The reason that nobody mentioned him was cause the whole world new Curtis Pulley was going to win that year. That being said he should have been cause just like Jackson, Jones was a great back and an awsome DB so he contributed to every relevant play at a dominant level. He unliked Jackson fit the look for playing CB which his size is the only reason he hasnt gotten more D1 looks. That should have nothing to do with the award as the best overall football player. Pulley was the highly ranked media darling at qb at a bigger school which means just like Quick will be he was Mr football. That doesnt mean Jackson shouldnt be in the mix as he meets the definition of overall football player just like Jones should have gotten a serious look.

I think you are missing the point. No one is disagreeing Jackson is a great football player and I don't even have a problem with him being mentioned. We..EKU and myself... were making a point that mysonis55 was saying that we would pull for him if he was at Belfry. Simply, not true. I have said several times in this thread that Jackson was a gamer, but the state is full of great players this year. I simply disagreed that he should be Mr. Football (wouldn't bother me a bit if he won, actually would be tickled to death for young man) and mysonis55 got all diffensive about it. Atleast that was the point I was trying to make and I think EKU was trying to make the same point. There are several deserving kids in the state, I had even forgot about Canady. That kid is a gamer.
