However, and you probably know more about this then I do, but how did he get into Cal Berkley without being smart?

I mean I know they probably didn't hold him to the same standards going in as their other students but to attend Cal-Berkley something has to be working right in that otherwise messed up head of his. Then again UGA has some pretty loose standards with athletes. I've had friends with 1,300 SAT scores that have been denied admittance while hearing about athletes with 800 SAT scores.

Found this on Mershawn:

Marshawn Lynch « Now & Later

Immaturity and bad decisions are not a direct line correlation to a lack of intelligence.

That being said, I would have been in favor of going after Lynch before we stocked up at RB with veterans but I think Portis, Johnson, Parker and Alridge will give us a nice rotation that provides a decent balance of power and speed for 2010.
