i didn't barge in anything...it's a good thread...i gave you my opinion on a guy i've seen every college snap of...yeah i mentioned a freshman thinking this underclassmen thread wasn't about just draft eligible...and yeah i overlooked landrys name...get the noose ready...
i thought this was a thread to draw up discussion/debate not just a nod the head one...i stand corrected...
What exactly are you debating? Nicholson
led the ACC in PBU's despite only being a sophomore. He draws the opposition's
best receiver because he's the best cover corner in UVA's secondary. If you want quotes from Mike London himself where he addresses this specifically, I'll provide that for you too.
I've watched him against Quinton Patton, Conner Vernon, Josh Boyce, Marcus Davis, Corey Fuller, Allen Robinson, Stefon Diggs, Quinshad Davis, on and on. The latter two here are outstanding freshman that were two of the best freshman in the country last year, and will play in the NFL. Nicholson struggled with the size of Davis more than he did with any other receiver here. I don't know of any that didn't struggle with Quinshad Davis. And yes, he will tackle... ask Josh Boyce. Watch the hit where he forced Boyce to fumble the football.
I mean we're not talking about a top 10 pick here. But we
are talking about a kid that will be drafted eventually, and will play in the NFL. Don't come in here waving your arms and stomping your feet about how he stinks, or how he doesn't belong on my damn list of prospects that I've scouted. What the hell do you have that even substantiates your assertion that he stinks? Certainly don't insist that I put a freshman in here who isn't even as good as Nicholson.
Now if you want to "talk football", then get to talking football. Coming in here saying some kids "stinks" or is "garbage" like you always do, is not talking football. Otherwise, there's nothing more to discuss in regards to Nicholson. Every player here is one that
I've watched the tape on. That's why they're here.
This thread will still be around to dig up a year or two from now when he's drafted. Don't worry about that.
