[Buckeneye]

Domer or no Domer - I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

Wow- God Bless....

 

[AJHawkfan]

Horrible situation for anyone to go through. God bless.

 

[exhawg]

I feel horrible for the kid, but this has to be Kelly's fault right?

 

[MaxBuck]

They both died.

Wow. Tough for the young man to deal with, I'd think. Prayers going out for him and his family.

Don't post much but this touched me. God Bless

big fan of Manti's now... seems like a well spoken and thoughtful man.

I thought so too, and one heck of a football player.

So, how far does he tumble on draft day after last night's "performance"? Man, that was ghastly. How many tackles did he whiff on? It was like the defensive version of Troy Smith, only worse because at least Troy could blame the pitiful blocking.

Yeah that was really, really bad...probably just makes the combine more important for him though...someone will fall in love if he has good "measurables", but that film definitely won't help.

Not sure of where he lands, I'm sure he'll probably still choose to go to the combine after Monday evenings performance.

Alec Ogletree has likely jumped him in position rankings.

He'll probably be a last 1st rounder after the combine.

He's been vastly over-rated basically all year long, I don't see how one exposing performance will dim the star entirely, especially if he shows well at the combine.

But I will say that any LB would have looked mediocre at best if his defensive line was getting dominated the way Ntre Ame's was last night.

He would still be an upgrade over Maualuga at MLB for the Bengals.
