Who is the Irish Player of Year?

[stonebreakerwasgod]

Some candidates...

Trevor Laws
John Carlson
David Bruton
Sam Young
Maurice Crum
Armando Allen
Jimmy Clausen
Mike Anello
James Aldredge
Zibby
Robert Hughes


Personally, I'm going with:

1) Laws
2) Crum
3) Anello
4) Bruton
5) Carlson

Trevor Laws, the rest aren't even in the same time zone.

 

[Newc]

I've gotta say its Laws. Absolutely dominant all year long. He has been the only player that was consistant from start to finish.

 

[GoshenGipper]

Trevor Laws and it isn't even close. The only other one that really should be in the argument is Crum.

 

[Sureal]

Trevor Laws. Non debatable.

 

[johnnd05]

1. Trevor Laws
2. Laws, Trevor
3. Big Trev
4. The Long-haired Arm of the Law
5. T-Bone

Other than that, I'd put Kuntz, Bruton, and Walls ahead of Crum on defense ... sorry, I can't think of anyone on the offensive end who's actually played well enough, and with enough consistency, to be considered a potential PoY.

 

[Junkhead]

Laws.

 

[ND_Ownz!]

Laws or Bruton

 

[IrishRamMan10]

Trevor Laws, no other player is close

 

[SteveM]

Demetrius Jones

For running the fly pattern...

 

[loomis41973]

Laws in a landslide.

 

[notredomer23]

Laws
Anello(the kids got heart)
Bruton(he made Duke's tight end cry!)

 

[Timugen]

Laws, and it's the biggest landslide victory since Reagan clubbed Mondale.

 

[wahoo]

This is a no-brainer...Laws in a landslide. No one on offense is worthy of any consideration

 

[Sweeney6083]

Dayne Crist

 

[stonebreakerwasgod]

That's just wrong, Sweeney.

 

[jonesman]

I am going with Clifford Jefferson!!!!! I still remember all his stellar plays. My brother and I decided that the only reason he had number 15 way back then was because every time his name was called, he was being assessed another 15 Pass Interference penalty.

 

[rockne19]

it seems like whoever wears#15 in the secondary for nd since 1997,is a pretty bad db-rossum,great kr-bad db,jefferson-enough said,jackson-bad, and ferrine-when he plays he gets burnt.i think rossum's nickname was toast at nd?

 

[piyachi]

I know this doesn't really make him a stellar player but Ferrine had a nice breakup in the endzone - danny mccarthy has #15, so I hope he either doesn't carry the number over or he makes it into something special.

 

[rockne19]

it was also with dukes backups and with about 1 minute left in the game.

 

[4LeafClover]

1.) trevor laws for all season
2.) maurice crum for his effort that earned the victory vs USC

next year my vote goes to darrin walls

 

[stonebreakerwasgod]

I think you mean UCLA. Walls and Gray (and Bruton) need to have good years.

 

[portlaNDgal]

No love for Goeff Price, player of the game for USC?

He'd be my 2nd place behind Laws. He had some bone head plays but a good season overall. I think we'll miss him next year almost as much as we'll miss Laws.

Maust has played pretty well the past couple of weeks ...

The Fans ( The 12th man) For keeping the faith.

 

[rockne19]

laws.

 

[goldandblue]

Laws by a land slide!

 

[IrishinTN]

Laws, undeniably. But give Aldridge some reps for running behind a line that was discombobulated most of the season. And Bruton or Crum could be next year's winner.

 

[goldendomer]

Lawsss!

Ah, I've been out of hte country for 3 weeks and have only gotten the scores. After seeing the scores, I lost interest in searching for highlights.
