    I’ll say it again, if you like Ty Jones better than Fuller, you’re a delusional TBS addict.

    I’m team Fuller but not completely sold on this. Soph Ty was definitely better than Soph Fuller.

    Ty definitely has more upside. Fuller is definitely the better player right now. I can understand preferring the upside.

    The problem with the Fuller haters is they think his floor is much lower than it is.

    He’s good.

    How about if you want to see Osborne, Puka, and Lowe and more Chico and Hunter?

    Problem with Chico is since he broke his ankle he fumbles every time he is hit.
    Hope he figures out the mental part and balls out

    People love to draw iron clad conclusions from limited data.

    He touched the ball 13 times last year. He fumbled 3 times.

    Is that enough of a pattern to conclude he had a mental problem? Or was it an unlucky fluke? Who the eff knows.

    What we do know is 2016 Chico was 27th in the nation with 18.5 yards per reception and scored 6 TDs. He was dynamic and he changed the way defenses had to play against Browning's noodle arm because of his explosive abilities.

    Reports are from training camp that Chico is back to his old form. Is that true or just standard camp talk about guys working harder than ever? Who knows but there is no physical reason he can't come back from that type of injury. And I don't buy the mental crap.
    This is the home of the well documented fumbling problem
    Which itself is well documented.

    I'll go with Chico. I've never been a big fan but I know he's super quick and a nightmare for any linebacker who gets stuck with him. He could come through with some big plays.

    I gotta go with Chico. Heard his name called out a ton during fall camp. Sounds like he's got his fire for the game back too.

    Fuller is getting drafted this season. He’s got talent. NFL scouts have already taken notice. He’s been productive with Browning; if he can tier up w/ Eason his stock will continue to rise. He’s one of our only returning consistent producers on offense..it’s not his fault he had Browning throwing to him. I love him this year.

    Fuller isn't trash, but he isn't Pettis either.

    As for the senior ready to explode, I'll go with John Clark.

    Tupo didn't light the world on fire the year he won the award. He went from a nothing player to a solid contributor. I'll second the John Clark nomination. He's another Marysville guy like Tani and I think he will add senior depth to our young D line.

    They meant John Clark's knee was going to explode.

    I think in this thread "explode" is used as in "have a really great season much better than they've ever shown before", not as in "Baze wires him with explosives"
    I could be wrong though.

    At this point, it's a two-man race between Benning and Bronson.

    Really disappointing season for most of our seniors.

    Miles Bryant has been really really good.

    He has been asked to play striker, safety, nickel, dime, and linebacker for the defense.

    He has been doing that for the last three years though. Minus 1 game vs stanford.
