Reggie Wayne

Kevin Bowen ‏@KBowenColts 

Pagano says Reggie Wayne has spent more time in the facility then anyone with rehab, meeting time and just mentoring the young @Colts WRs

 

I just want to give props to this guy. What a great leader. I can't wait to see him back on the field next season.

[CR91]

hes done a terrific job with our young wrs

[GoColts8818]

Coach Wayne has done a great job with these kids!

Earlier this year I said Luck needed to make others around him better after Wayne went down to do the things we wanted this team to do. It took a while (like I figured it would) but over the past month he's done a great job of making others better!

He has found his post playing days career

I really hope so.

[jmac_48]

Yeah, I heard a blip yesterday that this young WR group has been the first in every day for practice and the last to leave.

The results are showing up on the field, I think this exemplifies the influence of Reggie on this group!

 

Reggie is the ultimate TEAM leader, on and off the field.

He could have gone home to Miami and felt sorry for himself.

That's not the man he is.

 

Kudos Reggie!

[LockeDown]

The media keeps saying Hilton is the only talent we have at WR. Double him and were done. Can't wait to prove them wrong.

[21isSuperman]

I can't wait to see how Rogers does with Wayne coaching him.  Rogers has all the physical talents you could want; he's big, fast, strong, etc.  If he improves his route running and stays consistent, he could be really good

[Pelt]

I definitely hope Reggie stays on as a receivers coach after his playing days are done.

Grouch.

Just by being our assistant WR coach, look how awesome our WR's are playing. Don't know how much credit Wayne deserves for this, but he demonstrates his greatness in every way possible.

[Johnny Bui]

TY, Brazil and Whalen definitely gotten better under Reggie's guidance.  Rogers is doing well too, but i want to see Luck give him more opportunity. I think if Rogers caught the back shoulder in the end zone luck would have looked at him more.  Rogers did give us a spark with that insane catch down field though. Kudos

[James]

Reggie should be extended. 2 years. He can still be productive.

[Poster X]

that will not happen

What other kind of info do you have... any good stock, or lottery numbers?

nope

[FearTheNeckBearded]

He will be whatever he wants to be, the guy works hard and we love him.

[SLILLINGTON10]

Reggie Wayne as OC in a couple years!

[SteelCityColt]

that will not happen

 

Reasoning for this?

[Smonroe]

that will not happen

yes it will

[Maniq]

that will not happen

Could easily. Look how he cannot let go of the other WRs. Look how he is mentoring them. Look how he is all over the field cheering when the team does good. It has coach written all over it.

[Cynjin]

Reasoning for this?

 

Dudeski's general negative outlook on life.

[dudeski]

Reasoning for this?

the dude is rich

When he retires he won't want to put in the insane amount of hours a coach does. It's not hard to figure out people

[stupidmg]

If we go to the SB, would he play?

I no that he has a season ending injury.

But many cases in the past showed us that human can do sth improbable when the desire of doing that thing is really strong

Like Rod woodson who tore his ACL earlier the year, he started SB XXX and played pretty well.

So I would like to no wt's on Reggie's mind?

By the same token he has no motivation to put the hours in  now, in fact even less as a injured player. That's before we get into coaches who are pretty darn rich but still seem to put in the hours. All about desire and love for the game, if he's got it and wants to step into the coaching side I'm sure he will find a home here.

 

Either way I doubt anyone is in a position to say for absolute and to refer back to the original post, it would just be nice to see a Colt legend return as a coach. 

[lollygagger8]

Reggie is the man on and off the field. I really hope he comes back strong next year because he deserves it. f I was Irsay, I'd pay him whatever he wants to come back as a WR coach when Wayne decides to hang up his cleats.

Here is an article on Waynes contributions to coaching the WRs.

[IndyD4U]

I've seen Reggie and Pagano talking quite a bit during the games. The guy needs to go straight to coaching once he hangs up the cleats.

I suppose the argument would be that they didn't earn as much in their playing careers, and of course there is the thought that a career in broadcasting would be more lucrative financially.

Some guys want to coach.  The money doesn't matter to them.  Harbaugh is a good example because he made enough money in the pros to retire for the rest of his life.  But he took a job at a university where it has to be very hard to recruit.  Then he turned around a pro program.

 

I really don't know if Reggie will want to coach when he retires.  No one does.  I don't even know if he's a good coach.  But you can't deny his attitude is infectious.  It has to be a positive for our young receivers.

:mod:  No positive sentiments allowed in this thread! You should know better ;)

[Hoosiernsavga]

Reggie is one of the many reasons why I'm very proud to be a Colts fan!

[buck_hunter21]

Reggie is a fantastic representation of what being a Colt is all about. 

[Bluefire4]

Reggie said he'd be ready at the beginning of training camp. Can't wait to get him back!

[BPM_Colt]

Respect to Reg. Can't wait to see him back on the field next year

[dw49]

I think he would be passing up too much money as an ESPN guy. He's nice looking , great smile , intelligent and a great person.
