I was going to say, what if he goes to Oregon, and they don't make the national championship at all. Would anyone remember him then?
If you would have read what lead up to the actual point, it would have made sense.
THIS. I know it's the Harrison Barnes argument, but being one of many studs at Bama or Oregon vs the ****ing man at a school like ISU.
Though Troy Davis would have won the Heisman if he was at Texas or Oklahoma.
Abort argument.
I got the point. My point was 99.9% of people won't remember either in a year or two.
I remember Darren Davis making a hell of a TD catch against Wyoming (and we ended up losing that heart-breaker).
I don't recall 1 Julio Jones' play from his college career.
It's because I'm a Cyclone I suppose.

Think that help will consist of who can come out the current OL as solid contributors & combine that with the 2013 class (Campos, Curtis, Homa, Severs, Glenn) and go from there. Burton, Dagel, Lalk, Omoile, Williams, Dunning - someone from there.
Most every young man thinks that he can conquor the world. The blue-blood recruiter comes along, tells the kid that he is good enough to get alot of playing time right after the redshirt year (whether that is true or not) on a team that will consistently be on the "good" TV channels, and be in the national spotlight contending for a national championship. Once those kids are in the door, the blue-blood "system" is very good at keeping them around and disuading them from transferring (in most cases).
Apparently, it is a pretty successful sales pitch, since the blue blood programs continue stacking 4* and 5* players three-deep on their rosters. You have to be a very well grounded and self-aware young man to assess whether what that recruiter says is true or if he is just blowing smoke.

I get the feeling that the reason Mister is locked onto ISU is because the coaches swayed him with playing right away. If he is good enough, I'm all for it.
And the fact that at least some of those programs may be dropping major coin in the pockets of top (or even not top) recruits.
While Mister said the .1 percent would be something like the Penn State issue, I get the feeling that both him and Lazard want to play for Paul Rhodes. Unless he is fired, quits, or otherwise leaves the job before signing day, they will be Cyclones.
that may not be true. part of the reason he wss special at iows state was he could make something out of nothing. At Texas he wouldn't have gotten all the carries. Tesas just needs someone fast to run through a big hole.Though Troy Davis would have won the Heisman if he was at Texas or Oklahoma.
