Shelton ranks Flowers above Daniels, Grothe in "small college QBs"

[Brad]

Quote

7. B.J. Daniels, USF (2008-2012): In his first start, Daniels led the Bulls to an upset over FSU. Saw spot duty in the NFL.

6. Josh Padrick, FIU (2003-2006): The career leader for FIU with more than 9,000 yards passing.

5. Matt Grothe, USF (2006-2009): Led the Bulls to the No. 2 ranking in the country. Threw 52 touchdown passes.

4. Rusty Smith, FAU (2006-2009): Smith threw for 86 touchdowns and was a sixth-round pick of the Tennessee Titans.

3. Quinton Flowers (2012-present): Threw for more than 2,000 yards and rushed for 991 to lead USF to a good year last season.

Nope. Gotta do it at least twice to make sure it's no fluke.

 

And that's not a knock. But it's like saying Roger Maris in '61 makes him one of the best HR hitters ever.

McGough and Schneider on the list, but no Marquel? That's ludicrous.

He wrote smaller programs (than UF, FSU, and Miami). I am offended that we are a smaller program than UF, FSU, or Miami.  We should be right up there with UF and FSU, and ahead of the Canes.  Hopefully very soon.

 

Go Bulls!

He is.  It is kind of like "Weekend at Bernie's" over there.  They needed a sports presence.  So they put up his name and picture and some schmendrick  writes drivel like this to get the fans to visit the site.

So I was going to ask why the cut-off at #3, then I clicked the link...ugh...save yourselves and bypass the link. Besides, like JTrue said, you know it's biased to the "now" based on QF being so high. He still has to prove it's repeatable, and I can't wait.
