Da'rick Rogers

I still remember the catch he made for a touchdown against Cincinatti. Got sandwiched pretty hard by two UC defenders and just held up the ball with a big smile on his face. Sorry the fancies of the world pulled him away for a period of his life because he was fun to watch. We can root for him now in the NFL.

My favorite memory of darick was the one handed catch he made to beat Vandy. If memory serves correct we're down late in the game needing a td and dooles kicks a fg. One of the dumbest decisions of his tenure... And I understand how bold of a statement that is. Anyway he's bailed out because they were offsides and even though it is still 4th down he decides to go for it this time and darick makes the awesome catch. He was a great player. Not really sure why people hate on him so much. That guy was a monster out there for us. He got kicked out because he liked to smoke herb... Just ridiculous kids get kicked out of school for that.

I'm glad that guy came in to say F Rogers and then say his opinion about irrelevant things so I could add him to my ignore list. Rogers is an incredible talent and he can be an all-star receiver especially at a place like Indy if he just stays focused.

CP, Darick and Justin Hunter all showing out today, hope the youngsters are paying attention.

CP killed me in fantasy football today. Had him stashed on my bench for weeks, had to cut him due to injuries in my lineup. My opponent picked him up off waivers and bashed me over the head with him.

SIAP but did anyone notice that Yahoo Fantasy Football, on the notes for the players, mention DRodgers' questionable character? I thought it was kind of crazy that they mentioned that on there.. Normally just some info about injury, or projected snap amounts, etc. Couldn't believe they called him out on that on the notes. But I guess it kind of pertains to his game.

Sucks this guy didn't get his act together. I could only imagine what would have become of last year with this kid on the roster.. Swap last year's offense to this year, with DRodgers in the mix and Neal running with the same intensity as this year.. No way we don't win 2-3 we lost this year. Not to mention the better coaching.

Coradelle Patterson 78 yd run in the snow today. Damn, i wish he had stayed one more year. He might be the most naturally talented runner ever to wear orange and white -- and Dooley had no idea how to utilize him.

Vol Nation posters never pass up a chance to bash Dooley. Dooley brought him to U.T. If it had not been for Dooley, Patterson would not have stopped in Knoxville.
Patterson caught 46 passes for 778 yards and 5 td. He ran 25 times for 308 yards and 3 tds. He even completed 1 of 1 passes for 28 yards. From scrimmage he accounted for 1,086 yards on 71 plays for an avg of 15.3 yards per attempt, and 8 td.
He returned 24 kickoffs for 671 yards and 1 td, an average of 28 yards per. He returned 4 punts for 101 yards and 1 td, an average of 25.3 yards.
If Dooley would have been smart, Patterson could have been successful here.

Even CP doesn't really know how to utilize CP. I rarely agree with anything Wes Rucker says, but he tweeted something the other day that got my attention. Most of CP's college highlight reel is from plays that got busted and subsequently bailed out by CP doing his thing the only way he knows how (i.e. dodging everyone and taking it 90 yards to the house).

Rogers' 'tude sure cost him a lot of money. The mutiny he and Bray led against Dooley added up to how many millions of dollars lost on draft day?

How is not? He carried the whole receiving corps with a terrible QB after Hunter wrnt down.

Just because he is/was an amazing athlete doesn't make him a VFL. He was as destructive to this program behind the scenes as a player could be.

I'd be destructive if Dooley was my coach too. You know as much about behind the scenes as I do. People say Dooley lost the team then act like its out in left field the way DaRick acted. He still went out there and made a lot of great plays that helped us win. I'd probably get pissed if I felt like I was the only one carrying my weight too.

The guy flat out quit running his routes and stopped blocking defenders during the Kentucky game because he didn't want to go to a bowl. That was out in public for everyone to see.
He was still having attitude problems when he went to Buffalo, which is part of why he was cut. He's a punk.
