PhilD said:Lets not forget either, that Lendale White turned up to the Rose Bowl game heavier than at Christmas. His reason? Having eaten a lot at Christmas.
Two things bug me.
1) You're preparing for the biggest game of your life (granted he's somewhat spoilt by winning a previous national championship game) and you let yourself get out of shape. How would we feel about Corey putting on a few pounds over Christmas because he 'ate too much' with a game against the Colts a week or two away?
2) The way it was reported, it sounded like he had no problems with being a bit out of weight. If some of the other reports (his indignance about not running, about being 'the man' on draft day) are true, then we're starting to get a good view of his character. Maybe Carroll was a bit soft for a guy like Lendale. It'd be good to see a Coughlin/Parcells type coach get him and give him a hard time in the pros.
And then he proceeded to run for 124 yards and 3 TDs in the game.....
