I am pretty sure that he was named on some preseason lists - Not that that really means much. He was however in the top 5 nationally in yards, yards per catch, and touchdowns before he went down with his injury. That is a pretty big loss, no matter how many blue chip recievers you have backing him up. And to add to that, Armando Allen was in the top 10 in rushing coming into the purdue game, and Clausen was in the top 5 in yards, touchdowns, and passer rating. So to sum up, ND was missing their starting fullback, their number 1 receiver (top 5 nationally), their number 1 tailback (top 10 nationally), and their starting QB (top 5 nationally) was banged up and missed a large chunk of the game. That is a lot for ANY team to overcome. Despite that, they moved the ball fairly well at times, put up 24 points, and got the win. |

I'm well aware of all of that, and I know Floyd is a stud. Fact is, he never was an AA so I was giving him shit about it. I think Floyd will be the best pro on ND's roster. |

“He’s always been a guy — maybe to a fault — he would always try to do what I said. That seems like something simple in coaching, but those are the guys I hang my hat on. We’ve had some guys in our program, we had a couple guys that felt I had a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. And they were right — I do have a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. I like guys that go to class, that are academic All-Americans, that come early, that stay late, that love the game of basketball. I am biased towards those guys. And I’m biased towards Rob Hummel. But I’m also biased towards their habits, their work ethic, and how they carry themselves." "I’d take him to the ends of the earth — I’d want him playing for me.” - Bo Ryan on Robbie Hummel

If he can stay healthy that is. How about that receiver class coming out of high school Floyd, Julio Jones, and AJ Green - all three of whom i think are potential future NFL Pro Bowlers. |

AJ Green is studly. He may be the best WR in college football right now. |

So, in simpler terms, Unbathed is caught again in yet another LIE! |

True or false: Floyd is an All-American (not just on some preseason lists). Unbathed = LIAR |
