Best True Freshman this year

Featured Replies

Jones. That kid is gonna be a star. He's made some unbelievable plays this season.

 

Followed by Pryor. I'd almost give the edge to Pryor because of the position he is playing. It's tough to play QB no matter what year you are in, him being a true freshman makes what he is doing even more special.

 

I do think Pryor gets a little help by playing much weaker competition. I'd love to see what the kid could do against the SEC teams which are obviously extremely tough defensive teams this season. Jones goes against some greatest corners and DB's in the country every week.He's proven he can make plays against the best. I'll give the edge to him.

 

Both are awesome athletes. I'd take either one of them on my team in a heartbeat.

Disagree with the weak competition. I understand the SEC thing with Jones, but in OSU's slaughter to USC Pryor was the Buck's little bit of offense, completing 7 of 9 passes and running for 41 yards. Also last night he was great minus the pick..

Julio Jones the kid is so skilled already as a freshman.. You see what he did against experienced DB's when they played UK. TP is good don't get me wrong but JJ is on a whole new level..

 

JJ? JJ? Whoa, wait a minute, I got excited, never mind :cry:

I worded that wrong. I was trying to say that I thought Jones preformed at the same level, if not higher than Pryor against better defensive athletes.

I think that Julio Jones is the best followed by Green, and Pryor...I also believe that if Victor Anderson stays hot, he will enter this discussion. Gregg Doyel has already started writing about him.

 

Except that this discussion is about TRUE Freshman. But no doubt he's got a great career ahead of him.

Pryor is on that same level. Pryor can make plays with his feet and just when you least expect it he makes a nice play with his arm. He isn't the best passer and he takes to long sometimes to make decisions, but to me he has been the best true freshman looking at the situation and everything. It's not easy playing QB at Ohio State, especially as a true freshman..

 

Believe me TP is not far at all... I just think Julio Jones is a step ahead at this point.. and he should be playing wide out versus TP playing QB.

It's a lot easier to run a route and use your size to get the ball, then to read a D under pressure and find the open receiver.

 

Pryor is doing such a good job nobody realizes how hard it is.

I agree completely..

My bad sorry, didn't pay attention...take him out...again, sorry.

JJ/MarK Ingram # 22 Bama tailback.

 

Haven't seen the OSU QB.

 

I was thinking Victor also.

Jumping the gun a little bit don't you think. Last nights win was big, but I don't think the Buckeyes have wrapped up either of those just yet. Still got to get past Penn State and Illinois.

 

I didn't say they won the Big 10 Championship, I said that he is now playing for a Big-10 Championship and a BCS Bowl.

Quarterback is 100000000X harder to learn that RB or WR.

 

You are exactly right, the QB is the team leader, and is more demanding and requires more maturity than just hoping in as a running back or wide receiver.

Jones and Green are awesome, but they only have to account for themselves. Pryor is running the offense. That's what pushes him ahead of the competition. But hey, this is only my opinion.

So by your reasoning a QB should be the only player to ever win the Heisman? Or MVP in the NFL?
