Barkley/Luck comparison

[RanDux]

Just got the feeling that Barkley stays for his senior year.

Could, but look at Bradford and Luck, both had hoped the same thing and stayed to no avail. Part of getting to a national championship is Luck (no pun intended). On top of being a great team, everything has to go right and bounces to go your way. When they do, bingo, but more often then not, they don't. I wonder when the last team who started number 1 in the polls finished number 1? This year it was Oklahoma and...

Luck is a junior this year.

Sorry, nope. Luck is senior this year.

Luck is a redshirt junior

Luck is a redshirt junior

That would make them both right

My humble apologies, and I stand corrected. I've heard so many times commentators say he wanted to come back for his senior year to graduate... that I assumed - especially giving that we've heard he as started as a freshman etc. However, when I do the math; he beat us as a freshman in Stanford with Toby, and then we subsiquently beat him in Autzen and back in Stanford, that only makes 3... = JR. Again, my mistake.

I agree with earlier posts, Foles deserves to be in this conversation. He'll make a good franchise QB for the right team. He's got the size, the arm, and the descision making. Luck is still number one IMO, followed by Foles and then Barkley.
