Honestly... and I know this might sound like a "homer pick"... but honestly... I'm surprised B.Miller isn't ranker higher (i.e., inside the top 10, maybe even top 5). I'd put him ahead Tyler Boyd (WR), Jeremy Langford (RB), Randy Gregory (DE), Mike Davis (RB), and Melvin Gordon (RB)... but that's just me.

I'd have Todd Gurley ahead of Melvin Gordon too.

Also... Laquon Treadwell is waaaaaaaaaaaay too low (at 20). Treadwell is easily a top 15, maybe even top 10 talent.

It's just one man's opinion. Braxton is definitely a top 5 player heading into next year.

Anti-military? I was merely stating a fact that Navy is going to get blown out so their ranking is irrelevant.

Don't play coy...you've many times expressed your idiotic opinion that members of the military shouldn't be honored.

This is about football. I do not believe Navy is a special team just because they represent a branch of the military; they are going to get blown out.

The only uniform you ever wore (including sports...) is Cub Scout shorts & neckerchief.

Pot, meet kettle, unless you call an orange jumpsuit a uniform.

Shouldn't Ohio State blow out Navy? If it's not a blow out it would be shocking.

If the Buckeyes don't blow out the 57th ranked team in the country it says more about them than their opponent.

Quality GPAs and football.

Navy's Keenan Reynolds is mentioned.

"
[h=4]Keenan Reynolds, QB, Navy[/h] While Tennessee's Josh Dobbs is the quarterback studying to build planes, Reynolds might be the one who ends up flying them for the Navy. As if setting an NCAA record for rushing touchdowns by a quarterback wasn't enough, the busy schedule at the Academy certainly added to his workload. However, he still managed to post strong grades in his political science classes."

This is a pretty cool article whereby Coach Niumatalolo touches on the differences between Ohio State and Navy.

Very good read.

They don't just represent the military. Lol They are in the military. They are receiving a government paycheck and have military rank and duties assigned to them.

Doesn't change my statement. The school represents the Navy; just like Ohio State represents the great state of Ohio. They are going to get blown out and I will be there in person to see it.

It wasn't intended to change your statement but rather add to it with the information I provided.

It wasn't even intended to suggest your statement was wrong.
