Thought provoking question: Most overrated cat fballer??

Gonna be unpopular.. Chris Harper

I think by nature every one that is mentioned has to be unpopular (or isn’t a good example)

And also you’re a dumbass and I can’t wait to kick your ass irl

overrated where definition is incoming hype > on-field performance

josh freeman
lamark brown
clinkscales
smoke patterson
marvin simmons
rashaad norwood
daniel davis
bryce brown
demarcus robinson
gary chandler

You gotta take Freeman off that list if that's your definition. His on field performance made him a first round pick! If anything he was underrated by your definition!

How on earth can you write that list and include Josh Freeman? He's clearly the one that doesn't belong.

I view it as players that most KSU fans liked/loved while they were here but in hindsight and taking the in-the-moment purple glasses off, weren't good.

I instantly thought of Watts.

[DQ12]

i can't denigrate marcus watts.  his performance against OSU with his club arm was legendary.

Sams is a really great one.  He stunk and we all thought he was like, legitimately better than actual good qb jake waters.

Josh Freeman

Like I still can't get over that game vs OU when he rolled and instead of running forward, or throwing the ball safely out of bounds he decided as he was getting tackled to play 500 with the ball and an OU linebacker prayed no one would get close enough for him to pick it off. Easily the dumbest play from a talented and (over)rated player.

I feel like Sams would be the way this board treated him, but at large for k-state no.

[steve dave]

Jake Waters is a great one.

[420seriouscat69]

Jake Waters is a great one.

He was hated by half the fanbase, because of Sams & Iowa. NOPE!

[SimoHayha]

Without a doubt, Bryce Brown.

[steve dave]

Jake Waters is a great one.

He was hated by half the fanbase, because of Sams & Iowa. NOPE!

See, nailed it

[steve dave]

also the fact that we've had multiple sams references just in relation to jake waters makes jake waters the premier choice so far.

he was drafted in the first round because raheem morris was tampa's hc and was being a total homer, not because he was a first round pick quality. it was v controversial at the time!

WRT to hype coming in he was the 4th ranked Pro-style QB ahead of Sam Bradford, Andy Dalton, Greg Mcelroy and Colin Kapernack. Freeman had a good career at KSU for sure, the best on the list, but he didn't leave being undisputed #1 QB in KSU history/Golden Boy which I certainly remember people thinking he would be at the time

these stats aren't that hot,

[Skipper44]

Josh Scobey making 2nd team all big 12 in 2001 was kinda sus - he had huge games vs the KUs & ISUs types but then had less than 3 ypc against the good teams

[steve dave]

lmao, he started 61 games in the nfl.

[Skipper44]

you realize that was a returner, right?

also, this thread sucks and i hate it

[EMAWzifried]

Josh Freeman

Hands down. Still love him for his cameo in the KU Bram streak celebration, tho.
