Less than an hour ago, I saw interview with Pats Coach Jerod Mayo. He ended it with, "VFL!"

Ugh.

Am at a piano bar with a bunch of chain wearing Louisiana Italians that I don't know. No place for an East TN country boy. Edit: We got along better once I had a couple double IPAs, and we started talking auto body repair. And dinner: the Maison scallops are pretty good at Stab's in Baton Rouge.

At least 4star, if not 5. HOWEVER ... this dude stayed in the doghouse, academically. I would be shocked to see the verification that he is actually a "graduate transfer."

It's just a little ways SE of Richmond VA. My son was just there from this past Oct thru February.
