Epic fail - it was ESPN and not SI.  It was already posted in another thread.  Are you drunk?

Hemingway as a bust is because ESPN had him ranked so damn high.  Ahead of Dez Bryant if memory serves correct.  He's had injuries and had to deal with Rich Rod's non-outside WR friendly scheme, and a bunch of crappy throwing QBs.  Hemingway is a stud that will most likely be a NFL WR, only drafted very late.

I support your leniency toward non-Mgoblog addicts.  A few people on this site should look up the word "life" and actually attempt to get one.  I thought sites like this were meant for fun and to show camaraderie, instead it seems to be a few basement dwellers only social outlet.  f

If this guy can stay healthy then he will bust someone's ass that's for sure. When you watch him run though he always looks like he's ready to fall apart, like a 80' Chevette.

ESPN's assessment of Hemingway is very fair; consider who they ranked 29th overall, you may have heard of him: Dez Bryant.  They clearly had reasons for ranking him the 19th best player in the country.  His career numbers (939 yards and 7 TDs) raise a big red bust flag.  Thankfully, Hemingway has one more year to prove ESPN wrong.

I can't disagree too much. I mean, Hemingway is a good player and down the stretch last year he was better than Roundtree, but he isn't a top 20 player in the nation type.

Wasn't he a 3/4 star, varied on rivals and scout. It's not like he was a huge name out of high school, with all of the injuries he's had I'd say he's done pretty well while in the maize and blue.
