Excellent read on Viska. Goes a bit more in depth on his background and challenges growing up. Great story

Disrespect?

ESPN doing their usual bs. See the “other games” thread.

I interpret that to mean disrespect to the team, not him personally.

Batteries in a piss soaked sock??
Finally got a chance to read. As if I needed more reason to root for this kid? Man oh Man Honcho - Go get it. Make Your Father and Mother proud.
I love when You hear or read these stories about where these athletes come from and their raising. My kids are spoiled rotten and will never understand. I wish nothing but the best Karma to Viskas family. Just Wow.
But the game is at 830pm, Larry.

Stuff the batteries with Whataburger
MM talks about how conflict and stories like this are what propel players to do amazing things during many of his 2016 RISE talks. PL had a challenging life and look who he is and where he is!!!
I have coached young people, and on the whole, kids from lower income blue collar schools are much more fun to coach because of the hunger, while rich kids are not grateful for anything usually, and just do not have the edge to them, since they can go home to a big warm house and play video games all day.
I wish and pray for nothing but the best for the Shenault Family and our Huncho!

Go Viska

I mean, damn.
Could CU finally get their first Biletnikoff and end their All American drought?
You spelled heisman wrong
I am all on board the #Viska4Heisman train, just don't see it happening. CU is going to have to go undefeated and Viska will have to have 7 more games like he had against ASU to overcome the Tagovailoa vs Murray narrative.
The last WR to win the Heisman was Desmond Howard in 1991.

After reading, it's also true that LaViska is a good good good man. Damn good. All the best to their family. He'll definitely be 1st round material for the 2020 draft. Make that money LaViska!
I know lol, just messing around.

We've never won a Biletnikoff Award so I'm hoping for that...Heisman is never going to happen IMO...even though the case could be made Viska has a greater impact on us than any other Heisman contender...i.e. I'm pretty sure 'Bama would still be undefeated without Tagovailoa.
I agree that he could not likely ever win it. but just being INVITED to NYC would be monumental for Viska and the Buffs!

USC's goal against Colorado is to find out where receiver Laviska Shenault is at all times
http://www.latimes.com/sports/usc/la-sp-usc-report-20181011-story.html
After practice Wednesday, USC cornerback Isaiah Langley was asked what makes Colorado’s budding star receiver, Laviska Shenault, so tough to defend.
“Who?” Langley said.
“Laviska Shenault,” the reporter answered.
“Who’s that?” Langley said, still stumped.
“No. 2. The guy with all the stats,” the reporter answered.
“Oh!” Langley said.

I so badly want Viska to stiff arm this fool to the turf. I want my DB's to be a little cocky, but you can do that without sounding so damn arrogant.
