[KSUTOMMY]

HILARIOUS, even the award people dont take him seriously!

As opposed to ignoring Freeman.

I dont think an error by the person who handled the release exactly equates into a snub by the committee that chose him...

We'll see where they end up !

I'd rather see where their respective teams end up.

I guess I was thinking since it was QB award it was and individual honor not a team honor.  But hey, Davey O Brien was probably a team not an individual, right?   But you're right, his team's success is the only reason he's on the list.  Nice gesture by the committee.

  It makes me laugh to think of Hatter, before the season, describing Brandon McAnderson as a "fat toad of a fullback playing tailback."

Is he not?  That says nothing about whether he's a good blocker or banger as a runner.  Do you think he's NFL or something?  ku's RB's are solid but, like Cornish, they are not NFL caliber backs or anything.  Everything ku does offensively is predicated on the OL and spread. 

I'd be willing to bet that Brandon McAnderson will at least get a shot in the league as a fullback.  He's proving that he's versatile enough to carry the ball on the rare occasions that an NFL fullback needs to, and he's always been an outstanding blocker.  Even if he weren't, however...who gives a sh*t?  Thomas Clayton got a shot at the NFL while Jon Cornish did not.  Which would you have rather had in purple over the last two seasons?

Any answer other than "Jon Cornish" is a blatant lie.

Regardless, McAnderson is hardly a prototypical banger, which is something the A&M game alone proved.  He's not Brian Leonard or anything, but for someone who weighs 245 pounds he's very quick, has decent speed, and excellent field vision.  He's surprised a lot of people, including Kansas fans, with his ability to carry the football.

Are you really going to try and tell me that when you called B-Mac a "fat toad of a fullback playing tailback," you thought he could still be an effective ball carrier?  That it was nothing more than a comment on his appearance?

Please.  You thought he was going to suck.  Just like you thought the O-Line was going to suck, that Jake Sharp would suck...blah, blah, blah.

I could run behind ku's line.

I've been very complimentary on AD Mayes...definitely a stud!

Josh Freeman is the bigger, taller, more traditional and ideal QB.  Todd Reesing is a born leader who will find a way to win and wont let any defense get in his way when its crunch time.  When we pulled his redshirt last year we were on a 4 game losing streak, since then we are 11-1.  Freeman is steadily improving, but no way would I ever trade Reesing for him.

Start buying shares in …Kansas State QB Josh Freeman. The game has really begun to slow down for the talented sophomore, who has accounted for eight touchdowns over the last two games. As Freeman gets asked to do more within the offense, he continues to deliver, a sweet sign for the program over the next two seasons.

You would be foolish to take Reesing over a potential first round NFL draft pick at quarterback.  Reesing is in an offense that makes it easy for a quarterback to have success.  Great pass protection and a very good running game.  Freeman doesn't have that right now(hence short passes to sub as running game).  The only thing he has is better wide receivers but that isn't as important.  Put Freeman in ku's offense and he would put up much better numbers because of the protection and running game, two of a quarterback's favorite things.  Reesing is a fine QB but not nearly as good as Freeman if put in the same offensive situation.

EDITED (conference only stats:)

Keep in mind Freeman has played in one more game.

Freeman:
154-241, 64.3%, 1694 yards, 10 TD, 5 INT, 111 EFF, 3 wins, 3 losses

Reesing:
107-169, 63.3%, 1140 yards, 12 TD, 3 INT, 136 EFF, 5 wins, 0 losses


The only 3 big differences between these two qbs otherwise pretty similar numbers....

1) Height
2) Touchdown/Interception ratio
3) Winning Percentage

great? not so much, well at least not yet.  reesing really doesn't have to make a lot of tough throws, ku has a good offensive scheme, kinda like mizzou, you know, the spread pussy sh*t.

I wasn't using great in the timeless sense, more so as a jab at you. He's not great except for running the offense and making pretty decent decisions. He doesn't make the best one all the time, but he's been pretty good at running the offense without giving up turnovers which is something that is pretty damn nice.

that's all a spread offense QB has to do, and he's doing fine.  all i got to say is once defenses start to find ways to stop the spread just like teams found a way to stop the option, this will happen
