    Re: The All SoCon Preseason Team per SP

    These picks are based on a lack of consideration for SOCON players I believe to be worthy of mention. Based on your comments below, you probably don't know Nick Nixon's status as questionable. As far as Lee, we will see. Didnt pick Hodges to be the player of the year, because I believe his stats will be impacted this year versus last year.

    Haters gonna hate....and you and paladin fan just hate Samford. You sound like members of the liberal media.

And he only shows as seeing action vs. Mars Hill, VMI, FU, and ETSU - 4 games. Now, he just may be a future NFL 1st round draft choice, but I think he's gonna need a few more reps on Sammy's 1st Team before we can think about naming him 1st Team All SoCon. Being a Sammy Homer is one thing, but how can even a Homer of the highest magnitude rate a previous non-starter ahead of another young man on the "Home Team" who started most of the season as a true Freshman at Left Tackle (Nate Nixon - played in 10 & started 9).

    Something just seems bad wrong about that.

    You say Nate Nixon's status is "questionable," yet you placed him on your 2nd Team Pre-Season All SoCon O-Line. That makes almost as little sense as putting a 2016 'non-starter/barely even played' on your 2017 1st Team Pre-Season All SoCon O-Line.

    VV & alter-ego YCBI seem to be reaching for...something...

    BTW...anyone know Lowndes High School's mascot? Asking for a friend...

    As my alter ego said....haters gonna hate. I understand the pain of pulling for a team that just cant get over the hump. Lets see if Samford can deliver on the field. We shall see. After you see the Lee guy play and meet him, let me know what you honestly think. They are coming to Macon to play your boys on November 4th. I'm telling you, he is an undiscovered talent in SoCon. So is Nick Tiano UTC, and Jarious Creamer Samford.

    Nick Tiano will get his shot as a JR and SR to showcase his talent. I tend to think barring an injury that Bennifield is the guy this year though. We may see them both on the field from time to time - at least we would if Huesman was still coaching. I have no idea how Arth will use them both. Tiano and Orr are both huge talents and I am glad they have come home to Chattanooga.
