Position U: ESPN doles out the grades

[78]

Rating the positions by schools since 1998.

We're apparently not DBU after all. Fourth behind Ohio State, LSU and Alabama.

Don't agree with the DL rating or notables list for that matter. How does Polite rate mention over Fowler?

Position U: Which schools produce the most talent at each position

 

[BruceWayne]

I think it's a matter of opinion when it comes to talent of the DBs. I still like our DBs better than those other schools. Eli Apple from Ohio State? C'mon I'll take any of our elite corners over him.

We made the top 10 in a lot of these position groups. QBs, WRs. Of course Bama gets the O-line and D-line and that's the whole game right there.

Stats and recency bias.

I sure wish we were Championship U again instead of DBU.

Did you mean"Recruiting Championship University"?

Any mention of us being QBU....ya know Grier and all..

Yeah, you gotta start there.

Not really but at least close to the top, that is about the same number of blue chip kids.

You see, one of us has it backwards; I think you start by winning and then become competitive in ultra blue chip recruits.

Eight grades. We made three of five of them on offense, all three on defense.

More glaring was the "notable" athletes on offense. Only two from the last decade.

We can do better than that. We better.

Other than Fowler or VHIII, We’ve had nobody elite at any position.

Remarkable.

We are definitely “quarterbacks that go elsewhere to shine U.”

This article went back all the way from 1998. We've had a few more elite players than that. Joe Haden? Carlos Dunlap? I would call them elite. Reggie Fn Nelson. We could probably name a few more "elite" players from our DB or DL units all the way from '98.

I was quoting his comment about the last decade.

We are definitely “quarterbacks that ingest lots of coke in order to shine U.”
