He suffered nerve damage and could not extend his foot all the way down or something freaky like that, but still played!Ryan Benjamin, also one of the Original 14 was the teams Long Snapper. Leavitt told him that if he could do it well enough, he would give hi a scholly. His entire career here, he did not have 1 bad snap. He went on to the Bucs and played in the Super Bowl victory over the Raiders.DANG !!! I Love USF Football !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it had something to do with us being in a BCS gane, I remember spending 2 hours changing it after the UCONN game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you kids are probably saying to yourselves "hey, I'm gonna go out and GET THE WORLD BY THE TAIL and wrap it around and pull it down and put it in my pocket." Well I'm here to tell you that you're probably going to find-- as you go out there-- that you're not going to amount to JACK SQUAT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
