I've never considered comparing the two. Russell is my favorite college football player of all-time. I bought his jersey the day after he led the comeback against Oregon State in the 2004 opener. I cried tears of joy after he lept across the goal line.

But I remember hearing that Jimbo was pissed at JR the end of the year, and he didn't even want him to travel with the team to the Capital One Bowl. Flynn came in behind Randall, which gave that rumor some credit. Then JR came in and led an awesome comeback that a lot of people forget because of the Hail Mary by Iowa.

My point is that Jimbo has been easier on Winston through what seems to be worse stuff, so I am assuming he sees more in him. I could obviously be way off base here though.
