Wanna bet?Believe the Heupel wrote:as everyone and their dog knows he's the #1 pick next year.
true..SoCalTrjn wrote:I dont think he meant #1 pick in the draft, Sooner fan has to know that AP is a true soph and cant go in the draft until after the 06/07 season
Since 1980 there have only been 4 RB's drafted #1 over all. (Ji-Jana Carter '95, Bo Jackson '86, George Rogers '81 and Billy Simms '80) while there have been 13 QB's drafted #1 over all.. All im saying is, I think it would be really rare if a RB gets drafted #1 over all. the teams that usually draft #1 over all, have more pressing needs than RB.. This is by no means a knock at AD as I think he is going to be a fine NFL RB.. just not a #1 overall pickBelieve the Heupel wrote:Sorry-next year, as in AFTER next year. Though I've seen comments from gurus that would have had him the #1 pick this year if eligible.
George Rogers a bust? I think not.Vito Corleone wrote:I guess it doesn't bode well when 2 of the 4 mentioned running backs were busts and another had his career cut short because of injury.
I think only Billy Simms was worth a damn.
Rogers numbers do not back up the draft position He was traded after 4 years to the skins.Terry in Crapchester wrote:George Rogers a bust?

George Rogers' career NFL stats. Suffice it to say that a lot of NFL RB's gladly would have traded careers with him.
Sims also had his career cut short by injuries, IIRC.
Hell no Reggie ain't going ahead of AD.SoCalTrjn wrote:if Reggie Bush stays at USC for his senior year and then goes to the NFL draft you think AP gets picked before him?
AB, when I first read this I thought WTF? but after looking at reggies carries and stats, and then at AD's.. you are absoutly correct. with 2 inches and 10lbs.. AD is the more complete back. While Bush can do some things on the field noone has ever seen. he has never proven that he can carry the ball 25-30 times. hell in his entire college career he has only carried the ball 20 times once. (last week vs Oregon) the rest are mostly 12-16 carries. I think Bush in the NFL is a kick returner/posession receiver not a running back.Vito Corleone wrote:Hell no Reggie ain't going ahead of AD.SoCalTrjn wrote:if Reggie Bush stays at USC for his senior year and then goes to the NFL draft you think AP gets picked before him?
AD is an every down back with the size and speed to average 25 carries per game.
Reggie in the NFL will be a situational player.
To this day, he holds the NFL record (actually shares it with erstwhile teammate John Riggins) for most consecutive games with at least one rushing touchdown (13). That alone says something about his producivity in short-yardage situations, if nothing else.Vito Corleone wrote:Rogers numbers do not back up the draft position He was traded after 4 years to the skins.
Sims only played four seasons, IIRC. One of those was the strike-shortened 1982 season.I forgot about Simms Knee injury, it did cut his NFL career a bit short but in the beginning he was a total badass. I believe Simms still put in about 7 good years in the NFL which is above normal for a runningback.
Call it the Bum Phillips Syndrome -- overusing a running back early in his career. Remember who coached Rogers in the pros?Hell Earl Campbell played 7 but was used up by 5 years.
In college, Reggie reminds me of Rocket Ismail -- literally a threat to score a touchdown from anywhere on the field, in any scenario. Of course, Rocket failed to produce at the same level as a pro, and I suspect the same will happen to Reggie.peter dragon wrote:AB, when I first read this I thought WTF? but after looking at reggies carries and stats, and then at AD's.. you are absoutly correct. with 2 inches and 10lbs..

That and the ultra-moronic decision by the Packers to take Michigan State's steriod boy before Sanders.Believe the Heupel wrote:Yes, Billy Sims blew out a knee and his career ended early. In fact, I believe that was what led the Lions to spend their first round pick on Barry Sanders.
Actually, IIRC, it was conventional wisdom at the time that Mandarich would be the #2 pick. In fact, right around that time SI did a cover piece on him. It was titled something like "The future prototype for linemen."Cornhusker wrote:That and the ultra-moronic decision by the Packers to take Michigan State's steriod boy before Sanders.Believe the Heupel wrote:Yes, Billy Sims blew out a knee and his career ended early.

Each time he'd torch Green Bay, I'd tear up.
Ya see the bitterness, I refuse to type his name! (Well just this once.)Terry in Crapchester wrote:Actually, IIRC, it was conventional wisdom at the time that Mandarich would be the #2 pick.

I actually expected Deion Sanders to go ahead of Barry Sanders as well.
Eaxctly what I was gonna post. Reggie is way bigger than Rocket and Dante Hall. He is 6'0 - 210 and is all muscle. He will be a Faulk/LT2 type back. AD will be like Eddie George.IndyFrisco wrote:Bush will do well in the NFL. He will be much like a Marshall Faulk.
You mean an aggie doesn't like OUVito Corleone wrote:Thats not the rumor i'm talkin about.
Jim Traber is a local OKC sportstalk show host talked about his receiving some crushing news on AD
. Real Shocker there I've never heard Jim Traber pull anything out of his ass to rip on the University of Oklahoma before :roll: . It's okay because he has the most sports insight of anyone on the face of the earth, just ask him. Former OSwho QB who OU didn't want. Did he mention that he played baseball as well 
.OUInsider.com wrote: Stoops wasn't happy to be shooting down another rumor about his star running back.
"I have no idea what those (rumors about legal trouble) would be," stated Stoops. "A lot of times there are rumors that are false so I have no clue what any of those would be. Just like the issue that was in the paper last weekend, that's created by the media."
Stoops was then asked to confirm if Peterson was in good standing with the team and whether he would play on Saturday.
"Absolutely," he replied. "You guys don't bring me in to that. He's practicing as hard as anyone we've got here and he's in perfect standing with us and working his butt off and he looks great."
Pulled from TexAgs;the_ouskull wrote:What rumors are you talking about?
That's basically all I've heard/read this week.Every conceivable rumor imaginable is floating around here in the press, on the radio, and at the watercooler. He's disgusted with his teamates, the play-calling, the coaches, and on and on. Now there are rumors he is going to quit the team or transfer. The oldtimers keep bringing up Joe Don Looney and Marcus Dupree. A lot of sooners seem to be genuinely concerned. I think it's all BS. Peterson's got to be upset, but I don't think he's a quitter. It sure is fun to watch.
Untie the knot in your panties. I'm not trying to "get at" OU fan in the least. You asked "what rumors we were talking about" and I posted a quote explaining lightly what was being splurged on message boards all over.the_ouskull wrote:...sad. I mean, when a proclaimed Tejas fan is pulling rumors off of an Aggie board to try to get at OU fan, it's a sad day in Whornville.

AD, who knows? He got hurt last year. Rumors are he's hurt this year. He may be one of those great talents that just can't hold up.
If AD has these nagging injuries the next couple years, his stock will be WAY down. I'd take AD over Bush today. Another injury or two, my money's on Bush.
