God, Kaplan. Just try to be intelligent, just once. I mean, there is a chance that Mike Olt will turn out to be good. Thus, Bryant would move to the OF. Even if Olt turned out to be good, it'd probably be him going to the OF.
At least two big-conference commissioners (ACC's Swofford and Big 12's Bowlsby) are not so subtly floating the idea that the 'haves' in Division I are going to split up from the 'have-nots', and soon.
So I watched South Carolina twice last season so I may not be the best guy to judge. I saw them play early in the year and almost lose to Vanderbilt I think and I watched them play Michigan in whatever bowl. Except for the "play" where the Michigan rb gets de-helmeted, I barely noticed him in those games. Lewan really had Clowney under control most of the game. Clowney was left un-blocked on the "play". Couple that with a player with too-much hair for his helmet and it looks great, but was not really that great of an individual play. Is he really this clear cut number one without any doubt talent or is it somewhat over-hyped? I haven't seen a ton of Clowney but he's definitely the real deal. Julius Peppers with maybe even more speed and athletic ability, if that's possible.
He may not be Mike Trout, but I'm pretty sure any Rangers fan on the planet would take "a good switch-hitting middle infield player who can maybe hit 20 HR at the tops" out of Profar right now if it was offered.
