It does seem low, but he isnt a playmaker for being as big of WR that he is(most on the fault of the gameplanning)Heck he just had his career high in catches at 9. He makes some crazy catches but also drops some pretty easy passes.
It is very interesting to see Coker as the top player in the Big Ten. I dont see why not though with how subpar the big 10 is.

why is it any time a Iowa player gets credit the 1st thing i see pop up" oh the conference is down" it doesn't matter the player

It does matter that the conference is down. The conference is down because the talent level throughout the conference is down, which means there are fewer individual talents out there.

He is 13th in the country and 2nd in the Big Ten in receiving yards per game. Seems like a playmaker to me.
Monte Ball (sp?) didnt he get love last year? Was the conf down last year? Why is Coker above him? Even thou wisky ran it up on a bunch of cream puffs.

Wow, i think it's a stretch, but I will take it! Im not sure you go from 23 to 1 in one week though. Four hawks in top 25, not bad.

Yeah, McNutt is way too low in these rankings. He should be above Vandenberg in my opinion. Top 15 for sure.

3 players in the top 15 at rb, yup the conference is down, go back to the clown board

There are 3 Big Ten players in the top 3. The Big Ten must be awesome!
This isn't a banner year for the Big Ten. It might not be weak, but it's not loaded, either.

we get it you are a devote Cyclone fan, and will not admit that any Hawkeye can be good

Just because I've posted on CF doesn't make me a devout Cyclone fan. But saying that there are 3 running backs in the top 15 isn't really an argument. If the entire conference wasn't very good, then it wouldn't say very much that there were 3 backs in the top 15. I mean, SOMEBODY has to be in the top 15. That wouldn't necessarily make them good.
I think Coker is very, very good. But the best player in the conference? No, not right now.

any rational person will tell you that the big ten, is in fact, down this year. The OOC records show it, the computer's show it, and the bowl records will likely show it come january.
just because a few individuals have some good statistics does not mean that reflects the rest of the league.

just like the conference being down doesn't negate the ability of a player

No, but like I said, there's a reason the conference is down: the players, on the average, are not as good this year.

I love CokerPace to death but is he in the heisman talks??? No, so if the best player in the B1G isn't even in top 10 to 15 for Heisman the conference is down. If you can't see that you are more delusional then I thought.
