Beckham and Landry sophomore seasons are far and away better than Bell's. Plus both of those guys were/are an asset on special teams.
2 of Bells 5 career TDs were on trick plays iirc.

Vanderbilt – 977
Florida – 976
Georgia – 976
LSU – 966
Alabama – 963
And our graduation rate for football players was better, as well.
Not that Bama and LSU should get into academic discussions.

Bell doesn't even have the amount of catches in 3 years that Jarvis and OBJ had this one season. Gumps gonna Gump I guess. Kenny Bell is the missing piece to the LSU offensive puzzle.

Big deal...Alabama spreads the ball around more than LSU does so that accounts for the disparity in catches. Amari Cooper is the only receiver Bama has with that many receptions and I don't think you will go so far as to say OBJ and JL are superior to Cooper. Then again, LSU is the fan base who was never real impressed with Julio Jones so nothing surprises me. After Cooper, Bama has Bell, Kevin Norwood, Christion Jones, DeAndrew White, and Marvin Shinn. All have seen significant playing time this year and this doesn't even include the TE and H-B positions which Bama utilizes quite a bit. Don't forget that Bell missed the last 2.5 games which undoubtedly cost him some receptions. Neither JL nor OBJ has the game breaking ability of Kenny Bell. I wouldn't trade Bell for either one and it's apparent yall wouldn't trade either one for Bell. Isn't it nice when things work out and everyone is happy?

Still wouldn't have started at LSU this year....sorry
JL and OBJ are better.....
Good god I cant believe this thread is still going on.
JL is better than Bell, but Bell is better than OBJ.Bell would of started. Period. Im not sure why people think OBJ is some kind of great WR, when hes an average to below average WR. Doesnt catch the ball well enough, not physical when it comes to blocking, when teams press him he gets jammed at the line and has trouble recovering, and has serious confidence issues. The only thing he does well is he runs good routes and he can occasionally break a big play. Thats about it.
And who gives a shite about whose team is smarter than the others in the classroom?? Majority of these guys arent in college for school, so whats the point? Each team has a couple of smart kids, but for the majority they are average students whose #1 priority is football. Not a big deal.

Yes it is.....we just wanted to prove that him going to Bama wasn't that big of a deal.

Still doesn't support the arguement that Bama is ahead of LSU in this dept all the time....right?
They are both decent schools with nothing to really brag about in the scope of academics....yet, if a student so chooses, can offer a great education.

I would say it supports the arguement but concede it doesn't prove the arguement.

I don't know about our fan base but Patrick Peterson sure wasn't, he owned Julio.

RS had more receiving TDs through 3 years than Bell did. That's not counting running the ball for RS.
Sorry brah.

No apology needed...Bama is more than happy with Bell's production and wouldn't trade him for Shepard or OBJ if given the chance. Landry is the only one whose skill set is even close.

He starts for the two time defending champ, but wouldn't for the Chic Fila Bowl runner up. Another great call from Steve.
So you think all Bama players are better because y'all have backed into two titles?

what a dumb statement. Posted on 1/10/13 at 4:40 pm to samson73103

FWIW...I think Landry is an excellent receiver but not better than Bell at this point. He could be by the time he exhausts his eligibility but the jury is still out on that. But OBJ, while having his moments in 2011, was anything but impressive this year. He regressed and insisting he's better than a receiver who averaged 25.4 yrds per catch paints you as a complete homer or just downright stupid.
Really? Landry has more catches , THIS YEAR, than bell does in his ENTIRE CAREER. gumps gonna gump

Yeah, that is a dumb statement as well...
