LB Coach James Laurinaitis (2x B1G DPOY, 2006 Nagurski, 2007 Butkus, 2008 Lott, 3x All-American, OSU HOF)

Are you sure you're not thinking of Animal's partner, Hawk (Road Warriors)? He passed away in 2003. Smash was part of Demolition: Ax, Smash, and Crush. Not sure if all of them are still living or not

P.S.

I love that Little Animal has been given the 'Stone Cold Stunner' and took it like a man! :) Just AWSOME!

This guy makes me happy.

Another pick, and some great tackles. He is making a HUGE name for himself. And, is very quickly becoming my favorite player. (See post about hard hitting.) Not replacing AJ Hawk, because who could do that, but he is a freaking monster out on the field.

smmmmmmmmmmmmmiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiillllllllllllllllllllllllllllleeeeeeeeeeeeee :biggrin:

When was the last time anyone heard of a LB with four picks in 5 games?
When was the last time anyone heard of a LB with 4 picks at all?
I think he has the pass protection down pat.:)
Brent may have mentioned him and the word "Butkus" in the same sentence. Although that might be premature.
we all know that he is gonna be a great one. Good job Laurenitis.

Annnnnd he has four picks in the LAST four games.

I was talking to my husband right before his fourth pick and said. Too bad, Laurenitis didn't get a pick this game. He watched the screen and laughed. "Well, baby, looks like he got that pick."

Another great game for Laurinaitis! I believe he is tied with Stan White Jr. as the teams' seventh leading receiver. :biggrin:

I really got a kick out of that Nissan Titan commercial airing every single commercial break -- hearing Black Sabbath's "Iron Man," which was also the song that the Legion of Doom used when they came out to the ring back in their heyday.

Sure enough, every time that song played during a commercial break, JL would make a play on the next series.
