Should definitely be Vince Mayle.

S – Gerod Holliman, Louisville

This should be Landon Collins.

I realize Gerod Holliman had 14 interceptions, but he can't tackle and he's not very athletic. The was a scout that ragged on him pretty bad to RotoWorld. I'll post and link below:

quote:

Louisville redshirt sophomore S Gerod Holliman "is horrible," according to one anonymous scout who spoke with Bob McGinn.

"He needs to go back to school," the scout said. "He can't make a tackle to save his life. He's got pretty good instincts but he's not that athletic." Holliman has made headlines after recording 14 interceptions this season while playing single high safety and corner. Rotoworld's Josh Norris has frequently pointed to Holliman's poor tackling, as he tends to lead with only one shoulder and lacks aggression to finish. We would not go as far to say he is "horrible," however.

SEC Coaches thought pretty highly of him, too

---

Let's be real. Their list was an abortion this year... They had John Mincy listed on there. JOHN MINCY. Pretty much everyone on here agreed that it was bad.

quote:

---

Laugh all you want, he was better than any OL Auburn had this year.

---

You have no way to measure this, but I doubt he was better than Reese Dismukes, and I would put Avery Young right up there with the best of them.

quote:

---

He had an incredible year and dominated pretty much every week.

---

Incredible enough to be a 1st team All-American? I'll disagree and leave it at that.

Robert Nkemdiche is only on that list because of the hype. He isn't very good.

quote:

---

Lets be real, everyone but you feels he was good enough.

---

Yea, you probably assume Duke Williams being snubbed was also accurate, right? John Mincy being named to an All-SEC team after not only a terrible season, but career? Laremy Tunsil not being 1st team All-SEC? Trey DePriest being a 1st team linebacker when Reggie Ragland had an outstanding, and better, season? What about having no Alabama defensive linemen on the 1st or 2nd team? I'll be the first to admit AT LEAST one should have made it.

quote:

---

Maybe they aren't the ones with the problems.

---

Settle down, Jeremy.

USA today has a strict no racists policy. Hence no Dismukes.

DL – Shane Ray, Missouri

Indeed... he gets his Masters Saturday!

Congratulations all around to Arie!
