AJ Hawk is as fast as him and for the record speed is not everything. I would rather have Jacobs or Whitehurst both are better Qbs.

Vince Young will be better than Vick...
He's a great pocket passer, to go along with the blazing speed.

His speed is definitely what makes him special. There are better pocket passers, I know. But he is definitely going into the NFL as a QB.

He's really not much better than Matt Jones or Seneca Wallace..And slower than both.

Omar Jacobs will dominate if he decides to come out which he should he has nothing left to prove.

We'll see I guess. But I think he'll go higher than Matt Jones did, but I doubt a team would draft that high for someone out of position.

Vince will be a very good QB in the nfl when he gets there! He can pass from the pockeeet and run.He does remind you of Vick,but I think he will be better than Vick in the long run

He gets Texas the wins, what are Longhorns ranked? 2.
Look at his stats: in one game he rushed for 108 yards and a TD. If you pressure the guy he runs for a first down. The dude will be a great NFL player.
Marcus Vick?actually i think think Marcus is a better passer... and is barely slower than Mike Vick
He is, yes. I'd take him over Young any day of the week and twice on Sundays (insert game day of choice)..

Chris Wienkie got FSU the wins, Charlie Ward got FSU the wins, Josh Heupul got OU the wins, Jason white got OU the wins, Gino Torretta got UM the wins, Ken Dorsey got UM the wins, Craig Krenzel got OSU the wins
need i go on
college stats and wins don't mean much of anything when it comes to the process from college to the NFL
NO way young can do what vick can
Michael has the better arm, is faster, quicker, shorter(which is good for a running QB), and is even more accurate than Vince Young. Have you ever seen Young throw a deep TD pass where there's a DB right by the WR? No, because everytime he throws a deep ball, the DB is either just really slow, or tripped leaving the WR open by atleast 5 yards.
Now as Young as a WR, his hands will definately be a question mark, if he comes out this year atleast because in Matt Jones' case, he had the whole senior bowl to have a chance to showcase his hands. If Young declares early, he'll only have the combine and personal tryouts, but one bad outting at those would really hurt him, and i've heard before that his hands may not be the greatest, so who knows
Vince Young, I'd like to introduce you to Eric Crouch and Matt Jones.
Omar Jacobs, I'd like to introduce you Andre Ware and Kliff Kingsbury
Marcus Vick, I'd like to introduce you Major Harris and Brad Banks
Reggie Bush, I'd like to introduce you to Marcus Allen and Warrick Dunn

yes actually i've seen a few games of the longhorns
but did you ever watch mike vick in college
Vick has shown he's got a stronger arm, shown he's faster, quicker, and he made more stuff happen in a division that had better defenses, while the Big 12 is generally know as an offensive minded division

True, but Young has proven he has an arm and can run when pressured or has room. You are correct about it being known as an offensive minded division.
I just like Vince Young, and I think he will be a great NFL QB ( if he decides to go to the draft)
College statistics can be a little misleading . . .

No one wants to be the next Mike Vick unless they are greedy. If he has any desire to be a winner, he will want to be the complete opposite of Mike Vick.

I remember people saying he should convert to WR once he goes to the NFL because of the low completion percentage he had as a sophmore. I always said he'd be much improved because of the maturity he would gain over the off-season and just past game experience. I don't think anyone would disagree with me now that he was the most efficient QB in all of NCAA Football.

Whitehurst?!? He's over hyped big time. I live in SC about 20 minutes from Clemson and everyone here, even the Clemson fans, know he's only getting by on his name. He'll never pan out in the NFL.
Last time I checked, there isn't an NFL team that runs the Spread-Zone-Read offense that has become so popular in the college ranks. . . . If anyone remembers, this is the same offensive system that Shaun King ran while he was at Tulane. . . His senior year he set the NCAA all-time record for passing efficency. Current 49er star- Alex Smith is also a product of this system . . .
Current Spread-Zone-Read Quarterbacks:
V. Young- Texas
C. Whitehurst- Clemson
M. Robinson - Penn State
B. Basanez - Northwestern
P. White - West Virginia
C. Leak- Florida (although he's not really suited for this system)

There are a lot of people on the Texans boards and in the media who believe Vince will go 1 or 3. He may go to the Texans because he is a phenomenal QB and originally from Houston. Or he may go to the Titans, where he would be mentored by his great friend, Steve McNair, where the idea would be to mentor him for a year or two. The Saints, who would want a more NFL-ready QB to replace Brooks, would elect for Lineart.
I remember people saying he should convert to WR once he goes to the NFL because of the low completion percentage he had as a sophmore. I always said he'd be much improved because of the maturity he would gain over the off-season and just past game experience. I don't think anyone would disagree with me now that he was the most efficient QB in all of NCAA Football.
Even some members of the Texans would love Young for wide receiver.
Personally, I think that it all depends on how you look at the Texans team. Are they really that drag-through-the-street bad? (I'm talking players, not management/coaching.) If they are, and if you have to do a complete overhaul of the team, then you are likely to trade that coveted real estate for more picks. Besides, as has often been noted, replacing Dominic Davis or David Carr is upgrading one of the few spots where we show our greatest potential.
However, if you decide that the coaching is what did them in (and remember, they lost three or four very close games); if you think you have a good pool of players, then it is worth the risk to upgrade at the QB/RB position.

i cant believe what i'm reading from yall. How could Young possibly be anything like vick for one. Vick was never the #1 most efficient passer in the country. Which i might add would prove he was a better passer than Jacobs and Whitehurst. And speaking of those two guys are a joke. Neither one is consistent. Jacobs was a lot better the year before. Look what happened this season with the guy. Whitehurst plays ok at best only occasionally, he never really did what it took to put his team over the edge. And how could anyone be stupid enough to say he wont get drafted unless he switches pos. He is garunteed to be a top 5 pick. He'll probably go to the Saints, Titans or Jets. In which Jacobs and Whitehurst would be lucky to go by the 3rd. I don't know if you guys actually watched the Rose bowl or not but he is the real deal. He def. outplayed Leinhart. Young will be a great NFL qb.

I do not buy that for 1 second i think Vince young Goes into play knowing that he is going to run. That is not a good QB thats a good running back. If you're too impacient for your routes to develope then you should not be a running back. That will not fly in the NFL Vince young will suffer a torn ACL while trying to be fancy trying to pick up an extra yard with a dive in a game. And his entire season will be shot. The is what the great Magsfucious Predicts. :urowned:
