cornerback, was rated as the nation's No. 1 athlete (Lyerla was No. 2) by Rivals.com, and the No. 1 cornerback prospect by Scout.com.

Methinks we can relax. It also indicates it was "updated" this morning and I know the headline changed from "Seven" to "Eight" Prep All-Americans.
