Of course I would rather have Higgins. Probably more so for the perception of him being in our backyard and choosing to go elsewhere. But hell, our program has been built over the many years with many kids that left a local program to join the O&W.
If we had to lose out on a 5* player, I'd much rather it be a WR. A good line and solid QB can make great use of ordinary WRs all day long. I haven't looked back, but some of the best producing WRs have been a product of the environment around them. I'm much more concerned about winning the LOS and giving our QB all day to find open WRs.
All things being equal, I'd love to have Higgins. But more of the disappointment stems from where he's from than what kind of player he could be.
