Oh. So you've got the biggest bust in NFL history, a punt returner, and a guy who's famous for getting fined.

I'm sorry. I thought we were talking about widely known players.

Who can State claim?

And I'm pretty sure Cobb set the record for longest kick return this year...in his first NFL game ever.

Trey Williams is a 5 star and is the second best RB on Rivals I believe nehind Jonathan Gray. Marion Grice I believe is the top JUCO RB this year on Rivals. Malena wasn't highly touted but looked decent in starting our bowl game and the fateful Thanksgiving game.

We also have OU transfer Brandon Williams (5 star recruit last year) coming and there's an outside chance he gets a hardship waiver

I know it's a long shot, but I really hope Trey Williams flips to Arkansas. Very impressive video. I think he's coming for an official visit in a few weeks.

Y'all have Bralon Addison coming in as well, which also worries me. Williams is small but runs exactly like Darren Sproles, and could end up being a similar size once he fills out. We will be sweating out his trips to Fayetteville and Stillwater for sure.

a lot of young guys. good thing yall have that experienced OLine to lean on. those guys are gonna be tested and i think in some ways their performance will be indicative of the difference between Big 12 and SEC football. everybody always talks about the size and speed of the front sevens in the SEC. i'm interested to see how much fight these texas boys have in them. yall might wanna take them down to Junction and make sure they're ready to rumble.

I think our O Line will fare well, its our D Line that will have a ton of problems. We've run well against Arkansas and we ran surprisingly well against LSU in the Cotton Bowl last year (29 for 155). Our defense in the trenches is where the worst growing pains will happen.

I'd like to consider myself a fairly educated college football fan, but Who?
I mean I could google them but certainly Randall Cobb is a bigger name than any of these guys. Tim Couch, sure huge NFL bust but we're talking about top NCAA players, not NFL draft picks! frick, Lorenzen is a bigger name if only because he's memorable. Not a MSU flame because I actually like your team and the Grindin' Campaign, but these guys do not make your point valid.

McCalleb (sp?) belongs on that list if nobody has mentioned him already. He's a game breaker

O Mac just needs to get stronger - he's a little light in the britches still but if he gets the corner there isn't a better back to have in there because his speed is world class.

I have no idea what to expect from Knile. I thought Greg Childs would be a top receiver this year. Is Dennis Johnson still around?


Yeah, he'll be a senior. Unfortunately Wingo still is too

Having knile back will at least balance our offense out and not have everyone focus on the pass

Yeah, guess I should clarify:

I know the players that I need to know about, on the other SEC teams. Know more Auburn and LSU players, than I do Kentucky or Vandy Players.

So, tell me...is Chase Daniels still Missouri's QB?
