He was a baller for sure.

Full control of the football while a foot is inbounds.
He pushes off with his right foot just to make the catch. Doesn't even cradle the ball until he's already out of the end zone.

Not sure what else you want.
Well, I tried. :shrug:

I think it could maybe, possibly be a decent debate, but to sit there and say that that is 100 percent not a catch is foolish at best.

He was a fun one to watch.

I really wasn't watching college football when he was at LSU, but from my reading and the relatively sparse youtube clips of him, I'd say Bert Jones probably had more arm talent than virtually anyone.
Jamarcus Russell is one of the few people who might have been able to throw a football farther. But he definitely didn't have the release and accuracy and especially velocity (somehow).
Jones was pretty mobile too. He had an NFL career that was relatively short, some really good years, but I personally wouldn't say he was an all timer.
I'd have to find the interview again, but Bill Belichick pretty much said the same stuff about Bert Jones in an interview. Maybe not the best qb of all time, but as far as physical tools to be an NFL guy he was on the same level as Bradshaw, Luck, Elway.
But I'd rather have Cam, Tebow, Matt Jones, even Manziel. Mobility kills.

I'd probably have to go with Matt Leinart. It was a lot of fun watching him and he's a lefty like me.
In terms of the SEC, it'd probably be Tim Couch. He gets shite on a lot for his pro career, but he was a hell of a college QB and reignited excitment in Kentucky football.

I know I'm going way, way back, but...Joe Theismann. He was unheralded at first but it wasn't long before he became the best QB in the land. It was a crime for him not to win the Heisman in 1970, but Jim Plunkett was the son of two blind parents of Mexican and American Indian ancestry.
I can't imagine the mind-boggling pain his career ending compound fracture, bleeding with him howling in pain, must have caused him.

Tommy Hodson. Loved him growing up.

Not even sure what you're looking at. That's a catch if replayed by ref crew. 100%.
