For all the crap he took on this and other boards for years he sure showed up as a senior. Stud!

I am not forgetting his colleagues #31 or #20. Name a better group of linebackers in the nation!.. Cheers to these guys. They will be missed greatly. Go hawks! Can't wait for the bowl game!

Yep, morris was dinged up as a soph in 2011 and the dline didnt keep him clean last year, this year he and the other linebackers, have been free to move around, the dline is eating blockers and making tackles, so the Lbkrs have played great.

And they all have different strengths which is key.

The definition of "Synergy" - The value of the whole is greater than the sum of it's parts. Describes the Hawkeye linebacking corps of 2013!

A whole lot of money will ease any hurt feelings I am sure.

I never understood the hate directed towards Morris. I've been a fan since he was thrown into the mix against Penn State his freshman year. I was at that game and knew right away he was going to be a good one.
