I would buy into him more so than Young.
Armstrong? I wouldn't have an admitted roider in my top 5.
Colt McCoy had just as many total yards as Vince and about the same record.
I agree he was a great college player but there are others who did as much or better over that span.
The tea sippers gotta have a hero so I don't know what to tell you.
I think the biggest reason is that he started that run of great teams after them being mediocre for awhile.
You're focused on stats too much. The dude was one of the greatest players to play CFB.
I can't stand those homos and can see how good he was. Even in all of his retardedness.
I watched every game he played, you are acting like he played with scrubs and was carrying those teams.
I agree he was a good athlete but I have difficulty calling him dominant since he only had one season that would fall into that category. He certainly wasn't dominant his freshman year. His sophomore year was better but the team didn't win the conference and he lost to their arch rival again. Junior year he actually dominated the conference and the national championship but one has to decide if that one year automatically makes the preceeding years fall into the same category. Personally I see him as a one season wonder that didn't carry over in the pros.
Well you can make the same arguments against guys like Tebow. Those 2007-2009 Florida teams were absolutely stacked with NFL caliber talent.
True and it's why I have a hard time coming up with a truly dominant CFB over the last 25 years.
This has been my difficulty in this discussion of trying to assess a team player independent of team mates contributions. It very hard to pick one person on a team as dominant because of the team member's contributions.
Yep. Newton and Young are similar in some aspects but I think Newton had a better grasp of the game than Young and was a more rounded as a QB.
IMO he truly put that team on his back more so than the others, but I admit that's debatable.
