Carp reminds me of Randy White

[RealCowboyfan]

Does anyone else see any similarities? When I think of both players the word "tenacious" comes to mind. We've already seen glimpses of it from Carp and we all know Randy White was a beast that played very much like an overachiever. They're similar in size and both wear the same number. Perhaps Carp is a Randy White fan.

# 54 Bobby Carpenter
Position: LB
Height: 6-2
Weight: 257

# 54 Randy White
Height: 6ft 4 inches
Weight: 257 lbs

He chose #54 for a reason. He didn't wear it in college. I was a gigantic Randy White fan and I have quickly become a Carp fan as well. Here's to more good things from Carp in the years to come hopefully at the MLB position as well. :toast2:

GOOD POINT

1. He wouldn't be allowed to wear his college number in the pros.

2. Pretty sure I remember him reading that the number was given to him and that he didn't ask for it.

Your exactly right... and the number was given to him. He didn't have a choice.

Well you guys have shot my comparisons all to hell. Yet still, I can hope.

Yeah, what do you expect? You are a T.O fan! You think anyone takes you seriously?

They'll get over it.

This reminds me of the Bill Bates and Berry-O comparison.

When they start calling Carpenter names that are "part man and part monster"...then he will have arrived! As of now...not even close...

Agreed!
That is why I have # 5

Here's a svelte Randy White playing for Maryland in 1973.

Did you know, that he only weighed 245lbs between 1975-78. In his final year in Dallas (1988) he weighed 272lbs.
