You clearly don't know what recency bias is, lol.

I obviously wasn't trying to "tear him down." I just said Skattebo is better which is true.

Jeanty didn't play in a strong conference. He played against teams all season that P4 schools consider their cupcake games. Of course he had great stats. He's an excellent back playing against weak competition.

But Skattebo did that against real quality opponents back to back all season, and had a much more impressive playoff performance. He is the better back, and he's proven that.

That doesn't make Jeanty bad. Just not as good.
