Message: [QUOTE="Dadarules, post: 5200533, member: 222"] Aside from a Mr. Boots update (he is still crushing it btw - finishing his masters on a baseball scholly at St. Johns, getting a win closing in the Regionals of the College World Series last spring coming in for the 11th & 12th inning giving up ZERO hits and 2Ks with the season on the line and the team's main closer hitting 95mph with a sick slider and a nice changeup - pitching against Wake on Saturday in fallball, I WILL be there) I rarely - if ever over the past decades of reading here actually START a thread. So I said to my friends on an email kidding around (kinda) that the offensive skill players at SU are a great overall mix, so much so that if any top 25 team swapped out their skill players only with SU they would have the same number or possibly more wins at this point. Now understand that (1) I made this comment acknowledging that I have ABSOLUTELY no idea what I am talking about (2) it wasn't that we have THE BEST collection of talent - these programs have great players that can't earn playing time (like Meeks at UGA) BUT I am making the comment thinking that the overall swap wouldn't negtively impact their records because it is a really good collection of skill players that combined with their overall existing offensive line, defense & special teams woul be productive enough to maintain whatever out comes they have already earned on their own. If you are going to say this is the most uneducated / stupid / just damn dumb concept then GET IN LINE!! I already believe it is. It is based on being happy that we have a group of players who have repeatedly made plays and lots of emotional homerism. Also, I am positive there are better players at this o that positions - I again just wondered that if the collection as a whole is a group that could be swapped out in tier 1 teams with all the existing additional talent and perform at the highest level. I am putting it here because so many here actually COULD tell me how stupid the concept is. Thanks in advance!! [/QUOTE]
