I must be the only one who likes Ray "Voodoo" Tatum (SPOILERS)

You are probably right about everything except being shunned by the team at the fast food place because he made a complete wreck of the team during the short time he was there.

He had the same problem that college kid at TMU had when Coach Taylor was there. He thought he was GOD's gift to football and was a "Billy Badass" but not above the team.

I do give props to Aldis Hodge for the part he played though. He played it spot on INMVHO.

He was recently on James Cordon's late night talk show doing the promotion thing for "Straight out of Compton" and he said that he carried the anger he used on FNL with him because he had "in his mind unfairly" recently been dumped from another role he had been working and was extremely PO'd about that and he used that anger to his advantage for the role.

K/H D

If there's a way to screw something up, the "O'Commie regime" will find it EVERY SINGLE TIME!! Only 73 more days left!

1. He has an authority problem. That will not get him far. I'm willing to bet LSU didn't want him and if they did, they surely didn't keep him. If he can't follow the coach he's toast. End of discussion.

2. He's a racist. He called Reyes a wetback. What if the white players had used the N word on him?

3. Tragedy does not equal entitlement. In fact, he used his "tragedy" to his advantage. That's disgusting. He didn't ask for help, he demanded it.

4. He thought he was the smartest on the team. He clearly didn't get that he's not all that bright. If he had been, he would have handled everything differently.

Quite frankly, he's a thug, plain and simple. I wouldn't be surprised if he carried a gun in his pants. People like that deserve nothing in life.

Random Thoughts: http://goo.gl/eXk3O

I'm glad someone else has said this. I'm getting ready to start a thread on what a cock Coach Taylor is, and having just re-watched some of series 1, the Voodoo situation is a great example.
First of all, let's look at how he ended up at Dillon. Buddy and Coach go to the motel or whatever where the family are staying, Coach clearly doesn't like what he's seeing and hearing, and when the guy doing the talking mentions a guaranteed starting spot, Coach snaps and says that starting spots have to be earned, wishes the family well and leaves. As far as Coach is concerned, that's the last they'll see of each other, and he proceeds to try to get the players he has firing again - hence the wind sprints.
Unfortunately, Voodoo overestimates Coach and thinks this was some great reverse psychology on his part - what does Buddy say - "your speech worked". The look on Taylor's face immediately tells Voodoo that Taylor was being very linear back at the motel - he was giving the speech because he didn't want him there, further empathised when he continues to use Matt during practise.
Voodoo's possibly the only player who's ever been brutally honest with Taylor, and Taylor clearly didn't like it - in fact, Voodoo's "arranged marriage" analogy was quite brilliant. And, I'm only realising this as I'm typing, his closing line was a great reversal/parallel of the end of the speech Taylor had given him in the motel earlier - just replace "join Arnett Mead" with "start Matt Saracen". It's beautiful.
Come the game, and Voodoo quickly becomes dissatisfied with Taylor's utterly ineffectual play calling - the only time they score is when Voodoo takes matters into his own hands and runs his own play - "look at the scoreboard Coach" indeed. It backfires second time he tries it. Taylor's response is to scream "YOU'RE DONE" in his face in front of all his team-mates, making him the villain in all their eyes - great man management skills.....
