Title: Deon Murphy
Post by: steve dave on August 28, 2007, 10:15:28 AM

If only Deon was a little more confident and could learn to keep his head up, we might really have something then.  I don't know if he'll ever amount to anything unless he starts to believe in himself.  sigh.

That might be a good place to start in resolving the problem.

Typically Pre-Op Trannies are no good at sports. Unless of course we are referring to Matthew/Martha (as played by Jonathan Brandis) in the hit 1992 movie LadyBugs.

“We’re going to do some prime-time things in that game,” said Murphy, a 5-foot-10, 170-pound junior-college transfer from Coffeyville, Kan., who also is penciled in to handle kickoff returns and punt returns.

Murphy, of course, was speaking about himself — and he’s thinking rather big.

“Special-teams wise, I can do the same things Deion Sanders did,” Murphy said.

“Seeing what (former Wildcat) Yamon Figurs did that game (two touchdowns and a 52-yard punt return against Texas), I feel like I can come in here and do the same thing and make a bigger impact,” said Murphy, a Houston native who says he’s been clocked at 4.28 seconds in the 40-yard dash.

 :-* JUCO transfers who compare themselves to PROVEN Hall of Fame NFL players who played 2 professional sports = the Kiss of Death. Thanks Dion! That reminds me of when one of those moron color commentators compared Jeremy Shockey to Mark Bavaro and when the head coach at the time (name escapes me) got wind of it, he reminded Shockey that at this point in his NFL career he couldn't hold Bavaro's jock.

No, that was Frank Murphy. The story goes that he was clocked at 4.24. The coaching staff all huddled up and determined that the coach timing it somehow screwed up, so they made him do it again. That time he was clocked at 4.22!!!  And the legend lives on...
