Greg Matthews ahead of Hartline? Cam Heyward 3rd team all Big-10? Like I said, his rankings are usually poor. It's the amount of info that makes his mag special.

I always get Phil Steele's magazine. People do the same thing every year, complain about his rankings, but when the dust settles, his are closer than the rest of the preseason magazines.
I AM like a lot of you, I could really do without the article that will no doubt be in this years magazine that praises his success. He always says "I had Ohio State as one of my strongest dark horse teams, when no other team had them ranked in the top 25. They went on to win the Nation...." blah blah blah.
Dude, we know you're good, that's why your magazine sells.
Also, I would pay $5 more for the magazine if every 10 pages wasn't an ad for "Sum Doosh, the Best Handicapper! Five 90-Star picks,....EVERY WEEK! 61.58% over the last 4 years!" Ugh.
Those are my only gripes, I enjoy the magazine thoroughly. I'm getting Blue Ribbon in the mail this year as well, and Phil Steele's was mailed out today. Already have Lindy's and Athlon's sucks anyway.

In other words he thinks he's one of the top four backs in the Big XII. Doesn't seem unreasonable. Running back is the easiest position to come in as a freshman and make an impact(it happens every year) and the Big XII is pretty thin at running back after the departure of Charles, Temple and Patrick. I really don't see four backs in that conference that I can say for sure are better and I definitely don't think there are four that have more talent. I fully expect him to go over 1,000 yards and I wouldn't be totally shocked if he made first team. |
