I think a logical extension of that line of thought is that they must also think the earth is flat

Not surprising for a school that thinks laptops win and lose games...

They were told through the entire offseason that South Carolina had the best WRs in the country. Now that they have seen Scar's WRs and realize that NC State has better WRs than Scar, the transitive property would be that NC State now has the best WRs in the country. They must be better than ours right.
Cootpup logic...

then yea I could see that argument but:
Harmon (NCSU) 32 receptions 2 TDs <------------> Ross and Higgins (same position) 32 receptions 7 TDs
Meyers (NCSU) 30 receptions 1 TD 10.6 ypc <-------> Rodgers 22 receptions 1 TD 10.1 (essentially same stats)
Thomas (NCSU)(very good..poor man HR) 16 rec 2 TD 12.6 <-------> Renfrow 17 rec 1 TD 13.0 (again essentially the same stats)
If anything one could argue they are even, but
Ross and Higgins have more TDs that Harmon individually while splitting reps, but Overton who also plays the position has the following stats:
6 receptions and 3 TDs...i'd say that gives us the edge and also WE 2 DEEP!

For them to argue “better” based purely on stats is like saying receivers on mike leach teams are “better” than ours. Just bc your system accumulated yards for your receivers more easily does not make the receivers themselves “better.” Ask the nfl who is better, hell just watch them play and you’ll see what you need to know to decide who’s better

You can’t put two players up against Harmon also Clemson has played an extra game

Agree. WRU is the standard.

We're the standard against which all others are measured. Of course people want to say "Our WRs are better than Clemson's!" If NCSU were honest with themselves and said "Our WRs are better than New Mexico State's!" it would lack the same gravity.

Per 247 we have 2 5 stars and 6 4 stars Ross should be a 5 not a 4. We also have Hunter Renfrow.

Their WR corps is good. They have to rely on the passing game a lot more than we do so just looking at numbers isn't really the best way to go there. They have a very veteran group and though ours is more talented and deeper you can't discount how good and productive their top line guys are. We need to take Harmon away and also force them to throw over our heads because they will dink and dunk us to death if we play off coverage.

Not saying recruiting stars are all that matters but when all of your WRs were 3 stars or less you probably do not have a very good group.
