When will the first "Matt sucks Woodson's dick" joke come?

Matt sucks on Andre's wood....son.

Great read. I have to agree that, from what I've heard of it, his high school coaching was a joke. I also think he should go in the 1st, and the second QB taken.

But when you consider Kentucky is an SEC school with a lot of money...great facilities and such with a ton of opportunity, they should have had better coaching than Ron Hudson. I've talked to Dre' about this before, and what I got from it was that it was a LOSE-LOSE situation.

He had no chance in high school at North, and he had no chance in his first few years at UK. Hudson wouldn't work with his talent, and he instilled no confidence into Dre'...and how could he be confident going up against the toughest defenses in the country every week in the SEC with so little talent on that OL?

You know him personally?

That's exactly what I was about to ask.

Yeah I went to high school with him...I was a on the JV basketball team when he was a junior and senior.

lol you never knew I went to North Hardin? How do you think I know so much about his career?

That's awesome. Can you interview 'Dre for the main site? I think lots of people would like it, since he is a potential first round pick.

I finally got around to reading this article. Good point about "experts" never fully studying prospects and learning why they 'tick' the way they do.

The biggest thing is not the slow release it is of the methodical delivery he has, as to the question about heart some times you just cant measure heart or intestinal fortitude.

Good job on the article, good read

I agree, these guys from major media outlets don't know the backstory. Plus, some on them aren't even good (I'm looking at you Frank Coyle).

I don't have any means of contact with him...I used to convo with him on facebook when he was on but I don't have his cell phone number.

If we did a podcast I'd love to interview him. It would be huge for the site...but I don't have his cell number to do it. I might be able to get it through various high school friends who still might have it.

Oh well, too bad.
