You gotta be kidding me

Seriously? I'm happy for BLM, but this is insanity based on what we all saw out of the guy...

Ranking the top non-FBS players

Occasionally, I get some emails from folks wanting to hear more about non-FBS football. The subject doesn't usually get much time in the spotlight, outside of a little coverage during the FCS playoffs in December or when there's a rising prospect flashing on the NFL radar come draft time.

So this week's list is dedicated to the subject: the top 10 non-BCS players (at four-year schools) that college football fans should know about in 2011:

....

10 (tie). Bo Levi Mitchell, QB, Eastern Washington
The former SMU QB no longer has standout running back Taiwan Jones in the backfield, but he still has a good offensive line and three very big wideouts, led by 6-foot-5 Brandon Kaufman, to pile up some big offensive numbers. The 6-foot-2 Texan had a strong first season at EWU, throwing for almost 3,500 yards to go with 37 TDs. His team will get tested early with three consecutive road games to start the year, including the opener at the Washington Huskies.

I don't have a problem with the fact that he's a legit FCS stud. He played well all of last season, and then led his team to a great win in the championship game.

Yes, he wasn't very good here (nor was he 6'2"), but he has played well in a lower tier program. You can't argue with that. I don't see why this article would be upsetting to anyone.

It is all to do with the higher moisture content in Washington .
What is measured at 6', 6'1" etc in Texas expands to 6'2", 6"3" in Washington. :lol:
