I don't think Lamark would have played as a true freshman under Snyder.  How many have?  Endzone dive, Overrated Reggie Walker..who else recently?  I think his position would have ended up being LB under Snyder, but with Bill being Bill, he probably would have told him he wanted him on defense and then Lamark would've signed elsewhere.

Moreira, Walker, Hafferty, Reyer most recently.  Also Clary, Sproles, Leckey, Rheem a little further back.

The only reason you really hate is because I'm a flaming faggot liberal.

Congratulations on your outage!  Please though... I'm conservative, but I'm not a very good one.   I'm not really fond of liberals, but being metro myself, I'd fit right in at your gay bashes.  Your hate issues are pretty obvious however.  You might want to work on that.

I hate because you lost your sense of humor and your posts started to suck.  Chum picked it up, but now he sucks too.

I agree that Snyder would have either turned away a four star lifelong fan or likely not played him as a true freshman.  Prince's system is definitely much more friendly to someone like Lamark "Reggie Bush" Brown.

    You can't be racist and like basketball.
If Bill would have played Reggie Walker, why wouldn't he have played Lamark Brown?

Given his track record, it's unlikely that Snyder would see Brown as a good candidate for that.  He redshirted plenty of players rated higher by Rivals than Reggie Walker.

Who did he redshirt that was rated higher than Lamark Brown?

What did Reggie Walker have that Lamark Brown doesn't?

It says that having better receivers than we had last year (a dubious claim at best given the departure of a thrid round NFL pick) is a reason to be hopeful. 

Nice sidestep.  We were talking about Lamark and you thought you would throw in my quote to do what?  You were insinuating that people were referring to him as a savior for the team and I said nobody believes that to be the case his true freshman season.  So you replied w/ something where I mentioned Lamark.  Is that it?

Yamon prolly sucked last year at this time according to you.  Truth be told Yamon's draft status was based on a 40 at the combine, kick returning ability...and, and, and, nothing else.  He was not particularly elusive.  His hands were not reliable.  Very small. 

Moreira = small and no speed.  He did possess great elusiveness, body control, balance, etc. but simply not explosive enough to make too much of an impact.

We had zero size last year.  Zero.  Oh we had a hobbling Jordy and Gonzales but not a true threat w/ size.

We know that a healthy Jordy, Pierce, and Lamark are all big and can run.  Murphy and Hogan appear to be athletic. 

It takes a fool to look at last year's WR corps and this year's and not see a positive difference in numbers, size, and athleticism.  Will they play great off the bat or even next year?  Who knows...but it's hilarious you are in love w/ last year's group when you were probably damning them a year ago.


So, who here thinks Larmark would have played receiver for Bill Snyder as a true freshman?

It's settled then.

It seems you don't think much of our receivers last year.  If they are to improve to such a degree that we should be hopeful, it seems that they will have made a significant upgrade.  Lamark Brown would presumably play a big role in this.

According to Manhatter, Prince >>> Snyder.

Moreira played half the season.  Jordy was far less than 100%...but we did have yamon's speed!!  I liked our receivers but when there is no depth and nobody can stay healthy.  And I was fully aware of the limitations. 

"Lamark Brown would presumably play a big role in this."

Is it all about Lamark?  I don't know...maybe a few JC's, Wilson, and Hogan too?  Some posters around here act like we have zero speed now that Yamon is gone.  I guess I missed what Jordy did in '05 or something.  He was the more reliable long ball threat going into '06 and then the knee injury.  But Murphy and Woods do not possess speed so....Pierce is not a faster and better athlete than Gonzales.  Neither is Lamark.

Again, we have more numbers, size, versatility.  And it's not like one receiver in particular has to go off for 1,000 yards for it to be effective.

So, who here thinks Larmark would have played receiver for Bill Snyder as a true freshman?

Yep, that is what I said...I guess.

I'd rather see Hogan opposite Jordy than Lamark, but maybe that's just me.

I'd rather see Jordy, Pierce and Lamark on the field.

That's a combination that can cause some legitimate mis-matches.

Especially if one of our TEs learns how to outrun a slug.

Not only is Prince a better coach, he's a better human being than Snyder.

No there weren't.  He came in once or twice w/ Ernie, Ernie dropped a pass that hit him in the hands and they left quicker than they came.

I was on the opposite side of the field so I didn't see anything from Lamark or Ernie, but I do remember hearing Wyatt say Lamark dropped one pass that was right in his hands.

In other news, Antwon Moore is out for the season, diminishing the depth in our already thin linebacking corps.  Did I mention we run a defense that is basically predicated on linebacker play?

All I know is that if Prince continues to play Gonzo, a redshirt better be slapped on either Pierce or Lamark cuz their sitting on the sideline catching moths isn't helping anybody down the road.

Isn't it too late since they've both played now?
