We're talking about the urge to elevate non-SEC players to exalted levels because they're not in the SEC. It happens yearly.
So Jack doesn't deserve the hype?

Who knows? I think he's a great player from what I can tell. Hype is a different matter. Honestly, I don't care if he gets a ton of hype, I'm not anti-Jack.

Jack deserves hype, but he is not the best defensive player in the nation as you stated.
National Football Post (one of the most well respected CFB sources available) from Sports Illustrated has Jack ranked as their 44th best player for next season and has Hundley ranked below Mariota and Winston, along with pretty much every other media outlet.

Is it cool he plays both sides of the ball? Absolutely.

I like Brando. Don't know about his picks, but most people are wrong more often than they are right with these early picks.
