I told him to do this on Twitter! I doubt that I'm the only one, but so awesome that he took the time to throw it in there. Gotta love how humble Tyler is at this point.

Hot damn, I love having TT as our QB (or anywhere on the team for that matter). If you read the MMQB section with him, its clear how humble and level-headed he is. Two brief quotes demonstrate this perfectly:

Level-headed: "Tettleton sounded like an NFL quarterback, the more he talked. 'Penn State's over,' he said. 'Now it's time to focus on New Mexico State.'''

Humble: "'What's the weirdest sight you saw on Court Street?' I asked.

He thought a few seconds. 'The weirdest thing ... well, I'd say seeing people wearing my jersey. I mean, I can't get used to that. It's crazy. I don't like the spotlight much. I'm just glad we were able to do this for the university. I'm blessed to be here. I always think of the programs that passed on me because they didn't think I could do it. These coaches took a shot on me.'"

He keeps talking like this and I may have an old-guy hero to put on the same pedestal as my childhood hero, Mr. Cub -- Ernie Banks.  I think we have a Mr. Bobcat in the making!
