Jesse Smith on cover of Sports Illustrated

[bigredqb7]

just got the new SI. Kerry Meier is catching a pass for KU as Smith is getting burned. Decent publicity, i guess.

It's only bad publicity if they mis-spell your name

Honestly though, that's a story he can tell the rest of his life. He just has to say I was on the cover of SI, and leave the whole getting torched for a TD out.

Was that really Jesse's man to cover (MLB on WR) - seems unlikely.

.........and the SI jinx lives on as KU makes the cover and immediately gets beat by Mizzou. I would just tell SI or EA Sports (John Madden) "no thanks" if they wanted my on their cover.
