SEC Top 30....Chris Low

Berry is solid, he is the best NFL prospect in the SEC for sure, so the conflict Chris had with Berry and Jevan is a joke.

Berry is the better ball player. Tebow is good, but the spread makes him look better than he is.

Looks pretty good to me. Man i hope we pull an upset in the swamp this year. Im so frickin tired of hearing about Tebow and Oscar Meyer, gives me a headache.

I'm pretty surprised that Gerald Jones and Major Wright didn't make the list. Eric Berry is good where he's at. Saying Tebow is only good in the spread is like saying Berry is only good in a 4-3. I can't get enough of Eric Berry, but I am a Vol who can admit that Tebow is probably the best CFB player I will ever see.

Next year's list will have Chris Walker, Bryce Brown and hopefully Gerald Jones or another receiver.

Except the 4-3 has nothing to do with what the DBs do and the spread has everything to do with what the QB does.

In all honestly, I don't think the G Jones has done enough to deserve mention as a top 30 player in the SEC. To be fair, he was hampered by the QB play last year, but regardless of QB play, he'll need to start making explosive plays to be on this kind of list.

What are you talking about? 4-3, 3-4, and 3-3 all have a lot to do with defensive assignments. I am not arguing against Berry. All I am saying is how do you know Tebow is only good in the spread when that is all you've seen?

I agree, but I think of the list as a list of top 30 talents. There is no way I take McCluster (who made the list) over G Jones if I'm putting together a team. What would Snead do, throwing to G Jones?

Those pairs of numbers describe the number of linemen and linebackers. Has nothing to do with defensive backs besides the number of them.

The idea of Tim Tebow as a pro-style quarterback is highly debatable.

Have you ever played safety? Have you ever switched between 3 and 4 linebackers? Your coverage assignment changes based on what the linebackers are doing. It's different. Especially in a 3-3-5, which many colleges run.

The main reason Tebow hasn't played pro-style is they have been weak at RB. This year they are stronger at that position and lo and behold, Meyer has confidence in Tebow to put him under center. We'll see how it works. All I am saying is we don't know. We haven't seen. Meyer is smarter (football mind)than me, and has seen.

Well because he is projected to be a te or fb in the pros is one indicator. But I'm sure you know more than pro scouts.

Again that has to do with number and where the linemen and linebackers align. Tells me nothing about what the dbs actually DO. The bottom line is Eric Berry can excel in any defense but Tim Tebow to many does not project well to every offense.

Sounds like Timmy wants to play QB in the pros and who are we to bet against him?? Will it work out...hard to say, but I won't be lining up to say he can't do it.

I can't help but remember that game against Michigan. When Tebow had to drop back and pass to win the game, he crumbled. He was backpedalling, shying away from hits.

sometimes I think Low writes crap like that just because everyone knows he is a Tennessee homer...so, to come off as unbiased, he will write some ignorant crap like that...to even suggest that Jevan Snead is better than Berry, based on their production thus far, is crazy.

The most distressing thing about this article is not that Berry barely beat Snead for the #2 spot, but that Chris only placed one UT player in the top 30. Even Kentucky had two on the list...:banghead2:

"Best CFB player you will ever see"...

I'll grant you that.

Tebow is, will be, whatever, an NFL bust (at QB). First off, Michael Vick proved that the spread offense won't work in the NFL. Oh...so did Vince Young.

I live for the day that Tebow takes off up the middle against the Steeler defense. That should break him of that habit.

Put the UF offense in the NFL, and Tebow is on the DL by Week 3, and the "Meyer's" finish the season at 4-12.

Eric Berry can, and will, light up the NFL.

Think "Leaf -vs- Manning". Tell me, who's still in the league?

Go Vols.
