I assume the test didn't question proper dress attire.

Before the draft yesterday that getup definitely got me wondering what the sam hill he was doing with a crop top on.

However, if you watch the E:60 video in the other thread and I looked it up more, he wore his jersey like at Ohio state (and when he was younger as well) and the NCAA made a rule to stop it, there was a student petition trying to fight the rule, etc, etc.

He says he just likes playing with his jersey like that and it makes him more comfortable running, it became his thing.

Point is, it was a weird inside joke and his outfit makes way more sense now.

I read a report somewhere about Elliott. It said he knows the game thoroughly and would come to the sidelines and tell the coaches the defensive scheme and how they should counter it.

But you don't have to tell me. When I saw EE run roughshod over the Bama defense, then follow it up with 200 yards in the National Championship Game, I was like , "I hope we can get him."

And we've got him. :D

I'll leave others to whine about the value of a running back and why running backs shouldn't be chosen high in the draft.

Apparently, this is one of the reasons he was so damn mad after they lost to Michigan State because he felt he was being used right. Now, we may know EXACTLY what he meant.

I saw the same thing!! When he ran through everybody for the NC I thought to myself man it would be awesome to get him! But thought there's no way we could even get close. 4-12 later and the football Gods blessed us!!!

I'm not a fan of the pick but if he can allow romo to stay healthy and get us to a SB I won't complain

Elliott is a lot like Marshall Faulk with his complete game and smarts.
