Hoffman was great, love him, but Collie is in a different echelon.
Faster, better route runner, unbelievable ball skills. Collie was on schedule to be an all pro.

Collie made Max Hall a lot better than he actually was. Also Pitta. Go back and

Hoffman for sure caught terribly thrown passes a lot. Just saying Collie

Definitely a great route runner

A Max Hall comment would be easier to believe coming from literally anyone else

If Hoffman had Collie's work ethic and route running ability, he'd be in the NFL

Hoffman wasn't nearly the athlete Collie was

Collie was also sharing production with Pitta and some other solid receivers.

10/26/16 10:25am
True. Good point. Hoffs numbers were probably inflated because of that
credfern84
10/26/16 10:27am
It also speaks to Hoff's talent to be the only target and still have crazy

10/26/16 10:30am
Collie also didn't have to make the catch with DBs draped all over him because he actually ran crisp routes and got open

Hoffman was not as fluid as Collie and could not get the same separation...hence

Collie was not just athletic. He was a technician and ran super crisp routes.

Collie Hoffman go 1-2 in my book. Whos right behind them at 3 and 4? Drage
Tuskaloosa Cougar
10/26/16 11:24am
Koz, Drage, Plater, Cahoon, but I'd be tempted to bump a few of those past Hoff

Top WR

You almost sound like you're apologizing for saying Hoffman is better.

Collie had better hands, was faster, quicker, ran better routes, did better against press coverage....

Collie was so good that if he got single coverage, the QB was to throw to him, no matter what. Only the best get that.

Collie was a master route runner, glue for hands, and faster.

Collie was so good Chuck Norris asked him for advice.

Agreed. 100%. For me, Drage then Hoff. Both before Collie. By far.

Yeah, you are just flat out wrong on this.

Also, Riley Nelson may be the best QB BYU has ever had.

If you guys don't understand why Drage was so good you don't understand football

I just remember the TCU game where TCU dominated the entire game except Collie.

Difference between collie hoff and Drage...
Horacio Caine
10/26/16 3:53pm
Haha Collie was not very coverable, and he was a better route runner than Drage. No offense to Drage...
BengalCougar
10/26/16 4:16pm
That is true. When Collie got injured he was leading the NFL in receptions
Tuskaloosa Cougar
10/26/16 4:24pm
He was going to be an all pro that year without the concussions. But according to Horacio, Drage and Hoffman...

Absolutely agree, I was not trying to tear down Drage, he was very good. Just saying Collie was clearly better.

Who did drage play against? TCU had top 5 defenses those seasons
srey
10/26/16 9:30pm
Love Drage, but he had a better passing offense to play in against weaker teams
Mot
10/26/16 10:37pm
Exactly, and despite playing in those very good passing offenses and playing 4 years compared to Collie's 3 years....
BengalCougar
10/27/16 1:38am
Collie played against TCU twice, he had over 100 yards in both games. Collie did well against press coverage...
BengalCougar
10/27/16 1:25am
And let's break down the TCU games Collie played in since you are so focused on those games....
BengalCougar
10/27/16 1:36am
I was a huge fan of Drage. Yuuuge. But Collie was the better receiver. Period.
