You obviously didn't watch the Michigan vs. Florida game. Michigan never caught Harvin from behind. What they did was blitz Tebow to the point where he couldn't get the ball into the hands of Percy and the other guys. I guess you could say Michigan's receivers ran away from Florida's dbs but everyone did that last year. So I don't see what you mean. I was at the game and he got ran down at least once. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JybFWy9_-Pk That guy had an angle. Nice try though. I didn't see any of the people Harvin blew by come close to catching up to him. Also that was probably the 5th or 6th touch in a row Harvin had; he was tired. LOL! It's called "SEC speed myth exposed" and it was a 40 yard run.. lol.. Great example.
Anyways, Harvin doesn't translate as well as Maclin. I'm glad Gator haters were able to prove this point. Lord knows, us Gator fans would have never figured it out. Maclin is a beast. Harvin is a very good player in his own right. The one player on the Gator's roster who I see translating well to the NFL is Aaron Hernandez.

| This isn't to say Harvin isn't good or won't translate... But to sit there and say Maclin only does what he does because the Big 12 is slow and builds for "cold weather" just REEKS of ignorance.

All this is a mute point because Michael Crabtree is easily the best WR in the countryis it a quiet point or is the Crabtree thing open to question or debate? I edited it, my bad with the spelling of moot, but what I was getting at is that hands down Michael Crabtree is the best WR in the nation, and I would take Darrius Heyward-Bey over either Maclin or Harvin in the NFL and next year if he comes out Illinois Soph. Arrelious Benn, I think he's a Andre Johnson/Anquan Boldin kind of player Story about Benn, my sophomore year in HS we scrimmaged Dunbar (His HS) his Sr. year and he ran a 3 yard hitch route and our CB came up and stuck him on the spot and everyone was all hyped up and yelling because everyone knew Benn was a top 10 recruit and we scrimmage Dunbar every year and we finally made a good play against him, but the next play Arrelious ran a go route and when he was about 5 yards off the line our coach said "oh sh1111t", 80 yard TD. Not to mention he crackbacked our best LB at least 3 or 4 times. He's a physical freak when you see him in person and that was 2 years ago. Great story. I remember watching Benn on Future Phenoms and being blown away by his athletic ability. Crabtree will be an interesting prospect to evaluate especially if he runs a slow 40 because he seems to play pretty fast despite rumors that he will run slow. That being said he has great hands and a nose for the soft spots in zones. I remember Benn as a recruit and he had one of the best linebacker highlight videos I've ever seen. Brian Cushing had one of the best receiver highlight videos I've ever seen also. Those two need to switch positions.

Maclin only played one good defense last year (Oklahoma). How did he do? I'll give you a hint: not very well. Maclin has out produced Harvin? Possibly. But he is the only threat they have on that team. So that's understandable. That's why I originally said that if Harvin were on Mizzou instead of Maclin, Harvin would have better numbers because he would get so many more touches.
Yeah, that Derrick Washington cat is pretty bad. As is Chase Coffman.
Also, Martin Rucker and Will Franklin were pretty terrible last year.

Maclin hands down. Florida recievers don't learn how to run routes, although they do become excellent blockers.
Percy can run routes. That's not the problem.
When, exactly, has he learned to run routes? Not from playing running back and not from operating out of the variated Wildhog formation. I'm sure he is able to run some routes but I feel safe assuming that Maclin is the superior route runner.
I don't know where he learned, but he learned or knew beforehand. I've been to plenty of gator practices even though I'm a nole and the kid can run routes. He runs very crisp routes. If you don't wanna take my word for it, then fine, I don't care. I'm just saying what I saw.
It's pretty easy to run routes when you have 0% to get jammed and never line up on the LOS.

Wow.
Not only is the bolded statement hilarious, but it's also completely wrong.
That was the first play of the drive on that series.
Try again, without making things up.

Amazing.
How about in a real game?

So you're picking Maclin just because he's not a Gator? |
