The Blue Board

Look, I realize Winston is potentially FSU's best QB prospect EVER.

From everything I have seen and heard about him, he is everything you could want in a QB and kid. He could easily end up having a Cam Newton type impact on your program, without the character issues and drama.

He is a 5 star Blue Chip potential NFL starter. No doubt

But you can't elevate HIM to such a high level, based on NOTHING but HS ranking and film, and on the other hand just completely dismiss the USC kids.

You seem to want it both ways, and I am not going to let you have it both ways

Coker? Please. Now you are just being silly. He didn't even get offers from the two in state schools or hardly any other top schools. He would NEVER have even sniffed an offer from USC and neither would any of your other QB's, besides Winston, including E J Manuel. I know he was highly ranked, but he would not play at USC, and has been pretty disappointing, ESPECIALLY when compared to Barkley

USC has the probable Number 1 Draft pick in next years draft at QB and three highly rated QB's waiting in line.

This thread is about position GROUPS, and USC's is far better, and truthfully, I would be surprised if an impartial panel would put FSU's group in the top 10 in the country.

But as a CFB fan, I am REALLY looking forward to seeing Jamies Winston play in the next few years, and would not be surprised if he is starting by the end of this season.

He would Red Shirt at USC

UGA's strongest position would have to be LB. Probably the best corp and best individual in college next season, thanks to Jarvis Jones and Alec Ogletree, amongst others.

Jarvis is the best defensive player in the country, and I would like to track down the USC Doctor that refused to clear him and cut off his nut sack, if he has one.

They "CALLED" you LBU for a reason. Not any more.

I apologize. It took me a few days to realize I was arguing with an imbecile
This thread was about which position will be the strongest on your team.
Now you want to take Matt Barkley out of the discussion?
I also apologize for ASSUMING I would get am intelligent discussion on this board.
I frequent USC boards mostly, plus Miami Scout and Arkansas Scout, and while I disagree with a lot of the posters on thise boards, and them with me, for the most part, most of the posters on those boards can carry on an intelligent discussion
You are PITIFUL
And It isn't my fault that your school has sucked at developing QB's and Chris Rix was a bust at the college level.

Also, Coker had NO offer from Alabama or Auburn

This is from the Alabama Scout archives Notice they offered Kessler and NOT Coker

Agreed.

had one from bama, not auburn

also picked up one from lsu

I think we did offer it was at the last minute because we needed a QB after we missed out on a few, he stuck with fsu and we ended up with ely .

That is exactly what happened

Kid was a die hard Bama fan but loved Jimbo and Craig so he stuck with us

And not to be a dick but if you hadn't missed on others you would have taken him over Ely

Coker was missed by most schools cause he never passed the ball in high school but the kid is a good one and Cutcliff and Jimbo thought so and that is enough for me

6'5" 235 with 4.6 speed and can jam a basketball is about as good an athlete as you can get at QB

I know. I prefered Coker and even more after watching Ely in the Army All American game.

QB, RB, CB should be Michigan's strong suit. Probably LB also as they don't lose anyone there.

I included the Oline also. The B1G Network talked about them being one of the best in the B1G next year. The only question mark is at center. Granted that question mark is trying to replace the rimington award winner.
