The same people that said that also felt that Matt Lienhart and Alex Smith would be great all-time NFL QBs, they also said that Eli Manning could never achieve what his brother did and would never be a great QB. I stopped listening to the ESPN hogwash a long time ago cause most of the time they don't know squat. Let him test the waters, we will never know until he tries.
Regardless Tebow was one of greatest QBs to ever play college football. He's a classy team player who put a lot of the responsibilities on his own shoulders, he carried his team all the way to the championship game and won. He made a promise and stuck with it. Hes the anti-Vick and will make a great player no matter what cause he cares about the game.

What Mel Kiper, Jr. says about a player's NFL future has zero do to with acheivements at the collegiate level. Tebow's leadership skills top anyone that I can think of in the past 38 yrs including football, basketball or baseball.
Doug Flutie, great leader, -0- championships. Magic Johnson, great leader, 1 title. Bill Walton (big fan of the 70's UCLA teams) won two titles but wasn't the leader that Tebow is.
This is not a "who is the best NFL QB prospect" or "who is the greatest QB in college history" post. This is the greatest leader of any collegiate athlete. To this point, no one has suggested anyone relatively close to Tebow.

And yes, Mel Kiper is a douche.

Hmmm...
By no means do I think this player is intelligent but if you're going to talk about a great collegiate leader I don't think you can forget about Charlie Ward.
Heisman trophy winner, Davey O'Brien winner, led the Seminoles to their first national championship.
Played basketball for FSU, and baseball.
Got drafted by the New York Yankees, picked up by the New York Knicks, and could've went to the NFL had he wanted to.
He was the captain for FSU CF, and when a players mother died he became the "surrogate big brother" to the player.
He also was the Vice President of student government while at FSU.
Pretty impressive if you ask me

Funny. Just interested to see the response from the TS crowd. I am not a Florida fan at all but I do call them as I see them and Tebow is the best leader among college athletes that I've seen in my lifetime (Peyton Manning and Al Wilson were outstanding at UT).
