1.) Benjamin Morrison 6’0 190 CB Notre Dame- “In order to find his equal, an Irishman is forced to talk to God.” I agree, Stephen. You are free to disagree with my Fightin’ Irish pick here in rd 1, but this fine lad can play (and fits my Irish theme). Oh sure, I too am pins and needles waiting for Ben’s successor, but there’s just no way in Hell I let Tomlin select the next Steelers’ qb. He’s eminently NOT qualified.

2.) Isaiah Bond 5’11 180 WR Texas –“Spicy was big, burly and strong, his pipes were gigantic and so was his schlong! “ Former Buford High School speedster did his best Spicy McHaggis jig to get open on that Jalen Milroe never-ending scramble, game winning TD vs Auburn last season. INCREDIBLE finish to that football game. Google it.

3.) Wyatt Milum 6’6 317 OT West Virginia- “I don’t care if your name is Broderick Crawford. Don’t you know you can’t drive a piece of shit like that on the highway?” Broderick Jones? A bust? IDK (yes). I do know that Broderick’s former coach, Kirby Smart, is a used car salesman. Not a teacher. His focus is and always has been on recruiting not developing. As for Broderick’s current coach, Pat Meyer? Well, I got nothin’ other than FUCK HIM! Anyway, a great slate of games this Labor Day weekend. If Zach Frazier's former line-mate here can shut down Penn State’s Abdul Carter up in Morgantown, he catapults himself into Rd 1 status. LET’S GOOOO MOUNTAINEERS! James Franklin giving 8.5 in a big road opener? Bet your house, literally.

4.) Rylie Mills 6’5 295 DE Notre Dame- “How can you drink all day if you don’t start in the mornin?’” I know Mountaineers can party, but damn, Pat, 30 Guinness’? Holy bloated. “HUP! HUP! HUP!” Classic Mcafee show at JR Mahon’s in glorious downtown Dublin. Sheamus pouring the Guinness, Pat doing an Irish jig with Miss Terri…SLAINTE!

5.) Haynes King 6’3 215 QB Georgia Tech-"Sweetheart, half Mick, half Guinea, I’ll sing with an Italian accent!”. WOW! What a football game! What a setting! I’m moving to Ireland and y’all can’t stop me. Anyway, week Zero is still shit-off stupid, but I was wildly entertained watching the uber athletic Haynes King scramble his way to a Yellow Jacket upset over an overrated bunch of ‘Noles. Ohh I don’t see him as any kind of savior at qb, but this scrappy GAMER can play on my team anytime. Roll with a vet (looks like Dak will be available) until Tomlin gives birth to Art2’s baby and moves on.

5.) (Via Rams) Kaden Prather 6’3 210 WR Maryland – Hopefully, Steelers’ scouts (do we have scouts?) noticed this lad while scouting Zach Frazier while at WVU. Athletic mover could have a breakout season now playing in Mike Locksley’s high-octane offense over in College Park.

6 (Via Texans) Hunter Wohler 6’2 218 S Wisconsin- “Notch 45 you Irish bog bastard“ This ‘sum bitch packs a wallop and we all know the Steelers dig them some Badgers.

7 Ahmari Harvey 6’0 190 CB Georgia Tech- Lad was all over that glorious green grass field in Dublin, Ireland he was. Jumped right off the screen he did. Tackling machine that will surely give Tomlin a Mike Hilton-like chubby.

7.) (Via Eagles) Jamal Haynes 5’9 190 RB Georgia Tech – “This Irishman is here to take all you Guinea’s money.” Yet another standout on the green grass of Dublin. Former WR ran over and around a usually fast Florida State defense. My guy Najee will notch yet another 1,000 yard season and be resigned. Book it, Dano.

7,) (Via Eagles) Gavin Bartholomew 6’5 250 TE Pitt- “Muuuuth!” “Meeeeew!” Yinzer paradise.

Thanks as always for Reading. Please comment on the players you like and those you don’t. A GREAT start to the college football ball season will be followed by an INCREDIBLE Labor Day weekend of action! Go IRISH! Go Dawgs! GOOOO MOUNTAINEERS!

5 glorious days of college football off to a fun start

-Shadeur Sanders had time to throw and played VERY WELL

-Bison's QB Cam Miller also impressed me

-I THINK Travis Hunter could play both ways in the pros. Local Collins Hill HS kid is a fun watch

-Jimmy Horn is holy shit fast. Dig him

If I just forget everything I saw from any QB before this season, I'd have Shadeur Sanders QB1 and Carson Beck nowhere near round 1. I get that Beck is QBing a loaded team and therefore might be conditioned to playing it ultra close to the vest, but even when he's targeted downfield shots he's really missed the target.

I think I will do a QB stock market this year, showing where they started the year and which way theyre trending game-to-game.

Some diamond notes if you will

• Easing in

Kirby is very Tomlin-like in this regard.

But unlike Tomlin, Kirby is lauded for his halftime adjustments.

Contrary to what “Booger” McFarland tells you, those halftime adjustments matter.

Anyway, I can only assume B2B that your derogatory Carson Beck comments were posted based on his 1st half performance where he missed a couple key passes…one behind Dom Lovett particularly stood out.

I’m not a huge Carson Beck guy, but he did look much better in the 2nd half.

Not going to make excuses for him like Greg McElroy, but he’s not exactly stacked with elite receiving talent this year. I see a couple day 3 picks, but nothing close to elite talent.

• Eating Crow

I can’t stand James Franklin, but good on him for getting a big opening game road win in a GROSSLY overhyped contest that I fell for thanks to my Pat McAfee fandom.

Tom Allen and the lots of syllables Kansas OC looking like quality upgrades that a dumbass like Franklin will surely need if he’s going to finally break into the playoffs.

• Drew Allar

You know as well as I do that Art2 will see flashes of Big Ben when watching Pompeani’s evening Penn State highlights while downing his cookies and milk.

“Hey Omar. That Penn State kid is tall ‘sneaky athletic’ and from Ohio like that Roethlisberger fella. He might even be better than Ron's kid, Todd we missed out on along with Marino. Anyway, MAKE IT HAPPEN! Nighty, Night.”

• Travis Hunter-lite

Georgia’s receiving corps impresses me not. 5 star freshman, KJ Bolden, from Buford needs to be playing both ways like his Collins Hill HS counterpart out in Boulder. Kid’s a stud.

• Duh

B2B’s boys over at Depot reported that Steelers’ scouts are at the Penn State/WVU game.

I would freaking hope so.

• Won’t back down?

Don’t know about all that, Tom Petty (RIP). The Gators are quite down. I do know Billy Napier won’t be back. But hey, B2B’s guy Cam Ward playing very well for the ‘Canes (Man, do they have a cakewalk to a playoff birth).

• “The Demon”

Gig ‘em but don’t dig Conner Weigman. Ohh I’ll watch the game tonight and see if he can play, but kid struck me as an unlikable neanderthal punk interacting with Oz the mentalist as shown on Game Day this morning. Get off my lawn, indeed.

• Kirk

Speaking of GameDay, did anyone else catch Herbstreit’s passive aggressive rant about Ohio State transfers Will Howard and Quinshon Judkins being backup caliber players?

He might not be entirely wrong, but I thought Judkins was a great pickup especially given Trey Henderson’s fragility.

Anyway, Herbstreit getting more bitter toward his Buckeyes by the year. Lighten up, Francis.

Just trying to drum up some college football discussion. If y'all have some thoughts on today's action, please share. GO IRISH!

Jeremiah Smith looks like the next OSU WR to dominate. and as a true freshman

Yep, Brian Hartline strikes again.

Saw the highlights of that one, so no clue how QB Will Howard looked in the Buckeyes tune up game.

I'll tell you who I did see after falling asleep on a boring Notre Dame game was Tet McMillan the 6'5 210 WR from my Big 12 sleeper champion Arizona Wildcats.

10 catches nearly 300+ yds and 4 nearly 5 tds (Tackled at the 1) in their tune up game vs New Mexico.

Shocking no team bought that kid in the offseason.

If B2B can take Carson Beck out of the 1st round discussion after 1 game, then this Conner Weigman kid is definitely WAY out of the rd 1 discussion.

Kid literally put me to sleep he sucked so bad.

But

Plenty of games yet to be played

Go Irish

Listen, it's going to be week to week. I'm just saying if I knew nothing other than this week in CFB, Cam Ward, Noah Fifita, Taylen Green, and Shadeur Sanders are kind of on a different plane than most QB prospects in week 1. One more game to go tomorrow and then we'll attempt to sort it all out for the 1st week rankings.

[jebrick]

I need to see Taylen Green make more throws in the pocket than just running around. It is my same complaint against Milroe of Bama. At least Green's offense is asking him to do multiple reads, just not sure how good he is at it.

Beck, Ward and Sanders stood out as passers in week 1. Greyson McCall had a decent game.

[Steeldrama]

He has some deep ball warts (gross, Drama), but I'll tell y'all what I do like about Beck (besides his hot girlfriend...TWINS BASIL)

While he may look like a mopey dude, Beck is a smart cat... goes through his progressions, then when he does find the open man? QUICK release.

Even when he had Brock Bowers and Lightning Ladd McConkey, Beck spread the ball around.
Threw it to 9 different receivers after heating up nicely in the 2nd half vs Clemson.

He doesn't hyper focus on a star player like a Tet McMillian because he doesn't have a star player like Tet McMillan.

And that slow start vs Clemson?
That's a Kirby thing.
He's "probing" for weaknesses then adjusts at halftime.
It frustrates the hell out of me, but under Bobo that's been the approach.

I'll tell you what else I like and Beck said this himself, there's no defense in college football that scares him because he practices against the best in college football every day.

McCall's arm is back... took him a full year to recover the strength... but now he's got to get more game reps to get his accuracy back to where it was before the shoulder surgery. He was uncharacteristically wild.

Green has some wildly good passing tape in the past; Last weekend was not his best showing... but it didn't need to be, really, since he and his team ran the shit out of the ball.
