LeVeon Bell

Why shuttle times are way more important than 40 times.

Discuss.

MSU wasted a chance to get Le'Veon a Heisman. That's my discuss.

by **duffy munn** Mon 16 Jan 2017 - 12:34

He is the best back in the league.

Nobody does more.

by Da Mayor Mon 16 Jan 2017 - 12:49

Use to follow him on Twitter. Some of the videos of his footwork drills were insane.

He was 245. He was very good then. He's different now.

Not as good as Barry Sanders

So fun to watch him play.

Uh, no.

Re: Heisman at MSU, if I recall our OL sucked and he basically had no running lanes.

His unique style is a lot of fun to watch.

Blame Coach Mannie for making him play at 245

by **Vlad** Mon 16 Jan 2017 - 19:54

I just hope he's stopped smokin' weed for at least a few years. Not because I have anything against smokin' weed, but more because I don't want him to sit out an entire season. He's pretty good you know?

I do blame the coaches.

Yet he still had over 1600 yards rushing and averaged 4.7 per, with another 400 receiving yards in 2012.

I am just thinking the damage he would of done at 215...

He was third out of 34 backs tested in the cone dril and top ten in the shuttle. I don't think he's as effective if he doesn't have quick burst ability. I also think he transformed his body a bit after his last year here to be better at that. And frankly, I think we might have become better offensively because he left.

With him as a feature back the development of Cook and the receivers wouldn't have been as rapid imo. He might have had the ball in his hands 35 plus times a game.

by Steve81 Mon 16 Jan 2017 - 22:09

I can see him winning the MVP at some point.

Gets the franchise tag...

Means Bell should make more than $12 million in 2017. Current rookie deal paid him around $1.1 million.

That's going to buy a lot of weed, or about six hours of recording studio time.

That's a somewhat decent bump in pay.

Yeah....from $300K to $12M....not bad.

Two Spartans on franchise tag. WE HAVE TO BE ABLE TO USE THAT FOR RECRUITING.

Maybe even as motivation for current players to work hard, keep their mouths shut and not get red carded.

Over the past few months the bar has been raised for what constitutes embarrassment for MSU. So no, getting suspended twice for pot does not look all that bad today.

News flash. It was never an embarrassment. But you knew that. No one bats an eye about getting caught smoking weed.

It was a little embarrassing, not gonna lie. Not that I lost any sleep or anything, but you know...it's not the type of thing you want to read. Especially when it happens a second time.

Anyway, I think the Steelers did the right thing by tagging him. He's too good to let go, yet you can't trust him with a long term deal either.

I'm with you, I tend to hide out for days when I find out someone that went to the same school I did smokes dope. It's gol darned embarrassing.

The minute I find out it's happened, I grab all my Spartan shirts and toss them into the wash, hoping to clean away all the negative vibes.

Every man has to have a code, a set of standards to live by. I am glad we are all in agreement here on where to draw the line. As for Mr. Bell, well I say we just smoke this roach!

by **WhiteBoyHatcher** Tue 28 Feb 2017 - 19:10

Because Vlad likes the Steelers more than he does the Spartans and the kid his Steelers got from his alma mater hurt his Steelers. That plus a lot of self loathing = reason for embarrassment.

So I'll need a ruling on this. It's the late 80's. decade of the hairy bush still. Well if a girl from your high school had posed in penthouse is that famous or infamous? Something to be embarrassed about or proud of? In other words should you burn your high school letter jacket or use your senior t-shirt to clean up after?
