I agree with both of these statements, however 1,000 vs 100 is a huge difference regardless of hypotheticals.

Decker, like Mitchell, would not see the playing field much on LSU's football team due to the WR depth the last few years


nice homerism. decker could have been, at least, the no.3 receiver for LSU last year

Not sure what kind of baseball player he is though.

pretty good, considering he took off 2 years to concentrate on football and only plays from Jan-June. and yes, i understand jared does the same and i think he's a hell of an athlete.

i'd take decker (obviously) based on production, but for the record i'd give the advantage to decker in football and mitchell in baseball

I can handle this, but I dont think we need more depth at WR so Mitchell it is.

Maybe, but without consistent QB play, his stats would have been way down, just like LSU's #3 (Toliver or one of the Mitchells). No way he would have been ahead of Byrd or Lafell in 08, Doucet in 07, or Bowe or Davis in 06. So being #3 in 08 would not have worked for him...he wouldn't have gotten any catches.
