I am just glad I am back for all this talk....
 
First and formost I want to say that I respect everyone's comments. We all have opinions and especially for our leadership to this team. So with that said I want to play name this former star college QB. Here is his College Bio

Set 59 NCAA records during career , including most touchdown passes (121), most yards passing (15,031), most completions (958), most attempts (1,530) and most yards total offense (14,653)…Earned Heisman Trophy after throwing for 5,188 yards and 41 touchdowns as junior…Passed for 4,031 yards and 35 touchdowns as a senior…Also received Maxwell Award as nation’s top college football player and Davey O’Brien Award as country’s top quarterback after junior campaign…Established NCAA record with 12 consecutive 300-yard passing games during junior season…Set school record with 599 yards passing and 6 touchdowns against San Diego State as senior…Graduated with degree in recreation administration.

This should be fun.....

Would that be Ty Detmer?

mighty12 01-05-2006 01:27 PM

Ah yes the great Ty Detmer

saintswhodi 01-05-2006 01:37 PM

How many national titles did Detmer win? How many wins in a row? So what's the point again? Oh, none? Gotcha.

Look man, This was a friendly question that had nothing to do with the Vince Matt debate. If you didn't have an answer for the question then why try to pick a fight. It is draft season for the Saints and I wanted to post some remarkable college stats of players who have been NFL flops. So please play the game or go to one of my other threads that has asked you to convince me of Matt's greatness, which you have yet to do, just leave this one alone.

Now on to the next one

Set season records in rushing average (7.8) and 100-yard games (9)...Named co-MVP of the 1994 Rose Bowl with 156 rushing yards and three TDs on 21 carries, including an 83-yard score, in victory over Oregon...The runner-up in the 1994 Heisman Trophy voting, he also was a finalist for Doak Walker and Maxwell Awards...Voted "Back of the Year" by Washington D.C. Touchdown Club...Had a junior season where he ranked fourth nationally in rushing (139.9), second in scoring (10.8 ppg.) and fifth in yardage (158.4), which led the Big Ten Conference in all three categories...Averaged 6.6 yards per carry in 1993, as he became the first player to top the 6.0 mark since Curt Warner in 1981...Averaged 6.3 yards per carry rushing in 1992 selected number one overall in the NFL Draft...Ran track as a junior.


Who is he?

And although you have been dissing Leinart, you really wanna try to make me believe this little "exercise" has NOTHING to do with Leinart? Okay. :?

LordOfEntropy 01-05-2006 01:59 PM

Relax Whodi, no need to go after this guy like that. I found his questions interesting, give the guy a chance.

mighty12 01-05-2006 02:02 PM

it has just as much to do with Reggie Bush and Deangelo Williams and anyone else who is being hyped as "The next best player" at their position. Notice I am going through each position. Now will you PLEASE go to one of my other posts and explain what your eyes have seen that sets Matt apart from Jay Cutler who has performed VERY well against a confrence known for Defense, but not here. This is my friendly thread, and let's keep it that way.


Still you haven't answered.

So everyone's gonna be a bust? No thanks, don't think I wanna play that game. I actually do think colleges can produce some very good NFL players.

mighty12 01-05-2006 02:13 PM

I believe it also................Peyton Manning, Orlando Pace, Donovan McNabb, Caddy Williams.....These guys were sure things going into the draft. The guys that I am mentioning to include Vince Young are not sure products. That is why I am pushing for a trade down to fill glaring needs. That is what this is for and not a Matt bashing thread. Now I will admit my other posts are Matt bashing, so go to those posts and argue there, and PLEASE GAWD give me your reasoning why Matt6 is our Savior!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

saintswhodi 01-05-2006 02:16 PM

All you have to do is read around to see my reasons. I am not gonna keep explaining them. Who do you suggest be the QB of this team? If Matt, Vince, Reggie, and everyone else is gonna be a bust, why draft anyone? How would trading down help, when everyone is gonna be a bust anyway? To draft more busts? Isn;t it better to simply draft one bust at one position, than to draft 3 or four more at 4 different positions? Who do you see as sure products in this draft? Who are we trading down for? If that is the point you have been driving at all this time, just make it. Who is it you want us to trade down for and draft, and what exactly are we getting for trading down, and who will be the QB if we go that route?

mighty12 01-05-2006 02:30 PM

Remember I just said NOT EVERYONE IS A BUST, but these top 5 guys have a big chance of being a bust, not all of them, but some of them. We would trade down for some good defesnsive players who have more of an upside. WE NEED LEADERSHIP at QB NOW! Not for the furture. I think you want to see the Saints fail and go to your San Antonio location, and that will happen if we don't win NOW! If they don't fill the Superdome in Nov. then Louisiana can say goodbye to my beloved Saints.

So who do we get at QB......Let's see Brett Favre would put fans in the seats and bring key leadership.....Now that is a dream choice and I really don't see it happening, but that would be the best bet. We have a VERY talented Offense once Deuce gets healthy......with some needs at O-line......Defense is the key in this order LB, CB, DT, FS, SS, DE. We NEED it all. We also need a Veteran QB.

Whodi we usually agree especially at QB. I wanted to get Bouman out of there and see what McPhereson can do, but they didn't do that. Oh well.

mighty12 01-05-2006 02:32 PM

Does anyone know the running back I just put up there a few posts ago or should I just give this up, because people are getting offended, like that has stopped me ever.

Huh? I don't know who you are. Are you someone else? You said we usually agree at QB. I've never talked to you before I don't think.

Anyway, Brett Favre? He has been as bad as Brooks lately. How about a hearty hell no on that one. That's your solution? Aye Carumba. So when he throws 20 something INTs, and we are 3-13 again, that's gonna fill the seats? Nice plan. Brett Favre is the solution? Unreal. So then what happens after next year? We go through the whole every hyped player will be a bust routing again? And who says Favre would wanna play here? And who knows how much he would want for something like that anyway. He's not gonna play for peanuts. That's a bad idea.

And please don't get it twisted about me wanting the team to move to SA. Only someone who doesn't know me would say that. I was born and raised in New Orleans guy, even went to college there. Didn't leave until I joined the army, and probably wouldn't have if I hadn't. Stick to talking about what you think you know, and not making inferences you can't prove or have any basis for saying. My whole family is from there, ALL OF THEM and the house I grew up in was flooded out. I have load sof relatives who still haven't gone back home, cause there is nothing for them to go back to.

Sorry I just read it. Its Ki-Janna Carter

sarge06 01-06-2006 02:44 PM

Hey 12 am I correct?

Give me another I can play this game all day.

JOESAM2002 01-06-2006 03:49 PM

Geezzzzzzzzzzzz? what's up with all the bickering? It's just a question! If you don't want to play, take your ball and go home! Now you boys play nice or I'll send you to your room. :D

CheramieIII 01-06-2006 09:50 PM

That's what I'm talkin about Joe. Is that your daughter with you?

JOESAM2002 01-07-2006 08:08 AM

Ha,Ha, Ha, Nice one Cheramie. It's just some hide I met in Mexico. She couldn't resist my charm, singing and mostly my money!
