Rivals.com 2009 Top 100 Players Countdown - Where's Masoli?

[SuperDuck]

I've been following this list for 98 days now and staying on alert for Oregon players. Someone else already posted that LaGarrette Blount was #37, but I haven't seen Jeremiah Masoli yet and there are only two more spots, one of which is guaranteed to belong to Tim Tebow.

I'll be shocked and a bit angry if they were actually dumb enough to leave him off the list. Then again, he may pop up at #2 tomorrow, who knows? Actually, that would surprise me as well.

Any thoughts? Has anyone else been following this closely too?

Doesn't matter because he will prove all the doubters wrong this season and be even better next season, possibly be in the running for the Heisman!

Well, remember, he was really pretty bad for all but the last few games of the season. People who aren't paying attention (Rivals) might attribute that to inconsistency. I think it's because he was still learning the system and wasn't anywhere close to comfortable until two thirds of they way through the season, but I could see how an outside observer wouldn't look at it that way.

What Masoli did for us last year was really impressive. He wasn't cleared to play til the week of the Washington game, didn't know the offense at all and still played well for us, especially the final stretch which is more indicative of what kind of player he is. He wasn't even expected to play last year. The national media fails to realize these things when they talk about him. He is a stud and a winner and this offense is in good hands for the next year or two.
