The best player in college football


Our boy Colt was up in Bristol, Connecticut this week to do various ESPN radio and television shows. Colt has turned himself into a pretty damn good interview.
In case you missed it, here is Colt's interview with Colin Cowherd: http://sports.espn.go.com/stations/player?id=4224724
And here is his interview on Tirico & Van Pelt: http://sports.espn.go.com/stations/player?id=4222323
When you step back and really think about it, it's truly amazing how far Colt has come. I mean, the kid was a complete afterthought during the recruiting process. And yes, I was sure he had no chance to beat out Jevan Snead for the starting spot in 2006. Even when he was announced as the starter to open that season, it was just a matter of time before the more talented Snead took over, right?
The fact of the matter is that the kid is just damn good. Colt McCoy should have won the Heisman last year, is a favorite for it this year, and will likely be a 1st round pick in 2010. Seriously, how ridiculous is that? Not only that, but he's a tremendous leader and one badass clutch motherfucker. Who knew?
