It's kinda a homer article--but also hard to disagree with anything the author wrote.
Luck (to use one example) was listed ahead of Tebow--with nearly identical W/L records and passing stats...but minus Tebow's rushing stats or TDs and most importantly, lacking Tebow's 2 National Championships.
While I know it's impossible to truly compare players across different generations and time periods...no matter what metric one wants to use: Tebow deserves to be higher on a list of best **college** players of all time. Two Championships, a Heisman, and record-setting stats (many of which are still top 5-10.)
ESPN Ranks Tim Tebow as the No. 76 College Football Player of All-Time
