    Cameron, Vince's completion is better, and I bet he has more total yards too. Yeah, I still think he is the best quarterback in college football. Probably the best since Vick.

    Dude, Vick wasn't even a good quarterback in college. He has shown promise at the NFL level of being so-so on throwing, but depends heavily on his legs to make plays. The one thing Vince and Vick will have common is the short shelf-life from taking the punishing hits. I know everyone will probably say that Vince is too quick to get I might remind you that everyone said that about Vick. How many times has he gone down with injuries. It WILL happen at the NFL level if you rely too much on your legs to throw the ball. While Vince has shown more promise throwing the ball, all we can do is guess at what his NFL career will be. Only time will tell. The best quarterback since Vick? I'd take Carson Palmer over Vick anyday. Throwing quarterback's will always be a step ahead of run-pass quarterbacks in the NFL.

    I'll go ahead and renig my previous statement and call out Vince and say that he is the best quarterback ever to play collegiate football.

    As I said before, Young will not play one down in the NFL as a quarterback. Vick is an exception, but pro teams don't need that type of guy. The reason they are successful in college is because offensive lines are not as fast or experienced, and plays will fall apart more often, a scenario in which you want your QB to be able to run and make something out of nothing. However, this doesn't happen in the NFL, and the pros want a guy who can stand in the pocket (protected by his more experienced o-line) and bomb the ball. This is why teams want guys like Troy Aikman and Carson Palmer. Vince Young can kind of run and can't throw, and as a result will be a career backup receiver.

    He'll play because of popularity and someone will want to some fans in the stand. He'll be put somewhere for the organization to make money off him. The better player won the Heisman on Saturday Night, and the best team in NCAA will win the Rose Bowl. That will be USC. I wish Vince the best of luck, and I would tell him to save as much money as possible because he will not have a long shelf life.
