Two-minute drill (Q&A) with UL's Jason Chery

[NewsCopy]

 In recruiting, sometimes timing means everything.

Jason Chery, a senior wide receiver at UL, knows that fact for sure. He came this close to playing football at Oklahoma State before Les Miles left for LSU.

Chery talked with The Daily Advertiser about how he ended up with the Ragin' Cajuns, why he loves playing on special teams and his plans for life after football.

Question: How excited are you to finally be back out on the field?

Answer: I've been waiting since the season ended. I worked my butt off coming in here at night and getting extra work in. I've been going to sleep dreaming about when practice was going to start.

Through the whole summer it got to the point that I got my SAT score and was on my way to Oklahoma State. Two days later, Les Miles left for LSU._ _

Hold on, I thought we never got kids with BCS level talent.


No matter why or how Jason came to UL, I'm glad he did. I predict he will have a great senior season.
