Dileo comparison to..

Jordan Shipley from Texas is what comes to mind for me.
Dear flying spaghetti monster
Please use your noodly appendage to speed the great kitchen timer in the sky to make it early fall. I'm not sure how much longer your humble cook can make it with everyone obsessing over high school juniors.
Ramen
I like the part where he reminds you of a guy that he doesn't actually have much in common with.
False! Lack of melanin, duuuh
Annnnnd he surpasses mcfarlin
Even McFarlin is roasting this guy! lol
If you're looking for a positive comparison, might I suggest Kyle Williams of Arizona State?
Like Dileo, Williams was a lightly-regarded multipurpose player coming out of high school. He was predominately used as a RB, but still managed 364 yards receiving in his senior year. His best attribute, it was thought, was his ability as a punt and kick returner.
Since coming to ASU, he has found a home at slot receiver (although his return skills have proven to be every bit as valuable as expected). Through his hard work, he enters the year as the #1 receiving option, and as one of the players about whom Sun Devil fans are most excited. He is to ASU what Ted Gin Jr. was to OSU a few years ago. With a big year, he's capable of going from a 3* recruiting afterthought to a late-second round NFL draft choice.
Im not sure if your calling Ted Ginn a 3-star recruit or not but if you are, Ted Ginn was a top-5 recruit coming out.
I think he's saying that Kyle Williams is as valuable to ASU as Ted Ginn was to OSU.
Exactly. Ginn was an elite returner who grew into his team's most important WR. Same with Kyle Williams (just not as elite generally). Hopefully same with Dileo.
wes welker, etc
Really. This type of post takes talent, creativity and an intimate understanding of the character you've created here on MGoBlog. The humor is intelligent and subtle, but not pretentious. You've outdone yourself. Bravo.
Joe Jurevicius.
Both are short, and white... Then again you could say the same thing about most of my HS football team, in that most of us were short, and white.
I think he's a lot like JaMarcus Russell.
He plays a lot like Ed McCaffrey.
He reminds me alot of Zoltan Mesko.
I'm torn between John Kolesar and Yale Van Dyne.
Yeah except Shipley was a 4* star recruit with 4.4 speed and had offers from the big Texas schools and Oklahoma. Not to mention he is 6 feet tall and was ranked the #18 WR in the nation while playing in the Army All American game. Oh and he broke several Texas High School receiving records while he was at it.
While I like the optimism in the camparison its a huge reach to compare those two.
Fine I'll throw a white receiver out there....He reminds me of Mike Furry.

How about Jeremy Bloom? I'm sure someone in the media will pick up on that comparison if he runs back a couple of kicks for TD's.
Nick Davis. Wes Welker. Tim Dwight. Tom Waddle. Steve Largent.
For the Win
Hey, Tim Dwight was explosive. He took a punt to the house against us in '97
Except Dileo is like 5'11 and 175. Peterman is 6-1, 200 lbs.
Move him to cornerback and he can be the next Mike Jolly. He's a jolly Jolly!!!!
