Here is my list for All-American honors.
I must say I have to agree with Sam Houston fans on their kids. Garner and Mikulec deserve props.
So far you have seen a lot of All-American teams. Here is the most overrated and underrated from what I have seen. Let me know what you think!
Overrated: QB Richie Williams, App State- He is a great athlete but as a pure quarterback he is just doesn't have the knowledge yet that you need in big game situations. He was shut down by GSU and WCU and with LSU and Kansas on the slate expect Mario Stevenson and Charles Gordon to have muliple picks if they stay in the game more than 2 quarters. Richie has been rusty without his man Fowlkes to throw to and inexperience as well as a coaching staff who has not been keeping the team disciplined expect to see this team drop off and possibly win only 4 or 5 games this year. The talent is there but too many injuries and ??? to make ASU a contender when they really should be.
Richie Williams throws for less than 2700 yards with the better opponents as well as 2 games west of the Miss. River and when Richie goes west he normally has off games.
Underrated: LB Marcus Mikulec, Sam Houston State- When you have over 200 tackles and have 4.5/4.6 speed at 253 pounds you have to be one of the top 4 linebackers in I-AA and most are not seeing this. He has the size and speed for the NFL and the talent to be a star. He could be this year's version of Boomer Grigsby but unlike Boomer close his career with over 140 tackles as a senior.
Sam Houston State is a team with ??? at QB but if Allen steps up this team could be dangerous.
