Joe, What the hell is a Danny Weurfel? Do they make them at Waffle House? :)
Seriously, I don't remember the person you're talking about. I'm not sure you realize the extent of Brooks vertical challenge. That boy ain't but 5'4". The last time I went to a practice I remember seeing Brooks and thinking he was someone's little brother. He is so small he literally looks like a child among men. He's so short, he makes Mike Laborde look like Yao Ming: http://tinyurl.com/yamm ! Don't get me wrong, I'm all for the boy! I just don't believe for one minute that he'll be a legitimate threat as a receiver. Here's hoping I wrong! Roll Tide!!
