Linthicum is pleasant surprise. He had a good year. How many times did you hear his name called for a bad snap or totally missed block? Maybe a handful of times if that.

Saying CK2 not to take away from Lithicum at all. He was incredible this year. Really matures into his recruiting rating. CK2 just surprised me and I had high hopes for him.

Reads to me like the superlatives are on a relativeness scale.
My WAG (wild a_ _ guess) as follows.
Comparing CK2 to Linthicum’s - scale of value with 0 being unknown and 10 being first team All American quality. Rookies excluded from the scale, since measuring improvement vs previous year is impossible for rookies.
Linthicum went from 0 to 6. Essentially unknown last year as far as performance capability.
CK2 went from 5 to 8. In 2023 he was good, but not more. 2024 he was excellent.
No one else on offense was worthy of an 8, therefore CK2 is Tiger Superlatives MVP. CK2 improved by 3 points.
Linthicum’s improvement was 6 points, whereas CK2’s improvement was 3 points.
OK, back to Christmas celebration.
Merry Rest-of Christmas!

No bad snaps, true. Not sure I'd label him a surprise. That's kinda a slam against the kid. Being a 4 year guy, he shouldn't be a surprise. 4th yr ol should be ready. He is a good olineman to our standards which have never been that high. But he was recruited as a center. Good thing is he can come back for his redshirt year. But he needs some technique development. He does pretty good against inferior talent. That said, most of our oline needs some dancing lessons to get them feet moving.

I’d say CK2 lived up to the billing. I always believed he could do it. I own a Whitehurst, Watson, Lawrence, and Klubnik jersey. Proud to see CK ball out!!!

As far as Qb go. I have a really old Fuller, Ed McDaniel, Flowers, Isaiah Simmons, Hopkins, Watkins, ETN, Spiller, and quite a few more. I’ve worn the heck out of my CK2 jersey this year.

I think the oldest jersey I have is Nealon Greene's. I have some older that were given to me but that was the first one I bought for myself.
