If it is, the durability issue rears it ugly head.

Apparently we suck at voting.

I hope somehow Isabella has a great game and breaks one for a long td this weekend. It would be a great way to end his career and do it against a big time team. Just hope he's healthy enough to have a big game along with Marquis

Cannot be more proud and pumped for this kid, against Georgia, he goes out and shows everyone that he should 1000% be drafted and is good enough to be in the NFL.

15 catches, 219 yards, 2 TDS

WOW!

Just imagine if Whipple hadn't burned his true freshman season by using him as a kick returner (17 returns in eight games) on a 3-9 team. He had two catches and three rushes that year.

(On the flip side, he returned a combined six kickoffs and nine punts his last three seasons.)

He really is amazing. I'd love to see him in Foxboro next year. Congrats to Andy on a record setting individual season.

It's not how you start, it's how you finish. :) Being serious, he broke the season and career records for yards receiving yesterday so all is good.

I just voted and our response is less than pathetic. I hope fan voting isn't a major factor in the decision.

It was less than pathetic in the last round too.... yet he still advanced. I doubt there's much validity in the fan vote.

I tweeted the link out to a bunch of SEC schools not named Alabama and Andy has jumped from less than 2% to over 3.25% in the last 10 minutes. Gotta get the anti-Bama machine going!

^ Thanks for sharing. That was a very well written and in depth article.

I thought I saw Kirby Smart call him a 2nd or 3rd round pick after the Georgia game. I'm not so sure as he's not a perfect fit for every team but he can certainly be a special player in the right system as we have been lucky to see this year.

Got Camby to tweet the link out... sent it out to some other notable alum (and Hulk Hogan... because why not?). Almost at 6% now.

Over 9% now. I suggest getting on twitter and liking and retweeting any post someone has made about voting. Get the word out there.

Hoping those ones directed at SEC schools helps. May need to do it to the Big12 schools as well.
