Hard not to vote for Hunter given how good he was on both sides of the ball.  But, I wouldn't be surprised if it goes to Jeanty.  Those stats are Alvin Henderson level sick.

Jeanty is no Cencade Pennington or Markeith Cooper that's for sure.

Sorry, not sorry, but I'm just not over the moon about that dude. He gets the ball 35-40 times a game. All the teams he played against aren't all that good (Oregon the lone exception) and again, he built those stats over a boat load of carries in a boat load of games against the Mountain West. That's not the Big Ten, the SEC, or even the ACC for that matter. He's a good player but I'm not sure he's Heisman quality. For that matter, neither is Gabriel or Ward.

Hunter really is the guy this year.

This league is stacked. The MBB is what the FB likes to act like it is but rarely achieves. Everybody is a good, tough to beat at home, has players that give you night sweats, and coaches who can scheme and motivate. Would not be shocked to see 10-11 NCAA bids when it's said and done. Bring on the meat grinder!

Some of the experts saying 12 is possible.

Nuts how many of our conference games are going to be Q1 W/L.

Yeah when most of the Q1 teams are in your conference, that's how 8-10 teams make the tourney because they can rip through the WAC, Big East, and other conferences lacking that level of depth.

Yeah you show up without your A game, have a leading player out or get two or three guys in foul trouble and you might get your ass handed to you this season.

Moore will always be Bond to me, just because he was Bond when I started watching Bond movies.

Craig is #2.  Casino Royale exceeded every expectation I had for the character.

Gonna' be the wet blanket here. 007 movies are much like the Batman flicks to me.  Once you start changing actors every time, it loses all appeal for me.

Craig is the truest to the character.

Connery was a caricature.

See, when we translate a character from a source (book, magazine, etc.), I don't want a transliteration. I'm open for interpretations. It's why I find the Bond character so fascinating. Each iteration is both a sign of the times and a take on the source but with each actor bringing something combined with the writers, directors, and especially the producers.

In summary, I don't need it to be page to screen. You didn't ask but just in case you were curious, here's my ranking.

Connery/Lazenby
Moore
Brosnon
Dalton
Craig
