I think so too. He is awesome. I watched him play back in high school. What a combo of strength and speed.

Laurinaitas & Maualuga both sound like a disease one might get from a Brazilian hooker.

i don't like magula too much. he shy's away from contact

10 dollars says JL is faster than both of them. I personally would take JL, he makes plays, he is above average in coverage and stopping the run. I am disappointed with our DC not blitzing with him more. Rey is a great player also, but I would take JL in a heartbeat.

LMAO. This is why people who don't know what they are talking about shouldn't say stupid crap. He sets the BCS Championship record with 18 tackles, but yea that is not impressive LMAO.

those sound like horrible diseases. Is there a cure for either?

Lets be honest he had alot of tackles but they were downfield, the only player that was remotely impressive against LSU was Jenkins.

4 were for negative stops. It's a moot point, it's a lot like people who watch the NBA and gripe about someone who scores a lot that they don't like. I always hear "well yeah he did score 40 but almost 1/2 of the buckets were dunks". So since they were dunks they are supposedly easier and shouldn't count. Point being yes he did have downfield tackles, he also had a lot of short tackles as well. Since he chased someone down in the secondary those tackles shouldn't count?

I thought Beenie Wells out running the fastest defense in the country was impressive. Steltz didn't have a chance at catching him and he had an angle on him.

Of course tackles were downfield, the DL, including the much overhyped Gholston, were getting blown off the ball.

I'm just saying he didn't look impressive, his stat line was way more impressive than his actual game performance.

And I think Maualuga is better now and will be a better pro.....Hell I think Cushing is better too actually.

Maualuga is a beast

Ok Mark May.

Frankly I'm of the opinion that everybody who plays for USC is better than the best player that OSU has. Have you seen USC's water boy. :rolleyes:

Suprise suprise all of the Ohio State homers think Laurinatias is better. Basically the only thing he has on Manuluga is he is quicker but that is it.
