The Truth: Nick Brossette's Patience Pays Off
THE FIRST TOUCHDOWN of Nick Brossette’s LSU career was, like everything else in Nick Brossette’s LSU career, an exercise in patience.
With 45 seconds left in the first quarter of his 36th game as a Tiger, Brossette raced 50 yards to put his team ahead 10-3, giving them a lead they would not relinquish in a 33-17 win over No. 8 Miami on Sunday night in Arlington. His first trip to the end zone since the 141 he made over his last four years at University High School on LSU’s campus – a figure that still stands as a Louisiana high school state record – the score showcased the primary weapon in Brossette’s arsenal: his patience.
