My apologies if this has been posted already, but this article is kind of a teaser as to what type of kid Cush is. Enjoy

Bergen Catholic (Oradell, N.J.) High coach Fred Stengel says his former star and current USC senior linebacker Brian Cushing has a bit of "wild dog" in him. Cross country in Los Angeles, Trojans coach Pete Carroll calls Cushing an "animal." When barking orders during practice, USC linebackers coach Ken Norton Jr., a three-time Super Bowl champion whose father held the heavyweight title and famously broke Muhammad Ali's jaw, addresses the 6-foot-3, 255-pound Cushing as the "Bulldog of Bergen."

I love the nickname that Mayock gave him.

New Jersey Meathead! That's a good one.

I agree 110% all it take is one firecracker to set off a whole box and I think Cushing is that firecracker!!

cushing brings the aggressiveness you need in your LB's. before we drafted cush we have had alot of guys who are quiet leaders. i love those type of guys, but this is football. it is a game of emotions, you need a guy who is nasty on the field. we have dunta who is fiery guy, who will bring the wood when given the chance. but i believe a LB with this type of nastiness, and intensity adds a great dynamic to our front seven. frank bush i think has it right when he says he see allot of bill romanowski. we need that kind of intensity on the field.
