Corey Broomfield, a rising senior cornerback for Mississippi State, is one of the funniest and most quotable players on the team. His teammates call him "Unc" because they think he looks much older than he is. And he lives up to the name in other ways – for the longest time, he would carry a portable CD player around with him.

Broomfield recently upgraded to an iPhone, just got around to joining Facebook, and said he sees "no need" to get a Twitter account. We had a fun conversation with Broomfield after Thursday's practice, and you can see the video if you CLICK HERE.

His fellow starting cornerback, Johnthan Banks, talked about Broomfield yesterday. "He's a weird guy. But he's a good guy," Banks said. To watch Banks on video, CLICK HERE.

Both guys are 24-karat gold quotes, especially when the topic is Broomfield's idiosyncrasies. Oh, and his laugh will brighten even your worst day. So, enjoy.
