    Update on Chris Hogan

    in The Stadium Wall Archives

    Posted · Edited by SWATeam

    He's played football his whole life. He was a very good high school player who got college scholarships, he just choose lacrosse for four years in college and then played college football a year. Then five years in the pros.

    And again, people that don't think he is very good don't hate him. They may be entrenched in their position as you say, they just don't think he is as good as the hype.

    So you think that that one year at Monmouth, after a four year hiatus, got him as ready for the pros as the normal route? Taking that much time away from the sport, at that age, is HUGE

     

    I'm not sure how much hype there is

    I don't think anyone hates Hogan. They just don't see anything more than a pretty good overachiever who is a better story than actual receiver, and like another player with potential better.

    I don't think that's true. People dug in on a position years ago and are holding out hope to be proven somewhat right.

     

    My problem with this discussion, which comes up over and over, is your point about potential. Hogan is a rare athlete with a great combination of size, speed and strength. The fact that he hasn't played football for that long makes me think that he will continue to get better. The only thing that I can think of is that people discount his athleticism because he's white. IDK.
