2011 Phil Steele Pre-Season All-SBC

[cajunfan32]

some of our players who made 4th team aren't even a lock-in to be the starter...

What did you expect???????????

We played like s*** last year... Why is this so hard for people to understand???

[CrappDaddy]

Cordian Hagans will open some eyes this year. James Butler is a guy who will be on that list at the end of the year as well.

_ Derrick Dean
Chris Masson
Lionel Stokes
D. Bentley
Aaron Spikes
Bernard Smith
Andre Huval

all deserve at least 2nd or 3rd team. IMO _

I disagree on all but Bentley...unless these guys really change from last season to this season.

Phil Steele is usually my go-to preseason publication…but after seeing this garbage I don’t know. It's LAZY reporting!!!

Come on guys! The Cajuns won a total of 3 games last season, it should not be hard to see we don't currently have many all conference players returning! Sometimes we need to be honest with our selves. However, as we all know, things around UL are changing quickly and so will future all conference teams!

Bingo!

I would be much more worried if he was rating the all freshman class.

I agree, PS has no other source than to go off of last years numbers.

Not if you are basing your predictions on previous stats. Now, Masson deserves some recognition as I would guarantee that he will finish third team or better at end of season but nobody on this list had numbers last year that would suggest recognition. Phil, like every other publication, bases his predictions on past performances along with the idea that they will progress through the given year and improve. None of the others provided a solid basis for such assumptions. Also, you have to figure that RB position and QB position in the SBC are loaded this year. Solid RB's like Sean Southward and Derrick Lawson are not even being mentioned due to the headliners on other teams like Dunbar, Rainey and Morris. However, I would certainly think that Bentley, Devon Lewis-Buchanon and Masson would have gotten more recognition along with Cordian Hagans as he's getting some love from Lindy's. The rise of Gautier and thoughts that he could take over the QB spot are hurting Masson for sure.

just checked the poll on the Best TE and yesterday the highest percentage was around 15% for one of the players now it is 63% for the TE from Notre Dame, seems like a big jump over night.
