Junction

Hamm and I talked about this Sun and I'm going to gives some of my thoughts. I do study recruits but I am privy to media pass and can talk to them. I do just like I did in business, I try to get a feel for the person I'm dealing with, essentially profile them. In the case of theses players, I will rank them for intangibles and 1 varible I use is what the player does for when the game is on the line. It's just like baseball, for my 3 and 4 hitters the most important stat to me is % with runners in scoring position. Well, I agree on K Hill simply because I have seen him take over a game in the 4th Q and was unstoppable more than once. However, in the case of Samples, until he plays thru the season uninjured and can display the cutting, route-running, and change of direction, I personally, knowing how tough ankles are to rehabilitate, couldn't raise his rating.

I bleed maroon KoolAid, but I also try to be objective and I'm pretty tough on ratings, so this year will be the tale of the tape. At the end of this next football year, there can be reasons for rerating and I assure you if some who deserve an elevation in ranking aren't reevaluated I'll be screaming from the rafters.
