On today's Cranning Company, we debate which school is really wide receiver you and the results will shock you.

0:07.7

All that and more on today's edition, Cranning Company. One of the biggest debates raging out in the college football realm right now is which university best represents

0:39.3

wide receiver you, DB you, quarterback you, running back you. And we want to have a series and do a

0:46.3

series that highlights each one of those because it's a heck of an argument. Now, you would think you

0:51.5

would just look at draft picks, but the main thing in my opinion is the criteria by which you grade it, the timeline.

0:57.7

Do you go all the way back to the Super Bowl era?

1:00.3

Do you just do the last 25 years?

1:02.4

Do you do the last decade?

1:04.1

And that's where I fall, because I think 10 years gives you the amount of time to accumulate enough information or to take the throne from somebody

1:40.2

as well as draft position? I like to put it all together. So I'm going to use the criteria to go back

1:45.0

just 10 years. And we have a graphic here for LSU, Ohio State, and Alabama, where it shows

1:50.4

in the last decade who has been picked and where they've been picked. And I do think you can make a

1:56.2

solid argument for all three and even a couple more, which we're going to get to. But I've got to

2:00.7

stand on

2:01.4

business for LSU. I know Ohio State. I'm standing on it. I'm 10 toes for the boys from

2:09.6

Baton Rouge because they got everything. I mean, you look in the last, just in the last 10 years alone.
