7mary3 Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Sorry man, that goes to Barry Pruitt. Just think if Barry would have played RB those last couple of years in 91 & 92. That was probably the biggest team to come thru Dayton. The O-Line was HUGE, averaged over 300lbs. That team had some high expectations and some great athletes. Barry's up there at the top.

rollinac Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Yeah the dude was a kicker...he also played QB and reciever, basketball, and baseball. I think you're missing the joke there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brett_reeves Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 WHAT!!!! That dude was a pathetic excuse for a football player, couldn't play basketball, and was a terrible pitcher/hitter. I wouldn't invite that guy to be on my checkers team!!!!!!! That's crazy talk. He was one of the best checkers players ever. ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bronco Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Are you freakn'kidn me! Google Ricky Eggleston and see what pops up, he didn't have the luxury of a Div-1 QB throwing to him. This man set all kinds of records and put Sam Houston State University on the map. I can think of several other good receivers and tight-ends that came through the system that never got the opportunities of having a Div-1 QB throwing to them. Bite your tongue bud. Now that Ardist fella'seem to be injury prone and had two left feet. ;D Thanks 7mary3 on the props for Rick! These young Broncos have no idea who Ricky Eggleston is. Pre Stewart era, Ricky has to be the greatest athlete to come thru Dayton. He played in the early 80's and was a beast. He was on varsity all four years. His senior season in 1984 our team was horrible and he carried us on his back. He was a stud in all sports and went on to be an All American at Sam Houston State. I personally think AJ Dugat is the best athlete to come thru Dayton but Ricky has to be mentioned and given his due. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rollinac Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 He was an absolute MAN. Top 5 for me goes Barry, Dak, AJ, Ivory Durio, Ricky Eggl. Coming in at a close sixth would be Ardist Conner...dude could play some serious spades and tecmo super bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backflipper Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 DANG I am soooooooo slow.... I finally put 2 and 2 together and got 5.. OK so this Ardist fellow yall keep talking about played spades too? I went to high school with his sister and got to hear about how he broke all of the spades records at Army. Yes I said ARMY.. Yall know what Army is right?? If you dont know, they are the ones that keep getting beat every year by NAVY.. But, to be honest. The only reason Navy keeps winning is because of all of the Marines that are on the team. Semper Fi..

stacey10 Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 He's certainly gotten better as the games have gotten bigger. 3 deep throws on the money and another where Terry cut the route just a tad short. He hits the deep ball consistently and there's nothing you can do to stop this offense and he tops the list easily. Yes Stacey10, that overthrow was on the receiver. Happy? Actually, the WR was not at fault that play but I believe it was you saying that Green could not throw the deep ball well and now, all of a sudden, you are saying he hits the deep ball consistently. You are going back and forth with your assesments of Green... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEWBOOTBRONCO Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Bobby Little? HAHA... Why and how could ya'll put Cody Green in that list? Cody is great! Simple. Brenham thought that they would make Dayton run. They thought they could stop them if they shut the passing game down. Didn't happen, Cody ran all over them boys.

TivyAlumni Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 You guys think Cody is another Vince Young, Codys good but hasn't truly been tested not like he's going to be tested when they play Kerrville Tivy, trust me!!

You are going back and forth with your assesments of Green... Yes the receiver was a fault on that play. You run THROUGH the ball and the post route goes to the post and not the corner of the end zone. He cut the route too sharp...the ball was right on the money. I'm not flip-flopping either, he had his best game of the year throwing deep. I never said he's now consistent. My point was he keeps making those throws and I don't see anyone stopping the offense because you won't be able to load the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The offense is as good as we've seen but spare me on the defenses, Tivy reminds me of Friendwood light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
