Top 100 Players in College Football Per ESPN’s

Posted by Adam Butler on March 6, 2010

Joe Shad.  The ranking of Mallett is exciting (and frightening jinx material).

But, if neither Greg Childs nor Joe Adams are among the top 15 WRs in America, I’ll eat my hat….especially if Julio  is included on the list.

Julio (pronounced Jew-Lee-O if you are atrociously bad Reynolds Razorback Stadium PA man John George…..sorry, I just think if you are gonna do P.A. you should know about the players and the games…I’m weird like that) would barely brack the top 5 WRs at the University of Arkansas , right now. 

Take away the name brand and ugly helmet and I think Childs, Adams and Wright are better, and given the opportunity, Cobi Hamilton would be, too.  Sure, call me a homer, but anyone claiming Julio is a superstar based on his actual play on the field the last season and a half is a homer, too.

    Somebody unplug the Julio Jones machine please! Should have happened last year.

    When I do football radio broadcasts at Bentonville, I spend 10 minutes going over the names. And I talk to the opponent’s announcer to get help with tricky ones.

    That’s not too much to ask. Somebody put me in the booth!

    Is this suppose to be a list of top players or just most intersting stories to watch?

    I could see where Julio would be a fairly high interest story due to the hype from his recruitment ranking and being on the national champion. This is his “make or break” year of either breaking out and living up to his potential or be considered a bust. That aspect is even greater since he and AJ Green are always compared due to being in the same class and AJ has been as good as advertised so far.
