Michael Penix may be the single most impactful player in recent CFB history

Cam is probably #2, but he had a top 10 recruiting class in the 4-year window needed to win a national title.
Penix took a dogshit Indiana program to #9 in the nation. They were terrible before he got there and terrible after he left.
At Washington, he is basically breaking 25 yr old metrics for the national title chase.

Because we watch him play and think he is really good, but not all time great. Current and former teams recruiting rankings from four years ago never crosses our minds.

He plays in the PAC 10 with a bunch of other weak rosters. He also has a good coach and a team that is built on offense. It isn’t like he was grinding it out with a bunch of dominant teams every week.

Didn’t Washington have a game or two with zero offensive TDs?

Indiana was 9 in the bullshite covid season. They got to 9 by beating Penn St and Michigan teams that were highly ranked based on nothing since nobody knew what was going on that season.

So he has the easiest championship game?

Penix has definitely elevated UW, but UW doesn't exactly have a sister's of the poor roster. They just don't have the depth that the top teams have and have been pretty fortunate with injuries heading into the playoffs.
There's probably 8/9 starters on offense that will be the NFL (6 of those in the 1st 2 rounds) and 4/5 on defense. The offense is good enough to beat anyone and the defense is good enough to not completely blow it.

Or maybe recruiting rankings are very flawed or meaningless in this context...

Penix is not the only common denominator. Kalen Deboer was there at Indiana and Washington. Maybe it's him?

During the Covid year, with opt outs and players missing games after testing positive and the played what 7 games.
He’s good and had a great year but most impactful QB, sorry no. Excluding LSU players Cam Newton won a NC with a mediocre team in the toughest division in CFB that year by a wide margin

This place is no better than First Take half of the time.

Lamar Jackson took Louisville to #3 in the nation and made them competitive against peak Clemson. The year after he left, Louisville went 2-10 and Bobby Petrino got fired.

Oh for frick's sake. Step back, calm down. Everyone the "greatest" in the moment.

Washington was in the playoff a couple years ago.
Posted on 1/2/24 at 5:25 pm to Jack Ruby
Washington is stacked with NFL talent at receiver. Odunze is a top 10 pick. I bet Polk goes around round 2-3 and McMillan 4-5, maybe higher.
Posted on 1/2/24 at 5:38 pm to Jack Ruby
And he has pedestrian stats compared to the greatest to ever play. Pretty simple, actually.

Did you read a couple tweets then just decide it’s truth?
Washington’s roster is legit. It’s not your typical Alabama or Georgia of last few years, but they’re not Miss St either.

Joe Burrow had people thinking a retarded swamp monster was a good football coach.

The recruiting rankings are wrong, or there’s a new variable not being accounted for - like transfers and NIL
