Are Houston Cougars football players getting the recognition they deserve in national rankings? This episode dives deep into the controversy surrounding the recent Locked On Top 100 Players list, which notably excluded several key Cougars. Host Parker Ainsworth passionately argues that these omissions are unjustified, focusing on standout performers like quarterback Conner Weigman and tight end Tanner Koziol. Ainsworth meticulously breaks down Weigman's impressive stats, drawing compelling comparisons to other quarterbacks who made the cut. He presents a strong case for why Weigman's performance merits inclusion among the nation's elite. The discussion then shifts to Koziol, exploring his status as one of the country's premier tight ends and questioning the criteria that led to his exclusion from the list. But the analysis doesn't stop there. Ainsworth speculates on which Houston players could potentially make a hypothetical end-of-season list if they continue their upward trajectory. He spotlights rising stars like Harvey Broussard, Koby Young, and Eddie Walls, offering insights into their potential impact on the Cougars' success. This episode provides listeners with an in-depth look at Houston's underrated talent pool, challenging prevailing perceptions and making a compelling case for why the Cougars might be the dark horse team to watch in the upcoming college football season. Whether you're a die-hard Houston fan or a college football enthusiast looking for insider analysis, this podcast offers a fresh perspective on the often-overlooked talent in the college football landscape. 0:00 Conner Weigman snubbed from top 100 4:07 Analyzing Weigman's stats and potential 8:12 Other Houston players deserving recognition 12:18 Tanner Koziol's tight end prowess overlooked 16:24 Stephon Boogie Johnson's potential impact 20:30 Who could make end-of-season top 100 list 24:35 Offensive players with breakout potential 28:39 Defensive standouts to watch this season Be sure to follow and subscribe to Locked On Coogs to hear the latest on all things Houston Cougars, wherever you get your podcasts!
