Jim Bob Cooter to Lose Title of "Greatest Name Ever"

Lucious Pusey - #47
Eastern Illinois
Height: 5-foot-11
Weight: 200 pounds
Class Year: Fr

Hat tip to DawgChat on this one. If you think it's made up, check for confirmation on ESPN, SI.com and Yahoo Sports.

Best line from DawgChat on it:
"That's James Bond's illegitimate kid."
- The Legendary Dawg Van Damme

Sorry...no pics.

That kid's parents are either sadists on a level that would make the Marquis de Sade break out in a case of the hives, or they were determined to make young Lucious the toughest SOB in America. I'd be willing to lay odds that once he hit about the 4th grade (perhaps younger than that, depending on the wordliness and cruelness quotient of the older boys in his grade school) that young Lucious probably ended up fighting people who teased him about his handle on a daily basis.

The possiblity that his parents are just the two most tone deaf people on the planet exists, but who over the age of about 7 cant see the downside of THAT name? I suppose that his daddy (god knows what HIS first name must have been) was inured to the potential detriments of the last name. Or, he's just a tough SOB himself after a lifetime of trading ass whuppings with hecklers, and he didnt care.

Me, I'd be changing my name to something less controversial. Like, say, Dick Long.

I was trying to come up with a joke/comment that would add even more humor to this story, and . . . I got nothing. It is simply perfect just as it is. Great find.

only one problem, he also seems to go by Lucuios Seymour. Check the roster again (and I looked at the EIU Athletic Website). Sorry to be the wet blanket...

now if his name was Seymour Pusey, well......

Not even Sue's old man, with the scar on his cheek and his evil eye, would have named his boy Lucious Pusey (or Cooter for that matter).

With that surname, the only first name worse than "Lucious" would have been "Sweet Sweet".

A friend told me that Georgia won a game with Happy Dicks injured and a not playing. He claims the AJC newpaper headline was:
"Bulldogs win with Dicks out."

I don't believe it. Anyone ever heard of this?
