Agree. Until then, we'll just have to talk trash and keep beating LSU. ...
[quote]ou are on the money with the first part of your post, but I don't understand why everyone thinks Gruden is going to be a really good recruiter. Nick Saban is not a great recruiter because he has a great TV personality and has a big-time name. Saban is a great recruiter, because he is a tirel...
Everything right now points to Gruden. I'll go with it....
College football is as much about talent as it is coaching. That's why Saban was just "good" at Michigan State. He gets elite level talent LSU and Bama and he wins 10+ a year. Les Miles goes from good to elite after moving from Okie Lite to LSU. If Gruden is as good as a recruiter as many believ...

[quote]Sorry broskie but I gotta call you out here. You're the one who wants to rate Poo Richardson over Knile Davis, despite the fact Davis had nearly twice as many rushing yards and better YPC average than Richardson did last year. If what really matters is what someone has done, then Davis has to...

[quote]Good returner or not, you don't put a lockdown corner on returns nowadays...[/quote] Yeah, never worked out for Deion Sanders, the greatest lockdown corner in the history of the game. And don't throw the "nowadays" word back at me. Deion played in the 90's. It ain't ancient history....
Patrick Peterson A lock-down, cover corner that can take away one side of the field makes it easier across the board. Plus, the guy is the best return man in the draft....
When it's all said and done, I think Cobi will be the best one of the bunch. He's the most athletic, fastest in straightline speed, has the best hops, and probably makes the difficult catch easier (though Childs is very good at that). Cobi is 1st round talent. Childs is first talent if he bounce...

Arkansas, LSU, and Bama all could have improved defenses from last year- and all three were pretty good last year. Bama and LSU's were extremely good last year. Arkansas will be more athletic and more experienced. They will be better. Arkansas, LSU, and Bama all could have NC type of teams, but ...
If you listen to the players, they love Evans. They have a lot of respect for him. The players have said the biggest problem is that Pel wouldn't let Evans do anything. Evans was the most accomplished coach on that staff, but was basically told to keep his mouth shut. We would have been a lot mor...
[quote]Because of it being Anderson? Would they have had as big of a deal for Buzz Williams or somebody else? Did Pel and Heath have big press conferences. [/quote] This was more of a pep rally and a "welcome home" party for Anderson. ...
[quote]Unrelated post as mine usually are but I enjoyed the Mike Anderson quote something to the effect of "If you see me and a bear get in a fight, you better help the damn bear."
