Da'Rick Rogers finds himself on Rick Show thanks to our legion of readers who are mindful of Ricks as they go through their daily lives. This is a pretty good catch. I mean, his name is not only Rick, but 'Da' Rick! Spectacular!
Da'Rick was a standout wide receiver for the University of Tennessee, leading the SEC in receptions (67) and receiving yards (1040) in 2011. He was a 2012 pre-season all-American by Phil Steele. His future in the SEC was bright for this season...until the drugs got him. He was suspended from the UT football team and rather than sit out the season, decided to transfer to Tennessee Tech a week after his punishment was handed down. He played immediately, and through the first two games had 8 receptions for 163 yards. Nice start for the 2012 season for Da'Rick.
Here's one of his highlight videos from 2011:
Yes!! Your legion of readers has been appeased.
ReplyDeleteAwesome find....but gotta admit that in my head I was hearing it like Da Rick (Bears Superfans style). I was a little disappointed when I watched the video and they were pronouncing it like Derrick.
ReplyDeleteI kind of figured that they would pronounce it that way, so I've been trying to avoid hearing it pronounced so I could keep my dream alive.
DeleteMentioned in On the Mark today. No mention of this blog, however.
ReplyDeleteOf course not. Haters
