Who is the most reliable cane this past decade?

[Page305]

Jaquan Johnson is the easy choice for me.

 

[Xander]

Sebastian. He never gives up

 

[MainLineCane]

D J Dallas

for his contributions & all out efforts to help the team both on and off the field

 

[canesthing3]

Jaquan and Shaq have to be up there. Brad is a nice sleeper pick too.

 

[DTP]

I could always rely on Stacy Coley to make a catch and then sub himself out of the game because he got “hurt”.

Duke fumbled at the worst times in big games so no for me on him. I say no one really, no Alphas that I have seen. Good players, yes, reliable, not so much.

Semper Canes!!!

He also tapped out frequently.

Brad stepped up vs fsu lost a tooth and all his jr year he out played jameis his sophomore year and freshman year he did good his issue was the defense let him down countless times and the coaches would call completely different games in the second half and never adjusted and let’s not forget that stupid blocked field goal

 

[Hurricane23]

Duke!!!

 

[Canes Stan]

Definitely could rely on shaq to play but not to make the big play, so he’s out for me. Unpopular opinion but for the role he played, Trent was pretty **** reliable. Ima go with Jaquan though.

 

[CFLCane]

JIMMY F'N MURPHY

 

[WPB Cane]

Jaquan on defense, Berrios on offense, Badge on ST.

 

[NateDogg]

How I define reliability is not just durability IMO, it's who stepped up & made plays when you needed'em the most.

This-sometimes the answer is right in plain sight but can be hard to see

Duke Johnson, Denzel Perryman, Jaquan Johnson

 

[gabednconfused]

quan

 

[Overtown T4L]

Duke and Jaquan

 

[Silver King]

Maybe Barrios late in his career...

But the guy I saw that gave the best and most consistent effort from start to finish, who did very little wrong in a Canes uniform, who came in and took over a Prima Donna wide receiver corps and became a team leader in only one year: KJ Osborne, hands down. His time as a Cane was all positive.

And yes it sucks and says much about the program, that he had to be my choice for this decade.

 

[AlphaMarshan]

Feagles, could rely on him to shank a punt like clockwork. Never got anything other than what we expected out of him.

I know he was just a kid, but I've never been so angry seeing someone with ONE JOB ***** up over and over and over. And every week Richt said he's really good in practice so we're gonna keep trying him. Infuriating.

I like all those with Duke on top. However, I am going outside the box with Rosier. For one year, he brought back feelings old timers like me haven't felt in long time. That ND game was like being in the OB against any and maybe all the great teams we saw off back in the day. For a few weeks we were ALL THAT FRIGGING MATTERED again. The hate and fear was back along with a moment of awe. Granted he put all his reliability into 10 games and luck was major factor but we exorcised many demons -- fsu, VT, ND -- that season. Your list all did a lot for longer but nobody got us close again. Duke carried almost carried us to beat uf and fsu in one year and his injury killed that year, but it could not touch 2017 for excitement. This is just an emotional pick for me based on two games where Hard Rock transformed into the OB. Hard for anything to compete with matching OB feeling.

 

[Allabouttheu95]

That offensive line we had with feliciano, mcdermott, linder, and flowers....with absolutely nothing to show for it

Edit: wasn't seantrell henderson a part of that for a season or 2 as well?

Lmao.

I love Stacy Coley, he was a really underrated WR for Miami, but you're so right bruh, he would make a catch & immediately be on the ground writhing in pain like he was seriously hurt, then would have to be slowly carried to the sideline, then like 1-2 plays later would be right back on the field lol.

He was always on the ground like

Lol... But then would be perfectly fine the next play.

I will never forget a game in 2016 where Coley made a nice grab for a first down while running the 2 minute offense. Naturally, he got up signaling to the bench and Richt ran halfway onto the field and turned his *** around. It’s like he needed a two play break to recover from being tackled. I always liked him as a player but man, nobody ever subbed themselves out more than him.
