The possibility of getting paralyzed for getting your bell rung seems risky. Sometimes your head gets involved in a play when you don’t want it to. Wish him nothing but the best. Unless of course he’s playing my dwags.

I like how they had to doctor shop for over a year until they found someone willing to clear him. I had assumed UCLAs neurosurgery department had cleared him, but that doesn’t sound like what happened here. Kinda sketchy to be honest.

Kind of surprised a school that seems even more interested in playing school over football than UW did it with Latu. Thought he'd pop up again but with like the Beav or someone.

He was so promising. Him, Austin Joyner, and DJ Beavers are three huge what-if guys I still think about.

Joyner was a stud for sure.

I knew he would be fine and do well.

The guy had one fucking tackle at UW before getting Kam Chancellor'ed

Joyner did eventually return to football and is playing for the BC Lions in the CFL, so a bittersweet ending to his storybiak1 said:Joyner was a stud for sure.

We probably win a NY6 bowl and another P12 title if Beavers stays healthy. He was the piece at LB we needed from 2017-2019

Nothing would have changed with Franny or with UW. The offense was always the problem. Yah the defense got ass fucked in the first half vs PSU and OSU, butt that's because Pete's brownsocks offense went 3 and out every possession -

He was good for a true freshman. Had a sack or two, was big and strong for a freshman. He was a big loss.PostGameOrangeSlices said:The guy had one fucking tackle at UW before getting Kam Chancellor'ed

Without Latu they wouldn’t have won the game.
Did Latu play? -
Latu was one of my favorite recruits. So much speed speed speed for a guy that big and all kinds of lateral quickness.SonnyShackelford said:He was so promising. Him, Austin Joyner, and DJ Beavers are three huge what-if guys I still think about.
