Congrats to Steve Ishmael!

He's just some pure speed away from being the total package.

True, but he makes up for it by being a very physical WR and has great hands. He will definitely be playing Sunday.

I like it.

Could have and should have been a second team AA. Nonetheless, congrats to Ish on a great career.

If you're a receiver and want to be recognized among the countries best, you should start looking at SU.

Ish is only the 2nd wide receiver in the history of SU football to be an AP All-American (along with Art Monk in 1979). Harrison and Kevin Johnson were both AAs, but as kick returners.

I hope every good high school wr who wants to be part of something special is paying attention.

And he's our first overall AA at any position since Freeney in 2001.

I thought Amba made it last season?

Whoops, you're right. The list I was looking at wasn't updated through last year. Monk, Etta-Tawo and Ish are the three.

Back to back years, which was ONLY possible because of Coach Babers and this system.

Kids should be drooling.

Given that these weren't five star guys, my assumption is that when we get a 5 star WR he'll go on to win the Heisman.

I mean, that's the trajectory.

Seriously though, a top tier guy who can run after the catch will put up madden numbers. Lottery pick type.

I don't know enough for sure, but you have to wonder if a couple more wins this year would have moved him up. Nothing to do with his performance.

Well deserved honor. I hope him and his glue hands do well at the next level.

That's a great point and the answer is...YES! Teams that win are just more on the national radar for personal performances. Its human nature.

Would love to see Steve go to a strong team. I hate the Pats but he would be a strong fit with them.

Agree, geeez, just seems like a perfect fit. Would also love to see him on my Steelers, but that's a tough wr corps to crack. SF could use a guy like Ish. Love the way Jimmy G looks thus far.

 

[Finwad32]

What's crazy to me is that for the 2nd year in a row we'll have an AA WR. And, for the 2nd year in a row, they may go undrafted. I don't believe that should be the case, it's crazy IMO.

 

[bothsocksup]

Will Steve get an invite to the Senior Bowl/Draft Combine?
