Derek Milton - I know it's been discussed already...

[dawgstudent]

but that's just really impressive of him to come support his old team at the game Saturday night.

 

[klong-dog]

Didn't hear. Will you elaborate alil more DS?

 

[dawgstudent]

He was in the stands in a MSU shirt rooting on State. Was one of the first to congratulate the team coming off the field.

Just seems rare to me you would see a transfer rooting on his old school like that.

Where'd you see that (sorry if asking a moon landing question)? That is really cool that he would be there. I wish he'd lived up to the potential, but glad he's producing at McNeese.

He score a couple TDs against Nebraska a few weeks ago. Hope he has a productive career down there.

 

[dawgstudent]

He has 4 TDs in two games.

If he could hold onto the ball he would be playing a bunch for us. Very

classy move by him, love seeing that.

Prescott mentioned him in his post-game press conference. Someone asked him who all was in the stands for him and he mentioned his dad, brothers, and his "good friend" Derek Milton

 

[klong-dog]

That's awesome and says a lot about the kid.

 

[Wizard.sixpack]

He only scored 1 against Nebraska

One of those situations where it worked out best for all involved. I would certainly love to have him as a back-up here, but if he really was having trouble holding on to the ball (or even just had acquired that reputation with the coaches), it probably is best for him to go somewhere that he can get enough carries to fix that. Is a shame because he could clearly run the ball.

 

[tired]

Was he talented enough to play for us?

 

[Palos verdes]

Was he talented enough to play for us?

Yes, he was. He just wanted more playing time and had an opportunity at another school.

They were Roommates

Dak and Derek used to room together.

 

[Philly Dawg]

They gave him some carries late in the season last year in which he probably needed to do well to secure a good spot in the pecking order and he had a key fumble.

 

[ALdawg.sixpack]

yes he was but he had a fumbling problem while here...

He had a lot of family there his cousin flew in from Portland Oregon, his aunts and uncle and his 80 yr old grandmother from His mothers family.
