Sean Miller too. And it sounds like several more that were never released to the public.Well Will Wade is on tape doing the exact opposite of what he told the FBI. He said he didn’t know the informant but he’s on tape talking to the guy and saying how he overpaid for players.
We have had numerous teams that were only marginally less talented than UF over the past 10 years, but it's mostly mental at this point. Their players come into the game knowing they're going to win. Dramatically changes how you play the game.
Also, Tiger is the goat -- come on. Yes, Nicklaus didn't have the equipment, but the field was much easier back then, too. I'd love to see Ovechkin barreling over nerds in Gretzky's era. Equipment helps, but the game is much more advanced today as well.

I see the analogy, but I don't really agree it is very comparable. Played a lot of baseball growing up and, yes, seeing pitchers over and over you can learn tendencies (though they learn yours too). But college QBs typically improve over time and with experience. They have tendencies too and you can scout them, but your options are limited. They are throwing to (supposedly) open receivers, not trying to throw it past you.
Really hope Trask steps back, but given his minimal experience and quick success in Y1, I'd say his trajectory is skewed toward improving over regressing.
I might be more optimistic if his season was scattered with variance and he only showed up a couple games that skewed things. Yet, he only had 1 game with a sub 144 qbr. That was a 131 qbr bowl game vs UVA, where he still threw for 305 yards. Hate to say it, but he impressed me, outside of the UK game, last year.
Mike Trout is unappreciated...now you lost it.I agree. I get the whole “those players didn’t have the technology and training as today’s do” argument to an extent but there’s some athletes that are just different and you can tell in any time period. Mike Trout is one of those guys and it’s crazy how unappreciated he is. He’s on the same level as Jordan, tiger, lebron, Federer etc and no one really cares.
