All Big Ten teams

[PJHawk]

Here you go, Rick Stanzi shut out of both teams, not even Honorable Mention:


Big Ten Announces 2010 Football All-Conference Teams and Individual Honors - BIG TEN OFFICIAL ATHLETIC SITE

A little test:

The O'Keefeian Unified Theory of Offense:

1 First Team All Big Ten Receiver + 1 Second Team All Big Ten Receiver + 1 Second Team All Big Ten Tight End + 2 Second Team All Big Ten o-linemen + 1 Senior Quarterback = 18 points against Indiana, 17 points against Northwestern and 17 points against Minnesota

Refute the above stated theorem.

You might need Good Will Hunting to decipher that one

So the coaches named Denard Robinson HM but Offensive Player of the year?

 

[H8IAST8]

Stanzi looked awful the final 4 games of the year.
Coaches
Im surprised Sash was 1st Team. Pryor gets Honorable Mention. Denard is Offensinve POY but only Honorable Mention at QB.

Media
DJK & McNutt Honorable Mention???

 

[PJHawk]

Rick finished the year with 25 TD's, 4 int, 2800 yards, 65% completion. IMO that's damn well good enough to at least get Honorable Mention.

That's totally fine by me. He WAS the best offensive weapon in the conference this year. But he wasn't one of the best two QB's.

Ricky was not even the fourth best QB in the conference this year.

 

[BSpringsteen]

Stats not withstanding, he had ample opportunities this year to lead his team down to victory and he did not.

It may have been horrendous play calling.
It may have been horrendous clock management.
It may have been a defense that allowed every team to score

But the QB - the captain of the offense couldn't get it done 5 straight times this year.

Ricky was not good this year....the stats lie

Denard POY and HM QB? That's absurd!

 

[ICAlumni]

We may play the "lack of respect" card a lot here at Iowa, and it's often true.
But I can tell you this... not among the coaches.

4 first teamers, 8 second teamers and a slew of HM? Wow - that's pretty impressive for a 7-5 team... it really is. MUCH respect from around the league.

Makes you scratch your head even more as to why we go 7-5 with that much talent.

 

[tm3308]

Denard POY and HM QB? That's absurd!

Like I said, he was the most dangerous offensive weapon. But he wasn't one of the best QB's. He did much more damage on the ground.

I understand what you are saying............but my goodness those numbers look really good especially compared to the other big ten quarterbacks.....I think he is honorable mention worthy.

Did you watch any Iowa games this year? Just curious?

 

[PhotoHawk]

On at least a couple of occasions, our special teams did not get it done this year and most fans immediately point their fingers at the walk-on freshman, Michael Meyer who I personally thought was one of the true "next men in" this season. With that said, I find it interesting that no one seems to notice Donahue (member of 2010 Ray Guy watch list) struggled to live up to the hype and was considered 3rd best punter within his own conference.

The question is, did you?

 

[Bigtenchamp]

I don't understand Persa all that much - he is ok but.... not 1st team.

 

[Jeebus]

I don't understand Persa all that much - he is ok but.... not 1st team.

I disagree.

Having him voted first team kind of reaffirms my faith in humanity a little.

QB rating doesn't lie. Rick finished the season with a QB rating of 160.5 (No. 11 nationally) Drew Tate's best rating was twenty points less but Ya, Rick was not very good, WTF?
