Right after Disney bought ESPN and ABC there were a few years of shenanigans. ABC carried the Big 10 but not the SEC. I bet you there was an anti-Manning internal memo. I believe 95 was the last year ABC carried the SEC because I seem to remember Keith Jackson (or maybe Musburger) describing our secondary as a buffet table for Danny Wuerffel. The culture with Jordan and the idea that only champions should get individual trophies was going strong then too.

1. They def attempted to orchestrate an all BIG10 national title game following Michigan's loss to OSU in '06. They weren't able to pull it off and both teams got hammered by far superior squads in their respective bowl games. 2. Without a doubt. It really shouldn't have mattered though. Go back and watch those '97 games and tell me that Cutcliffe and Fulmer weren't trying to make him Ty Detmer from the opening snap against Texas Tech. Had they actually focused on a balanced offensive attack, Tennessee decimates everyone on their schedule and Manning wins the Heisman with identical numbers to his '95 campaign (3000/22/4). 3. While that's true, ESPN did turn around a few years later and catapulted Eric Crouch's Heisman bid by defining it as a "career award" when Rex Grossman and Ken Dorsey were far more deserving. ESPN's shenanigans was a hearty combo of brazen/shameless.
Skip to 1:03 for highlights. Big SOB. Seems slow, but that could be any number of things, including my shitty eval skillz.
I suspect that it's a combo of someone being lazy when slapping together a few clips and him being disinterested with lower competition. His offers are good.
This new kid from NC has some Jennings in him from a size, skill and ability to play anywhere from qb to wr to lb to safety. Poaition may depend on how much he wants to bulk up
The experts believe these guys are all such outstanding recruiters that as soon as they reel a kid in, it’s determined that that kid must not’ve been as good as those same experts originally thought.
