I disagree. I don't think it is as much ManCrush as much as I appreciate the hell out of what he did for Wyoming football. He was a hard worker and is everything we are looking for in Laramie. I felt when Smith was on the field we had a chance, no matter what.
Is it considered a "man crush" to follow someone who was one of the most successful Cowboy players in the history of our program? Is it a Man Crush to also follow the journeys of Purcell, Prosinski, Wendling, Herron, Huff, Floyd, Unrein? No, it isn't, so get over your sour grapes with this. I want nothing but success for these guys that put lives into Cowboy football.
An entire article on SI written about the very player who ALL OF US emotionally clung to for years while he never gave up for the Pokes. This article was well written and highlights the travesty he went through.
Call it a Man Crush, I call it being a fan. I am a fan of Brett Smith.

Mariota and Winston in the 1st (maybe even 2nd) and that might be it for QBs until the 3rd?
Free agency isn't much better. If you need a QB, it is a bad year for it.
Projections yesterday said that Winston will be the #1 pick to Tampon Bay, and Mariota the #2 pick to Tennessee. So, I would have to agree, and say they are both picked first round, at least top 5.
With the lack of potential at the QB spot this year, that very well could be and would not surprise me at all. However, if something comes up between now and draft day, particularly with Winston, then I also wouldn't be surprised if he slipped a bit. In other words, if all looks good after the combine, then I could see them going fairly high. I'm not sure either are viewed as "super-talents" so I think both would be prone to slipping a little if there is a hint of anything (bad combine, personal issue, whatever). Just my take on it and why I listed maybe even 2nd. At this point, smart money is on t10 for both but a lot can change.

I'm starting to think that Burman has been laying the pipe to ragtimejoe1's wife
Insults are the last resort of fools with a crumbling position.

+1000, I have the same emotion for every player that has left Wyoming and attempted a career beyond College.

Same here. Brett is a great kid and was one of our best players ever. Nothing wrong with keeping track of what he does after college.

Ha ha. I have a worthless Communications degree. By sheer luck I landed a pretty good gig. But, yeah, what a travesty pursuing a Communications degree.
That degree's got HR Business Partner written all over it, lol.

I'm not sure on Mariota, could be decent. Sadly I think Winston has the potential to be a good pro QB. If he gets his other poop together, he'll be easily better than Manziel.

Winston has the same potential Ryan Leaf did. He's got a bright future if he pulls his head out of his ass. Unfortunately that's not going to happen. That dude is missing some gray matter.
