never want to see floyd again

I never want to see Michael Floyd again. Maybe he'll move to New Zealand. Before the season I debated who was the best sophomore receiver: Jones, Green or Brown. Now I've seen those three and Floyd and he is better than any of them. I hate to say it, but he is damn good. And we have to see him next year.

You can take Tate with his current abilities and make him a true freshman and that is what Shaq is right now for us. Plus we don't have to start him every game, like we did with Tate so he is able to still get game experience and continuously stronger, all while learning more and more of the play book.

That's a really interesting comparison. Floyd has looked amazing so far this year, but I think it's too early to tell. I'm not sure if he's quite as good as Braylon was yet, but I definitely think he will be in his junior and senior years if he stays that long.

I dont think hes better than Jones or Green. Put a quality receiver on the opposite side of these guys with a QB that can get them the ball, and I think they all come out to about even. I certainly think hes in the top tier of receivers with Jones, Green, and Bryant.

I think he will look better than those other players because he will have Clausen throwing to him and Tate on the other side, but he very well could be a better player than them. I think Floyd will go on to become an elite WR at the pro level after his Notre Dame career is over, which hopefully will be after his junior year.

I doubt very much that there will be any freshman corner anywhere in the country that will be able to cover Michael Floyd, let alone one that Michigan is going to just bring in. The guy is a total stud and future NFL player, and the likelihood of some kid who's currently a high school senior being able to cover him is vanishingly small.
