If you want to read this drivel for yourself, here is the link.

ESPN hates us

If you don't want to give that guy clicks, here is the screenshot. "Tied for the national lead". Forgive me, but isn't 15>12? They are preparing everybody for giving Hyatt the shaft.

 

[volfan102455]

Yes 15 > 12 - someone needs to point out that he is not TIED for the national lead in that category. He is 3 behind.

 

[volfan102455]

The winner should be obvious!

Hyatt


Harrison



Hutchinson

 

[Hacksaw]

Don't get your hopes up

When UT is involved, what "should be" gets thrown out the window.

Good LORD those are some amazing numbers. How could there be ANY question?

 

[rltw1974]

Will be surprised if Hyatt wins. ESPN is definitely pushing their narrative. Especially with their inaccuracies on the stats they are pushing out.

 

[Tman44]

The winner should be obvious!

Hyatt----------67-1,267-15-18.9
Harrison------72-1,157-12-16.1
Hutchinson---107-1,171-6-10.9

Jalin Hyatt does not have the receptions the other do. He did not catch the ball enough.

 

[Special Ed]

You can't spell Extremely Stupid Nose Pickers without ESPN.

 

[Action_1505]

I do wish there was another giant of a sports network that could derail that radical WOKESPN

 

[sjt18]

Hyatt also saw Tillman go down to injury. He played better competition by a wide margin. His numbers are better.

Very obviously Harrison deserves the award.

 

[Rockytopvol86]

Could theoretically UT sue ESPN for the past 20 years of brand damage?

 

[fossilfiction]

That's nothing more than appealing to the Ohio State numbers. Nothing else. The guy doesn't lead his conference in anything and is tied for TDs only in his conference. It would be robbery for Hyatt not to get it.

 

[flatiron]

Could theoretically UT sue ESPN for the past 20 years of brand damage?

No. Also, the university did a pretty good job of damaging its brand by itself over the past 10-15 years.

 

[WillisWG]

Hale, just another ESPN Homer.

 

[utvolpj]

The ncaa tracks the stats. This isn't difficult to fact check

[wtmvol]

FWIW, they've corrected it to now say "tied for the Big 10 lead"

 

[luthervol]

And if you look at the caption under the picture, it claims Harrison had 8 straight 100 yard games which is also blatantly false.

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

This debate should start and stop with this point:

Hyatt had 6 catches, 207 yards, and 5 TDs against Bama....

 

[supersmo18]

I can get past the Heistman debacle with Stetson Bennett being included over Hooker, but the Biletnikoff should go to Hyatt WITHOUT QUESTION. Even the Biletnikoff's twitter page's fan vote had fans voting at least 25% greater in favor of Hyatt over Harrison, Jr., and I know those weren't all Vol Nation fans.

 

[Russdaddy2027]

Heck I say give Stetson Bennette the Biletnikoff, Didn't he catch a pass this year?
Greatest player in the country at all positions

The even bigger stat between these two is how they performed against top 25 opponents...I can't remember the exact numbers (they're out there on the web somewhere)...but Hyatt's top 25 numbers absolutely smoke Harrison's...essentially, Harrison barely showed up while Hyatt had some of his best games in that spotlight

 

[JRich]

 

[vanillagorilla]

The no invite for Hooker was bad enough. It'll get ugly tonight if they screw Hyatt out of this one.

 

[lifeisdeep]

Shameless bias. Pathetic.
