    Anthony Vonture was a great corner for us who was bat shit crazy

    Us?






    (RIP)
    Easily in my top 5 all-time fav college players regardless of program. Kid was a sure fire 1st rounder and would have been a pro bowler. I put him up right there with Sean Taylor in terms of just flat out ability.

    People have forgotten how good Vontoure was.

    Tip for the cops: when a guy says he can't fucking breath, err on the side of caution and assume it's true.

    AV died because he had a mental illness and needed help, and he didn't get it.
    He was really good, but you are overrating him.
    No, I really don't think so. He was a rare breed athletically: big corner with great straight-ahead speed for the fly patterns and could change directions - aka, he "had da hips"!

    He was murder on a corner blitz and could take out the the other guy's best receiver all game long.

    His combo of size, physicality and ability to change direction were/are rare. Whenever you get a lot of something athletically, you often give up something that lives in tension with that talent. Vontoure had no athletic weaknesses.

    We?, ok You, likely don't beat 2000 Miami w/o him. I'd take him over any corner who's run through here, which admittedly is not a position steeped in history at Washington. I'd even take him over Peters.

    But how are power trips effective for the good of the public ?
