I always had this idea of when Dane Crist came into school, he would be known as
“The Passion” or “The Passion of the Crist” and Michael Floyd is “The Prophet.” “The Passion” to “The Prophet” just has a nice ring to it.

suggestion

what about “Moses” biblical reference there, and much like the original, this guy will lead us to the promised land?

I still like “Photo Op”

“Photo Op” and “Moses” will certainly be on the next poll, as it doesn’t look like this one is going to solve anything either.

Nickname

I was thinking SuperFly. Plays off the last name, and his best play.

At the risk of starting an ND blog war . . .

Kelly Green has named him “Flash Floyd” as in “flash flood warning.” I like that almost as much as I like “St. Michael,” but then I’m biased toward “St. Michael” for obvious reasons.

Your getting it wrong

On the second blog I started the whole St. Michael thing but I meant it only to be simply “The Saint”.

First Down Floyd, clearly this is the only choice worth voting for.
