Wow, Shank...I think you pretty much nailed it. I would say Murphy is more 8-9...he's got All-SEC/AA type ability and really turned it on at the end of the season last year...that catch vs f$u sold me. Cunningham is another that I would probably go with a 9...he's gonna be rough on QBs. AJ Jones is probably the one we differ the most. He's "light" and needs experience...but his speed is what makes him so dangerous on defense...I would probably go with a 5-6 on him...although, if he is too green this Spring...one of the incoming freshman could take his spot, so...you're likely right. Man...if our defense shows a little improvement next season...the Gators are gonna be hard to beat.

When you say potential, I say potential for this year. For example, I think R. McClain can be an All SEC player this year. However, I think he has a good shot to be an AA down the road. So my rankings are based upon this year only.

Actually, you're right, Prodigy. After looking at my rankings again this morning, and reviewing the ranking criteria reese posted, I lowered my rankings across the board for the OL. They have struggled for the better part of 2 seasons now, and until they show they can play to their potential, I can't really rank them any better than average....

I disagree with a few of your picks on defense. Jasper Brinkley is the best player on our team and one of if not the best linebackers in the SEC. We all saw what happened when he went down last year. Therefore, Jasper gets a 10 because he truly has the potential to be an all american. The other one I have a problem with is Eric Norwood. I think he is great and all, but I would put him at 9. He played great in several games last year but was MIA in several also. Honestly, Captain and Cook could probably hover around 9-10, but Jasper is my only clear cut 10 on defense.

Well, Norwood was selected for the All-SEC 1st team last season as a soph. (along with McKinley and Munnerlyn), so he did something right. Perhaps losing both Jasper and Pepper, as well as others on D wearing down towards the end of the season, also affected Norwood's play. USC's entire D was MIA down the stretch, remember. Still, it's hard to rate Norwood as a "potential" All-SEC, under this thread's criteria, when he's already one. I'm hoping he will improve on his sophomore season under the direction of Coach Johnson.
As far as Jasper, you're probably right, but I'd like to first see how he's back from his knee injury, mentally as well as physically. He is a past consensus All-SEC 1st team selection, and was a pre-season candidate for All-America, along with other honors, before last season, so if he returns at his former ability, then you're right, no doubt.....

i mean potential for the upcoming season. for players that were all sec last year, they would def have the best potential to repeat that this year unless there are outstanding circumstances that would prevent that.

They have struggled for the better part of 2 seasons now, and until they show they can play to their potential, I can't really rank them any better than average....

the truth, and nothing BUT the truth. :brick:
Well, Norwood was selected for the All-SEC 1st team last season as a soph. (along with McKinley and Munnerlyn), so he did something right. Perhaps losing both Jasper and Pepper, as well as others on D wearing down towards the end of the season, also affected Norwood's play. USC's entire D was MIA down the stretch, remember. Still, it's hard to rate Norwood as a "potential" All-SEC, under this thread's criteria, when he's already one. I'm hoping he will improve on his sophomore season under the direction of Coach Johnson.
As far as Jasper, you're probably right, but I'd like to first see how he's back from his knee injury, mentally as well as physically. He is a past consensus All-SEC 1st team selection, and was a pre-season candidate for All-America, along with other honors, before last season, so if he returns at his former ability, then you're right, no doubt.....
Yea you make some good points, especially about the whole defense wearing down. I think the only one who kept performing like a badass was E. Cook. But I'm gonna stick with Jasper being a 10. And hopefully his stellar play will spark those other guys.

It's hard to do this exercise for your own team. Most of the picks on here have been pretty objective, which is a complement to all you out there. But there is NO WAY USC has 4 All-Americans. NO way. The only reason I put Luigs as a 10 is because, well, he won the Rimington Trophy. He was considered the best center in the nation last season. The likelihood that he will repeat that success is high.
I do agree with the poster that said Jasper Brinkley is the best player on the team. That is true. Even at that, he isn't a 10. I don't think there is a single 10 on USC's starting lineup. They gotta prove it on the field. At best Brinkley should be a 9. There is nothing wrong with a 9.

That was a little over the top on my part. The only player who is possibly a 10 is Jasper Brinkley. The rankings you are showing are for the OTHER USC.
Brinkley is a 9, Cap is a 9, I don't think you have any All-Americans on your team this season, you have some candidates for All-SEC first team, but not All-American.

Well, the chances of all the players I listed as "10" actually being All-americans at the end of 2008 is very slim. I have never stated otherwise. But they (and I posted 3, not 4, 10's) do have the potential to be All Americans, IMO. I thought the criteria was that a "10" was a "potential all american". If the players I ranked continued to improve as they have thus far, I think they will be among the players considered for All-America.
But this is all just to pass the time of day, and as with season predictions, these postings mean absolutely nothing to the real outcomes. It's just what I think has the potential of happening. Try not to let it work you up into such a state....

Hmm. McKinley is arguably the best returning WR in the SEC. A 1st-team All-SEC WR by the league's coaches, the Associated Press and CollegeFootballNews.com., and earned honorable mention All-America honors by CollegeFootballNews.com. He's set to own EVERY career receiving record USC has, passing WR's like Sterling Sharp, Robert Brooks, and Sidney Rice. Of course, if USC's young redshirt-freshmen receivers step up and help ease some of the load from Kenny's shoulders this season - like I'm wishing they do - he may not have as many receptions and yards as last season.
Then again, he led the SEC in receptions, RPG, RYPG, and was 2nd in TD's basically being the only consistent receiver USC had all season, with opposing defenses knowing it. Perhaps if we can get some help, it may open up the opposing secondaries, and give K-MAC some room to roam. I think the potential is there.......

Stats don't lie. Mckinley is arguably the best returning receiver in this conference. I don't think too many are concerned about his "muscle" after he has caught the ball in the open field. His YAC is impressive. A very shifty guy. Not too fast but quick enough to make the first and even second guy miss. All American? Maybe not. All SEC? There's no reason to not list him.

The knock I have on McKinley is, where was he the last half of the year? I'd say Percy Harvin from Florida, Demetrius Byrd from LSU and Lucas Taylor are all better. Harvin is the best returning receiver.
If you want to play the "Best case scenario" potential all-American Arkansas got 6, not counting True Freshmen who will play and have an immediate Impact. Let's be realistic with this. Carolina has 1, maybe, that would qualify as a potential All-American. They have several who could be 9's. But they have no 10's. I'd be very surprised if South Carolina has any pre-season, or post-season all-americans on their roster.
At the time, I thought that Cap was not even close to being all-sec, he got out-run and out-muscled by both Felix Jones and Darren McFadden last season. In hindsight, I think we can all say, that isn't a knock on Cap, McFadden is really, really fast, and really, really strong. So I'd say he is a sure bet for an All-SEC spot, as is Brinkley.

You ask where McKinley was the last half of the season last season? He was winning his All-SEC 1st-team votes from the SEC head coaches, and from the Associated Press:
LAST 6 GAMES OF 2007:
McKinley
45 catches for 586 yards and 4 TD's
Harvin
25 catches for 295 yards and 1 TD
Byrd
21 catches for 322 yards and 4 TD's
Taylor
26 catches for 310 yards and 2 TD's
Looks pretty clear-cut to me. Of course, Harvin missed 2 games during that stretch due to illness, but even if you discard those 2 games, and add in the 2 games preceeding the last 6, where he had 6 catches for 108 yds and 0 TD's total for both, it doesn't help his case much. And Taylor also missed 1 game, but if you add in the game before his last 6 where he had 4 catches for 57 yds and 0 TD, it's the same as with Harvin.....
As with your opinion on Munnerlyn, like your's for McKinley, you're certainly welcome to it. I'll take the collective opinions of the SEC head coaches foremost, if it's all the same to you....

Winning is everything. You think Arkansas could have beaten LSU this past season without McFadden? The last half of the season was irrelevant because they lost. McKinley could have had 0 yards 0 TD's and it wouldn't have affected the outcome. You take McKinley away SC is worse off, but not that much worse off.

I haven't challenged anybody else's opinions in here about their teams' starters.
The only thing that has happened between you and I in this thread is you made a stupid, uneducated statement about what McKinley did the last half of the '07 season, and I easily pointed out the stupidity of it for all to view at their leisure.

But I can accept your above comment, knowing how many Tim Tebow threads you've chubbed-up over, since before he was even enrolled at Florida......
:ohmy:

Well...can't argue with that. Although, Tebow is currently the best player in the country...so, there's quite a big gap in "comparisons".
BTW, I wasn't disparaging McKinley...simply adding to the discussion. You chose to attack my remarks, as usual. If you don't like my remarks...don't respond to them, policeman.

The only thing that has happened between you and I in this thread is you made a stupid, uneducated statement about what McKinley did the last half of the '07 season, and I easily pointed out the stupidity of it for all to view at their leisure. Then you give an encore by making an even more stupid, uneducated statement about the qualifications for being named an All-American, and I again blew that to pieces. And you've then tried to change your story, so as not to look so stupid. Why would I be sore, or angry over this? The only emotion I came away with from this encounter - that I can tell - is pity....
USC lost, therefore he was irrelevant. That is my point. I don't care if he scored 20 TD's in the last 6 games, he didn't affect the outcome of the game resulting in a win for his team.
Go sulk, I don't care. Guess what an All-American looks like:

This is a guy who takes games over. In the SEC, you need to be like this guy to be an All-American. I'm telling you McKinley doesn't have it. All-SEC sure, he's not an All-American. And much like anything else, his performance on the field will show what he is made of. Can he do what McFadden did against LSU? South Carolina? Auburn in 06? Can he take games over. Can he make a statement. If you are big time player in a big time conference, you need to be more than just good. McKinley is just good. That is all I'm saying. He didn't do enough to help his team to victories in the second half of the season. That was my point, but much to the fashion of homerism that you are accustomed to, you completely missed it, and focused on what makes you feel better, what gives you hope. He's not an All-American, he doesn't have the stats or the presence of a top SEC receiver. If I'm wrong, he'll prove it on the field, but don't pretend like he's already done that. He hasn't.
I'm done with you.... for now.
