Accumlative affect in my comments but you are correct. I agree that all is not unjust but some are and it does need to stop. The sunshine pumping comes from leading experts saying he is a possible A-A, Heisman and 1st round draft pick candidate. That's not us sunshine pumpers. I think a lot of people are still upset about the last play and losing to Michigan (or other) which is understandable but some comments are downright disrespectful.
But here is the thing… experts are wrong too, and like buzzard has hinted at some can’t afford to say something negative about a guy because it affects their business. Case in point Josh Pate won’t say anything negative or that contradicts what Dennis Dodd or Gary Danielson says because of the CBS umbrella over his company. How many times has Dodd said something so ridiculous that everyone with a brain knew it was wrong but all of the sudden you see Pate defending him on his show?
As for preseason Heisman and All American ratings… I just don’t know if they are anything more reliable than a preseason poll by the AP. It’s usually a lazy forecast based on last year. Could Milroe achieve those distinctions? Sure and absolutely, but how it’s being presented by some is like we should expect some Joe Burrow like 2nd year transformation. I just don’t know if that’s realistic at this point but still possible.
As for 1st round talent… I think that’s a stretch. But then again Anthony Richardson is a first rounder so it’s still possible. As is I see Milroe as your typical late 2nd rounder to 3rd rounder kinda of quarterback. But then again Antony Richardson so….
