D.J. was a different animal. Easily one of my favorite players of all time. He had those clemson boys punked and scared before the game started.

D.J. set the tone. I still think he doesn't get enough credit for his play at USC
DJ is a one of a kind....he's a fierce dude, still is
His legend is growing with the passage of time, awesome clip
He was that guy that every other team absolutely HATED. But he was our guy, and we absolutely LOVED him! 
We should hire him immediately after his NFL career
Always grateful for DJ but it was talent that won that night, not attitude. Our DLine manhandled them all night and the O struck at opportune times. Better team won.
He BROUGHT a MEAN Attitude. Liberals today would Hate him!!
I never realized how nonchalant the hit was. Usually when two players collide, they both absorb some impact. Ellington blew up and Swag just shrugged him off. If I remember correctly, he got a PI later and a pick 6 on the next play with a 15 yard celebration penalty. His attitude sealed it though. Never did two major penalties help the team they penalized more than DJ's, since his ruthless attitude would turn the game.
DJ set the tone of the game before it started, just like how Clemson did the last couple of years, calling our players the “n” word pre-game jaw chewing...

He got 15 yards for flexing after this hit. And it was so worth it!

Don't discount the mental advantage. We were in their heads during that run. Much the same way CRT was in JackLegg's head.
Idk but looking at those fan day pics Belk looks like a giant
I hope our plays don’t need a camera and just kick their az
Absolutely had he been at Georgia or Clemson, he would have been public enemy number 1. But for us he is THAT DUDE!!!!!He was that guy that every other team absolutely HATED. But he was our guy, and we absolutely LOVED him!
I bought the art work and gave it to my dad!
He puts it out with the Christmas decorations. It’s the most wonderful time of the year
Awwww this is so cute
I met HBC at a conference about 1& 1/2 years ago & he mentioned this sequence of plays by DJ. He giggled a little bit.
The time he threw ball in the stands in one of my favorite moments in Gamecock history.
While I wish we had some of this fire now...
It's a lot easier to act and play with this kind of swagger when you know you're better than the opponent. We ain't better than them now.
People always say the same about the baseball team. It was easier to have swag when you had 5-6 future big leaguers on the team

DJS is one of my favorite Gamecocks ever. I heard Boyd talking about why he never played well against us. He recalled this incident where Swearinger ran thru their warmups. But he said DJ actually intercepted a practice pass. If this is the same incident then he remembers it wrong. He was really rattled every time we saw him. He couldn't set his feet because he knew he was getting popped on almost every drop back. When we had them in a situation where they had to pass or lose the game, no taters wanted the ball over the middle. They got alligator arms. And we were so good at the corners they had to throw there.
