WR Aaron Gregory is drawing universally effusive praise early on at A&M.

What about other schools?

For LSU so far, it's probably Deuce Geralds.

I scrolled through the first 10 names on the A&M roster and saw a Kelshaun, Kiotti, Dezz, Tawfiq.

You’re an idiot.

Yall had two guys named Shemar who played the exact same position on the same team. Your statement is true for every CFB program except for BYU.

You can thank him for derailing an otherwise legitimate football thread

He wasn't really interested in anyone else's players, he just wanted to brag about the freshman guy at A&M and disguised it as if he was interested in learning about other players.

Nailed it.



BTW, our freshmen have been re-evaluated and are now all 5 stars.

To be fair, the one who started the thread isn't the idiot who derailed it.

It seems like it is always a WR early in practice (at every school) because most of the work is done without pads and they do lots of seven on seven.

The other thing you hear about with other players is about their size... how they have "NFL bodies"...look like they were "built in a lab"... and stuff like that.

The cliches change... I remember thirty years ago freshmen were "the REAL deal"... but over many decades of hearing this stuff... I take spring practice and even fall camp hype with a complete grain of salt.

Being an authority in what interests me, I can say to 100% certainty that your take is shite.

I think that's right.

Anybody at OU getting lots of comments from coaches?
