Movie Star
Tennessee defensive line coach Ed Orgeron will play himself in the movie about Ole Miss All-American offensive lineman Michael Oher. He will film his scene in Atlanta along with Sandra Bullock, the star of the movie.
Will the movie provide sub-titles for Orgeron's Cajun accent?
What came out of Orgeron's mouth was not Cajun. It was just pure gibberish. Never understood one word that man said.
He is the most sincere football coach I have ever met. He gave me his cell number and told me to call if I ever had any questions or if I needed anything. When I called, he answered and helped me out. I wish him well at TenneSC...
Fight on!
I like Coach O's antics. Does he rip his shirt off in the scene?
I heard that they originally wanted Farmer Fran from the "Waterboy" to play the part. He apparently he was easier to understand, but Coach "O" did a better performance when it came to ripping off his shirt and almost having a coronary. Farmer Fran did do a better job with the nipple twirl though. Fight On!
_The Blindside_ was a truly amazing read, a must for any football fan, college or pro. I'm rooting for Michael Oher to go in the top 10 Saturday as much as I'm rooting for Mark Sanchez.
TenneSC! That is excellent. Fight on, Vols.
