Point/Counterpoint: Jevon Snead
Point: Every great man faces challenges, and when you’re young, it’s the time to learn from your mistakes. Ronald Reagan was acting in shitty B-movies before he landed his gig in the Oval Office, and I heard that Nicolas Sarkozy was a hustler on the streets of Marseille before shacking up with a supermodel and perfecting his recipe for escargot. When I was eighteen, I had the honor of being the youngest night-manager of Joe’s Frozen Banana Hut, and during those long hours serving chocolate-dipped bananas to drunken teenage chimps, I never dreamed that I’d one day sit at the head of the BCS Committee…but here I am.
The rat race we call the game of football is a marathon, not a sprint, and Jevan Snead’s bad game against South Carolina was just a small stumbling block on his road to success. Let’s face it, the Rebels sucked when Eli was at the helm, and he seems to be doing just fine.

Counterpoint: One (hyphenated) word: over-hyped.
With the NCAA currently flooded with amazing QBs, I have no clue why people have their panties in a bunch over Jevan Snead. Colt McCoy is a Texas girl’s wet dream, Darryl Clark continues to put up ridiculous numbers, Tim Tebow has apparently been anointed by Christ to lead the Gators…and the list doesn’t stop there. So why the hell do we care about a hick playing for a team that no one ever heard of about until they pulled off a lucky win against Florida? The answer is we don’t. Good riddance, Snead…your fifteen minutes of fame have officially elapsed.
