True. But the point was that leading his team in stats, or having stats better than someone on our team doesn't mean much if he's on a crappy team.

He could just be the tallest midget.

We’ll I know who wasn’t the tallest midget…stone or pup.

I don't think necessarily to our degree.

IF the qb pans out, and IF the oline takes a 180 and IF the RBs improve then we shouldn't have to worry about the passing game? We literally listed every position on offense as a question mark.

Rocket is proven. We don’t have to hope he improves. Just that he’s 100%, which every indication is that he will be. Every team in the country starting a new QB has to “hope” they’re what they think they are.

They were playing in the SEC though, not for a smaller conference team. (Not even a P5 team). They may well have been awesome on those small teams.

You said it. Rocket is proven, IF he's healthy.

And yes, every team in the country starting a new qb has to hope, because it's an unknown. A question mark, or an "if", whatever you want to call it. Lots of teams have a question mark at qb, or ol, or RB or WR.

My concern is that we have a question mark at qb, ol,rb AND wr.

A valid concern, 100%.

Every team in the country can say; IF the qb is good and IF the RBs are good and IF the OL is good and IF the WRs are good and IF the D is good and IF special teams are good, we are going to have a good season. One doesn't have to be a football expert to make that prediction.

I think it is safe to say qb is not going to be better next season. Sellers is talented but I don't think he is Rattler talented. Sanders is a question mark, how he has recovered will determine a lot about him. OL MAY be better but I don't think it is suddenly going to be All SEC. D shouldn't be any worse, I'm not sure a Bama third string guy and a couple FCS LBs are going to dominate and change the dynamic of the D.

I'll say it again; player development is the key, even the 4 and 5 stars need development when they get to college.

The sad part is with the "new" cfb, there won't be any long-lasting development. Guys are now one-year mercenaries, hired for 'what can you do for me today?'. I don't see how you can count on developing and growing them for any sort of long-term benefit/success/contribution... That is, unless you're Bama and uga, I guess.
