Let's all keep in mind that Ginn hasn't even had 60 touches in his college career! He basically played half of a season last year, so for him to be rated above Young, Breaston, and Hester is a tremendous compliment.

The list wasn't top 15 punt returners. Gamebreakers. Every time Bush touches the ball, he has a chance to score. Ask UCLA.

Yeah, but don't forget about Ginn's end around TD against Michigan St., his 58 yard catch for TD against Michigan St., his 59 yard catch for TD against Indiana, and his magnificent end around run against Oklahoma St. Ginn's a fantastic all-around player (running, catching, returning), and my point was that he's probably at his best when he's returning punts. If you don't think that Ginn has a chance to score every time he touches the ball (whether he's returning punts or otherwise), you didn't watch many of the games last year. As I said before, Bush's good, but Ginn's better.

I've never seen Ginn play. All they show on TV in NE Ohio is USC games. :roll2:

Reggie's been proving his stuff for 2 full seasons. Teddy did it for half. I suppose you could say SI went with more experience/production in this case. I'd take either one without hesitation and in this case, you can't go wrong with any of their top picks, especially first and second.

Why do we obsess about every one of these stupid lists....oh look, Teddy is ahead of Vince...but he's behind Bush...boo hoo....but he's ahead of Breaston...oh nice....who cares about this stuff? It's like getting in a big argument over whether Emmitt Smith or Barry Sanders were better running backs...I mean, really....who cares? One's more electric, the other gets it done on just about every play. Let's leave it at this: we're happy Ted Ginn is on our ballclub and look forward to the opportunity to stop great players like 11) Robinson, 5) Breaston, 3) Young, and whoever else we will face.

Great post Habanero. It is just a matter of who does it most when it counts and I am just glad that Teddy is on our side. and we have the players to stop the other guys on the list.

the one glairing difference...our top 3 game breaker touches the ball on every offensive play, your top 2 game breaker maybe 1/4 as much...


p.s. that total is just a guess,

Oh come on now, it isn't like that at all...Bush and Ginn are in the same league, Smith is lightyears shittier than Sanders :wink:
