'13 PA WR Tyler Boyd

[LotteryPick]

People crack me up expecting freshman to have an immediate impact in the SEC.

 

[Vols4us]

Vincent Dallas was a highly touted freshman at one time too, you know.

We don't need every player to be a star the second they step on campus. It's nice and all, but development is good when you're behind players who know the playbook and have experience in the system and on the field.

This.

Dallas will break out this season. People forget he was offered at UF, AU, Oklahoma, etc. Quality player that should do well this season. Add in Pig, Bowles, Croom, Carter, etc. and more use of the RBs and TE in the passing game with the Jones' offense. They will be fine.

He is a redshirt freshman, not a true freshman

Not necessarily the argument, but ok.

Shall I continue?

It isn't the norm but there have been plenty of impactful freshmen at skill positions in the SEC in recent years.

Is it just me or does #4 Georgia player's jersey look orange and other look red as it should be?

How many had first round NFL draft picks ahead of them.

How many had first round NFL draft picks ahead of them.

How many had any round NFL draft picks ahead of them?

I didn't read last page, and assumed people were questioning Boyd's ability to make an impact. Pig didn't really have the opportunity last year.. I agree 100%

Yes, please continue.

And I said "expect." I never said there wasn't a chance for an immediate impact. Reading comprehension.

I almost went this route. Should have known people would make a big deal about being a redshirt or not.

Guess what, the first time you step onto an SEC field and contribute, or dominate in these cases, is a big deal - it doesn't really matter whether you're 18 or 19.

I posted quickly on a phone and did not notice the period. You are sad little man my friend.

If a kid is highly recruited and touted out of high school then I believe even the coaches expect him to make an impact

You can't be serious. How can you not see tge difference between somebody that had just gotten to campus a couple of months before the season to somebody that has had an entire year with the playbook, in a college S&C program, and a spring with the 1s. There is a huge difference between a redshirt and true freshman.

I changed first to any to elaborate on your point. I don't care about your punctuation...

Dude don't waste your time arguing. If they show you one or two freshman they think they made their point as if its the norm. There is a big difference and you showed that. This is the same group of yahoos that thinks BJ should have a class full of five stars or he can't recruit.

 

[LawsonVFL]

If Butch pulls off North, Boyd, and Jenkins to go with Harris, that'll be one hell of a haul.

 

[RockyTop85]

AggieNation circa Jan. 2012:

"That Johnny Manziel was a bust. We never should have taken such a short quarterback. If he couldn't start as a true freshman over a top 10 draft pick, we don't even need him on the team. The SEC is going to kill us next year. Cut him now."

Dumbasses gonna dumbass.

 

[Coach Punk]

Officially jumping on the Boyd Bandwagon. Actually seem plausible, now.

its you

Or let's get two stud WR's

4 Stud WR's counting Jenkins and Harris. Even Smith looks like he will be a good player as well. This WR class could be one of our best ever, from a potential standpoint.

Would be mighty enticing for an elite QB to look our way next year with these weapons
