College Football Senior Superlatives

Most Likely to Resort to Porn Star Status

Spending a majority of his four years in Lubbock either stuck on special teams or mired on the two-deep depth chart, Texas Tech wideout turned defensive back L.A. Reed hasn’t exactly lived up to the panache that his name emits. The former four-star recruit’s athletic ability has often been heralded by coaches, but seldom validated on the field.

Perhaps it’s time for Reed to think about life after football. With a little networking and the aid of a '70s-inspired 'stache, I’m sure Reed would have an easy time breaking into the talent-laden world of smut film. Helping his cause may be the unsubstantiated rumor that Reed’s Red Raider teammates have a history of being skittish when it comes to taking a spot next to Reed in the team shower.

 

Most Deserving of a Going Away Party

Looting. Rioting. Dizzying hysteria in the streets of Greeley. This figures to be the scene when Northern Colorado University finally bids adieu to the present group of seniors on its helpless football team.

By no means am I a historian on Bears football, but the last four seasons are presumed to be the most futile stretch ever for a program that celebrated back-to-back FCS titles as recently as 1996-97.

After posting nine wins in 2003, the UNC coaching staff rode the momentum of a 2-9 season in ’04 to recruit the superstar class that has since manufactured just five wins and floundered its way to a whopping 38 defeats.

 

Most Likely to Be Convicted of Theft

He has no consideration whatsoever for the well-being of others, nor does he care about the psyche of opposing offenses, particularly quarterbacks.  For three-plus seasons, Victor Harris has made a career of preying on wayward passes and converting them into instant points for his team.

Affectionately known to his teammates as “Macho,” Harris is the ball-hawking cornerback that acts as the lynchpin and personification of Virginia Tech’s smothering defensive schemes.

Since excelling on special teams during his freshman season in 2005, Harris has been among the national leaders in interceptions each of the last three years and has returned four of his 15 career interceptions for touchdowns. 

To boot, Harris has a 100-yard kickoff return to his credit, evidence that he has the wheels to endure even the longest high-speed chase.
