Probably, but NFL quality pass rush and linebackers would destroy a college offensive line. There's enough WR and QB talent in college to get some passing done, but they'd have zero time to get the ball out.

The whole idea is dumb. There's dudes on the end of the bench that would start for even the best college teams. How many Ohio State players would legit start for the Browns? And the dropoff wouldn't be huge. Going the other direction, like I said there's 3rd and 4th stringers and specials teams guys that would start for the college teams. Game would probably be worse than when Ohio State plays Youngstown Community College or whatever.

Follow up article to that, Fans surprised by Browns players being surprised off the field, thought it only occurred on the field.

That's why you set up a rail near the upper outside of the entire stadium and man the circumference with snipers who use the drunken dipshits who like to trash public places for target practice. Win-win (cause moats are awesome).

The 2001 Miami hurricanes had 38 players on the roster who would get drafted, and 46 who would play in the league. I get your point, but no.

So wasn't he facing a 10 game suspension already and I assume fucked up again to make it 1 year?

2001 Canes as gilg alluded to could have beaten bad nfl teams.
They had a lot of older starting HoFers and pro bowlers all over. Vince Wilfork...Andre Johnson...Jeremy Shockey...their fucking 3 deep at rb better than any nfl team ive ever seen....Willis McGahee...Clinton Portis and Frank Gore lulz...Sean Taylor and Ed Reed at safety.... Jonathan Vilma....not just nfl players but superstars. Their OL was stacked with nfl draft picks too.
We see rookies come in and dominate its not a big stretch.

Merrill Hoge is a wizard, he was able to see the future clear as day. Love the comment that if you pick him first, the entire staff needs to be looked at. He didn't go first, but their entire staff sure did end up all being run off quickly when picking him in the first round, and within the 2-year timeframe he gave.

I feel like pretty much everyone here probably said the same thing. He had trainwreck written all over him.

Yeah I don't think anyone here ever hitched their wagon to that train, Cowboys fans have never been more excited to pick a G in the first round as they were when Martin was selected.
I've always heard that too and it makes sense. There are 32 pro teams and hundreds of college teams. The pro coaches and funding and support staff is way better etc. etc.... All that said, I would LOVE to watch an annual game of worst NFL team play the NCAA champs each year. If they could actually play for something meaningful, as if respect isn't enough, it would be fucking awesome. You just KNOW at some point the college team SOME year would get really close or somehow win it and holy shit that would be as entertaining or more than the Superbowl. I mean shit, one of the reasons we love football is to see those miracle games where the underdog somehow pulls it off.
I'm real curious how Coby Fleener does for my Saints. I don't like that he got signed and immediately shit talked the Colts or that he's referred to as poor man's Jimmy Graham OR that he's another non-blocking TE. I mean does ANYONE not know what the Saints are going to do when they put their varying personnel sets on the field?
Jimmy Graham and Sproles are ON the field, 80% chance it's a pass to one of them because they're the only ones that could get open, snuff the screen, man up on the other receivers and double Jimmy. Somehow teams did that pretty well after 2 years. Or... Hay guyz, is that RB1 that runs the ball between the tackles ONLY or is that their RB2 that takes screens? Ok we know what to do. Then Brees just says fuck it and throws it to Jimmy cause Colston was too old to outrun Jesus' grandmother.
I pray to god the offense figures out how to use Spiller this year. I'm still hoping they have an answer at Right Guard too. Even more importantly I'm hoping the defense somehow improves. The media loves to rag on Brees when he starts fucking up by trying too hard to overcompensate for our asstastic defense so it'd just be great if he could just play smart football instead of carrying the team every year.
