Ryan Mallett's Scooter Gives SEC Fans A Head Start On Next Season's Taunts

Arkansas quarterback Ryan Mallett is getting around campus on a special scooter designed to keep his left foot off the ground. (Because a Rascal wasn't dorky enough?) I'm sure it won't come up during road games next fall. [Mr.Sec/Arkansas News]
