The Kamikaze Kid Moderator No. 1 Share Posted October 9, 2022 This offense has gone to extremely awesome in a hurry. We have a great QB handing off to great running backs or passing to great receivers or great tight ends all being protected by a great line. It makes me wonder, if you were a 5 star recruit, would you prefer being the man and getting the lion's share of the snaps or would you prefer sharing the load with other awesome players at your position. Being the man gets you a boat load of stats and highlights but sharing the rock cuts way down on wear and tear and potential injuries. If pro ball is my end game, I think I'd prefer less wear and tear, get enough highlights to get NFL attention and take fewer snaps on a star studded team. Thoughts? 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great players make great players great players. Look at the amount of Bulldawgs drafted last year. Even with fewer individual highlights I think exceptional team play gets noticed and put at a higher premium from NFL. Perform well in the combine and cash the check. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thoughts? Perhaps, but I think the in-born competitive spirit in Nix is too strong to want to sit until the victory is assured. Hey! You know what? This could explain what's wrong with Ty Thompson (if anything is). Maybe he lacks that same competitive spirit just oozing out of Bo Nix. He never looks like he's glad to be in the game. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
