[QUOTE="paxvogel, post: 11700, member: 256"] Still see a lot of Carroll bashing. Last I saw from him was that Thomas deserved to be ahead of him on chart and he accepted blame for his own play. Regarding his character and this crap about he likes to pick fights. I am faculty on University of Arkansas and saw him play here and he was covered by all local papers. I don't recall a single fight in college. I do know that Houston Nutt the Arkansas coach said Ahman was the first to be in the weight room every day, usually at 6 am before the coaches arrived. He was a 3 year starter in the SEC facing Florida, Tennessee, LSU, FSU and Georgia receivers that are in the NFL now. Yes he looked bad in some games last year but he was a rookie in a defensive scheme no one understood (look at some of Al Harris play, he was burnt plenty) and had to adjust to the new enforcement in the NFL that was very inconsistent and opposite of the way he played in college. I particularly think the new rule was a disadvantage for a lot of backs and that veteran receivers learned that if they slowed down and let the DB run into them they got a flag. Let's get off his back and give him a chance. He is a good guy and can contribute to our team if we don't crucify him like we did Terrel Buckley. [/QUOTE]
