exactly with no santonio holmes they can focus on Ginn, like they did at the beginning of last year where he was only limited to a few touches per game. Their offense looks stacked though, very deep at most skill positions. But i would not put them at #1 after losing so much on D, although i know they will replace them. Tressel will keep them in the top 10-15 though
First off, nobody claimed he is a "great" wide receiver yet. I simply said he'll be in Heisman contention, which most, including myself, think he will be. You don't watch college football if you think he's overhyped.
dont worry about I of tygrr son he is on this board every day looking to argue with some one. dont bite.
I agree--Adrian Peterson was the front-runner, IMO...until a few days ago. It's going to be a fun year...
I'm a little amused by the talk on Ginn. He's the second best player on that team... and when Chris Wells steps on the field this fall, he may be the third best player. This is Troy Smith's team. Ted Ginn can make huge plays, the type of plays where you just say, "Wow"... and that starts the Heisman talk... but the Buckeyes are loaded on offense... and the way they use Ginn, it will make little difference whether he's double covered or not. He's been eleven-covered on kickoffs and punts...
Not to mention the TV advertising rates..... Statistically, going wire to wire is the equivalent of being showcased on the cover of Sports Illustrated.
Chris Wells hasn't even done anything yet on the collegiate level, so he's a bit of a moot point in this discussion. As for Troy Smith, he may be the best at what he does (quarterbacking), but that in no way should take away from what Ted Ginn does. If they played the same position, I could then see your point.
