Hall and Samuel aren't really the same kind of reciever. Samuel is a guy you get the ball to in open space and see what he does.

Hall is much more of a typical outside speed guy with length.

Samuel doesn't have 100 yards on the season, Hall is 4th in the country. I don't think there's a real comparison. Also personally believe he's still recovering from his injury.

Hall is 4th in the country against mediocre competition. The next 3 games will provide a more realistic measuring stick. Get back to me with updated stats after the Bama game.

I'd just like to point out we literally heard the same thing last season only with a different guy. J'Mon Moore was your clear cut #1 receiver and with very good reason. He had 24 more receptiosn as the next guy on the team, over 200+ yards more than the next guy (eclipsing 1K btw which is impressive), and was the only WR with double digit Touchdowns.

Yet...in last year's game he had 1 catch for 8 yards. How? Well..he was matched up on baker the whole game. Hall went berserk, mainly due to 2 60+ yard TD catches, and he was matched up with malkom parrish all game.

Now having said that, this year we trade out parrish and put in a true freshman. Kinda scary I suppose. But my point is that your #1 receiver that will be matched up baker isn't gonna have nearly the enormous day you think he will. Where you'll succeed and get your yards/points is goign to be your #2/3 receivers and TEs against our other CBs and linebackers. Which is fine, not saying that's bad or anythign, just saying anyone going against baker this year is likely not going to fare very well.
