Lamaison’s Return to the Mounties is A Personal Thing

Many won’t see it, nor will they say it, but Nick Lamaison, from my eyes is an angry man.

With such an eloquent and professional demeanor, one would argue and dispute my claim but I still feel like he’s screaming and drooling deep down his well-composed manner.

Going back to the past … how many different paths would be possible after what Lamaison had endured since the beginning of 2009 when he stepped foot at the University of Tennessee?

Having the opportunity to be instructed by one of college football’s most intriguing coach in Lane Kiffin (along with Monte Kiffin and Ed Orgeron and company), one would think that Lamaison had the best going for him.

Unfortunately, when Kiffin and company halted their coaching careers having only completed a year at Tennessee, Lamaison’s road to college playtime would appear to no-time as the Volunteer football program underwent a massive overhaul.

During the transition period, Lamaison’s path had led to no destiny. And without a destiny, his career in football would dwindle to almost oblivion after the emergence of quarterbacks Tyler Bray and Chris Simms to Tennessee overshadowing his chance to showcase his stuff.

This led to Lamaison’s decision to bounce back to Mt. SAC and at this point … the six-foot-two-inch quarterback is out for redemption.

Maybe he’s got more than just something to prove.

Maybe there’s more that we’re not seeing.

For 2010, Lamaison has work to do, but with what he’s been through, I feel like his time has begun … once more but this time for the best.
