So did the Tigers recruit him? Lyons claims he doesn't know. He committed to Kentucky - the program where his dad became a star - after his junior year and told his high school coach to hide any letters from other colleges, even LSU.

I'm going to let him loose," Burton said. "Dicky's Dicky. I hope he doesn't put his foot in his mouth but, if he does, I'll be right beside him to try to get it out."

You got to love Dicky, he is special. I hope he has a big game against LSU!

With all the attention opposing defenses give Tamme and Burton, I've believed all season that Lyons, with all his talent, should be a bigger part of the offense -- but then I'm just a long-distance observer.

prophet, I think the opposing defenses pay a lot of attention to Dicky, if they don't they are not very smart... All they have to do is look at the stats:
