thanks for the info josh. He should be first team though. And that's not b/c i'm biased, the stats are there and he leads the other "top TEs" in a bunch of major categories. how is he not in the top 3?

I served on an All-America selection committee and presented Green's case to be an All-American. Problem was, many of the other voters (almost all representing bigger conferences) discounted Green's production due to playing in the Sun Belt. Others assumed that he was merely putting up big numbers in a spread offense and did no blocking. I did my best to show that he had great numbers in and out of conference play and despite missing time due to injuries. He's definitely on the radar for next year on a national scale.

Thanks for pleading his case. Keep it up b/c the more they hear about this guy, the better chance he has. If we hire Hudspeth as our next head coach, I could see us going to him all the time with his system.
