Locker will be a bust. Called it as soon as I heard anyone had him that high.

I still don't see all the hype with Locker?

He is surrounded by average D1 players, and isn't Locker kind of like Tebow?

I just remember him against OSU and him being mainly a running QB.

He's not even Tebow. He's a poor man's Tebow.

Never understood the hype around him either, when he was a freshman I thought he'd be a good college QB--but people still seem to think that being a good college QB will translate to the next level and make you a start, even though that theory has been proven false hundreds of times.

Eh, I guess I'm in the minority in that I think Locker will be an excellent NFL QB. And he really isn't comparable to Tebow at all, as Locker is more athletic and has a much stronger arm. Considering the talent (or lack thereof) that he has at UW, it is no surprise that he hasn't been able to light things up as of yet. Another year with Sarkisian will allow him to season his game and be further prepared for the NFL.

I dont think Locker or Luck will have any success at the NFL level.

He was a freshman at that time, so it's hard to judge him.

I think he's very talented and is surrounded by below average talent.

Many have compared him to Steve Young, which I think is a fair comarison based on athleticism.

I still think Mallett will be the best pro QB of the bunch though.

I honestly like all 3 QB's. I think Mallet, Luck, and Locker are all quite impressive.

Random but I met Heyward at Nyohs tonight. Pretty cool laid back guy. He was trying to line dance. Anyways, the guy is huge in person and I wish him only the best. Probably one of the most grounded football players I have ever met.

He was right in front of me and out with a bunch of friends. I'm 25 years old, im not running up to a 20 yr old college football player to take pics. It was a Volleyball player's 21st bday (Katie Dull to be exact http://www.ohiostatebuckeyes.com/ViewArticle.dbml?SPSID=89323&SPID=10410&DB_OEM_ID=17300&ATCLID=1137652&Q_SEASON=2009) and guys like Bo DeLande were there. He had enough rednecks running up to him wanting pics.

He's dating a chick on the volleyball team, so that makes sense to me.

You know since it really isn't that unbelievable that you did run into him and since that phrase is used a lot on here.

Hmmmm, if you haven't figured my posting style out yet I shall buy you one of these.

If you're lookin for a tall chick, volleyball players are the way to go..a lot of them are very hot girls..half the chicks on OU's volleyball team (who are actually really good) are smoking hot and taller than me. Not really my style, but for 6'6 Cameron Heyward, its exactly what he needs haha

Don't see a problem with that. I'm a UNC Bball fan and an OSU football fan. Been like that for like 20 years.
