Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 368289, member: 716"] Were it not for the senior year, I'd probably be a bit more down on him. He was a nice kid, but I'd been irrationally optimistic about the Roberts/Watkins duo from Day One and found them...frustrating. That's the best word. But Roberts easily could've taken a medical redshirt, sat out 2007, and watched his guys lose 15 or 17 games. Instead he busted his butt and helped them get into a position where they deserved an NCAA bid. Disappointing team, but he became an easy guy to root for. Glad the fans gave that group such a good NIT showing that year. [/QUOTE]
