Ranking the Top 32 Disc Golfers in Ultimate Frisbee (VLOGMAS #10)

[@BrodieSmith]

Who did I get right? Who did I mess up on?

[@jonhull951]

I think you did a pretty solid job. Some people will give you a hard time, but I appreciate your thoughtfulness.

[@calebstaples4062]

I love your quick placement of James Conrad 😂😂

[@Resin311]

How you gunna not put eagle in elite.

[@justinbarnes6240]

Clemons should be higher

[@patrickparamore3031]

@@Resin311 athleticism.

[@PaulUlibarri]

I’m Elite. In damn near everything. 🤷‍♂️

[@pollo8806]

100%

[@bretmryan]

@brodiesmith lookie here

[@jeremyburch5850]

😂 This is awesome.

[@subspaceanomaly]

Agreed

[@nallle]

Just need to nail those putts in discgolf and you might get there in discgolf too!

[@campingllama]

Big Jerm is 100% on the sideline talking about the good old days at the family BBQ

[@DanoG_74]

Gotta move Thomas Gilbert up that list. He actually started with Ultimate and transitioned to disc golf. Guy is athletic and a beast! He ran a clinic up here awhile back and was talking about his ultimate days.

[@subspaceanomaly]

Agreed

[@Prez017]

I got hands, old soccer goalie and college soccer athlete and I'll bet $100 I'll run a faster 100 yard dash than anyone on this list. Give me some cred!

[@subspaceanomaly]

You got it.

[@JonReid01]

Now we need to see a race at a tournament next season.

[@NickCarroll]

I believe in you Prez! 😎

[@kingdavey90]

Woah, pretzel in the comments! Saw you playing in my local St Louis tournaments this year! (Rock Road Rumble) at Endicott and Jefferson Barracks

[@gomonkey]

You beating KJUSA in a 40 dash?

[@mychaelwasham7970]

I think calvin would be skying everyone out there. Silent killer and an insane cutter. S-tier

[@chaseiv58]

I'm picturing Conrad doing a 20 yd run up then launching the Frisbee 200 feet past the end zone 😅

[@DJfractalflight]

...and then you’d Chase IV it!

[@jeremygodsey576]

@@DJfractalflight Definitely the most underrated comment!

[@danielgraham9912]

I think you got Kevin Jones right, he seems like the one guy who can throw perfectly when needed and get out of tight situations

[@justinwarner3723]

Easy pick since KJ is a D1 athlete too.... I mean, that was an easy one.

[@danielgraham9912]

@@justinwarner3723 i just watch him play disc golf and like the way he plays. Thats why I picked him

[@patrickparamore3031]

And before KJ was a college kicker I believe he was a running back in high school. Solid elite status.

[@futthet6743]

Ezra obviously great tier. Brodie are you afraid of Ezra?

[@Propane_Acccessories]

We need a cornhole tier list. I expect it to be inverted. James and Philo would be the two best guys

[@christiankuntz2150]

Solid list, I think Uli would be one of those pesky players that everyone wants on their team but everyone hates playing against

[@subspaceanomaly]

Yes he would be one of those guys with such solid disc skills he put put out that cheeky throw to a guy who's mark is right on him but still just get it placed perfectly for the catch

[@DiscgliderPete]

Uli has good hands, and can catch anything, should be in the great category period.. Cale, should be in the good to elite, based on baseball background.

[@PaulUlibarri]

@@DiscgliderPete you mean great

[@DiscgliderPete]

@@PaulUlibarri you are correct, i made a typo...

[@zachormsby3783]

I feel like AB could be that YCC freshman coming into college and and walks on top of all the upperclassman vets. He's got that swagger, potentially in the elite for me

[@nicklemke98]

I would pay to see this game of ultimate. That would actually be legendary. Definitely agree with KJ and Wysocki being elite

[@ryancronin9836]

Uli in his day would be a pest. Would be an ultimate trash talker and getting in peoples heads.

[@connorscott1997]

Big Jerm, is 100% the guy at a BBQ just postetizing his Neices and nephews

[@calebstaples4062]

I love how quick he placed James Conrad 😂😂

[@subspaceanomaly]

I used to play ultimate with a guy who was a juggler with dreads and he was a monster on the field. I think James would get well into it

[@David45183]

Lack of sidearm would kill him

[@bigleafwoodcraft1453]

Blindly ranking these guys for ultimate frisbee has been the funniest video I’ve watched Disc golf related! I genuinely laughed out loud dozens of times! What a great watch Brodie!!!

[@b_dub2632]

I think GG would be a bruiser on the field. I'd move him up from average for sure just for the intimidation factor.

[@jamiehaigh7091]

KJ has a Goose Helton vibe. Strong, all the throws, and crazy athletic. I think Uli is the guy who doesn't age, he just adapts. He'd probably be the handler who just breaks the soul of his mark with dirty angles. I'd put him off the front of a vert and let him bomb some hucks from the breakside. Plus we know from his videos with Jerm that he can talk. I'd love to have those guys on my team.

[@MrGodspeedubenny]

The only one that jumps out to me is double G, he seems like he has that sneaky/surprising athleticism. Probably doesn’t have the stamina to be elite but just might be great.

[@Blindjager]

He could rip an ultrastar but would get whipped actually playing

[@ethanbartz3324]

I love how you put James and Philo in the shoeless BBQ group because I feel like it just fits them perfectly 😂

[@Propane_Acccessories]

He may have made that category just because of them

[@BenWolff14453O]

Chris Dickerson should definitely be in the great category

[@brettshadrick9532]

Those rankings were perfect!! Always love the videos, keep up grind going brother!!

[@brockalbrecht4790]

I think this is pretty accurate, the only thing i would say is dont sleep on Big Jerm, cant beat that cannon for an arm!

[@christophersmith4046]

I would put Nikko in the elite. The touch is there. I can also picture him running the field and darting in and out of the crowd. I think when you mentioned his attitude, ultimate would be a great release. It's like in football when you just need to go out and hit someone.

[@lukeybear8756]

Calvin gotta be elite, I think he would be dumb good.

[@kimmomatikainen1843]

And he has shown in skin match videos that he isn't actually a quiet person. He seems to have a great sense of humor (depends on what humor person likes). He has a different game face than casual/skin match round face.

[@JJ-kx3en]

Ok... this needs to happen. Next season, a friendly game of ultimate after a tournament, just make sure no one hurts themselves 😂

[@scottc4076]

Thanks Brodie...EO, Eric Oakley played ultimate before disc golfing. 👍 JSYK Keep slinging dem videos. Lol

[@camwinters8343]

I’m literally brand new to the disc golf game, but I’ve been consuming HOURS of content from you, Paul, and the Foundation guys. Based off the tournament highlights I’ve seen, this is pretty accurate! Conrad is definitely throwing shoeless at the BBQ.

[@timbarnett1502]

I think Simon might be the guy in sandals at a family reunion

[@satagaming9144]

He's probably like Philo, would probably be pretty good but just would rather vibe at home and play pool and darts.

[@masont199]

Your elite tier is spot on, Paul would be able to throw any shot and Kevin is an absolute athlete. Love the videos Brodie!!

[@danielklever2760]

Eric was like semi-pro at indoor soccer or something like that. Hammes probably has the niko and drew thing too.

[@Civileng63]

I think you 10000000% nailed James Conrad!!! HAHAHA

[@bradymccann]

I just want you to mention Simon ONCE haha he clearly started this trend in the disc golf realm.

[@benjiclay1493]

Eagle started this before Simon

[@benjiclay1493]

And he’s already mention Simon on Twitter about it

[@JonReid01]

I thought the same thing for 5 seconds and then got over it and watched 30 minutes of extra free content.

[@andyflett4850]

I would probably have to put Nikko in the Elite category. Yeah he might get down on himself, or get mad and hype himself up off the anger. But he seems like a freak athlete who would annoy you with his speed. Good guy to launch Hail Marys to with him beating the defense.

[@ericbrigman6676]

Have you seen James Conrad's run ups to throw. The boy can run all day. I could see him being great.

[@jonathandavis9256]

I love that you put James Conrad in the bbq spot within 3 seconds😂

[@kaionabautista4812]

I feel like Drew would be Elite just because he seems like one of the most athletic Disc Golf players to ever play the game.

[@subspaceanomaly]

He would also hunt down that disc like a mad man

[@paulseidel9114]

Absolutely nailed it Brodie, couldn't have done much better than that.

[@ah-ha-ha4162]

Ezras elite Brodie look at his stature, who’s pushing him off the disc?

[@tmangodsman3500]

I think your players at a BBQ are my favorite. I just love how you explained those two guys playing against their family!! You had me laughing too hard!

[@harrisonhintze1566]

I agree with your placement of Cale! I do feel like if you took everyone in there "prime" CALE WOULD BE ELITE! HE IS A FREAK OF NATURE!!

[@subspaceanomaly]

Pretty sure he was an ultimate player

[@harrisonhintze1566]

@@subspaceanomaly he use to!

[@saron321]

Pretty good List! But, I would pick up Colten before PMB (probably AB too). Ezra is hard as I feel like he would have everything but the hands. Niko would hold the disc too long and would get to down with his emotions. I feel like Conrad would love to be where he is but I feel like he could be in the great if he wanted too.

[@tonycollins7680]

I think Dickerson and a healthy Simon would both be in the great column.

[@IrkenSean]

I would put Dickerson in Elite, he was a collegiate soccer player which translates very well to ultimate.

[@gomonkey]

I think the only three he's got wrong is that both Eric Oakley and Thomas Gilbert are WAY more athletic than he knows about and I would probably drop Paul from elite to great. Still solid but I don't see him having the speed/quickness that the other elite guys have

[@dannywells5089]

Only one I would question is Thomas Gilbert! I heard him talk about him starting his career in Ultimate. I think he would be badass.

[@danielcloud7439]

Solid list, I didn’t know Ricky was tall. KJ would definitely be an elite guy, and I agree with one comment saying they Big Jerm would be the guy at the bbq reminiscing about his ultimate days 😂

[@TommyArianoutsos]

Eric Oakley has a soccer background so he is pretty quick. Probably great category for him.

[@johnthorson3255]

PDGA Combine would be a series I would watch. Don’t sleep on Vinnie.

[@nicolasgraber4041]

I think Kevin Jones is definitely right. The dude just screams athlete and would be an absolute beast

[@rolandfitzpatrick1377]

What do you mean would be he is an elite player and is a beast won the world championship

[@nicolasgraber4041]

@@rolandfitzpatrick1377 I meant in terms of ultimate my guy. KJUSA is one of my favorite players to watch I know he’s amazing

I think a motivational speech from a captain Calvin would be pretty epic. 🤣😂

[@spicole03]

I'm thinking Thomas Gilbert would be elite. I just have a feeling!

[@brianpenders8115]

Solid rankings! Love McBeast, but I think great would be the spot for him. Keep slinging them discs!

[@jessestewart947]

I think Thomas Gilbert would be great at everything and would have put him way higher

[@dakotaw3767]

Think you got the list pretty spot on! Loving the vlogmas updates!

[@jameshaldermen5097]

With simon's size and power, he has to move up a tier at least

[@averywhite2062]

Solid list Brodie! I really enjoyed watching this video as it was a nice change of pace from Simon and Eagle's tier lists. I would have to agree with most of your picks, Paul definitely is an elite athlete all around which is apparent in some of the old challenge videos he did on his and Foundation's channels with the multi-sport challenges. I think maybe some of the players in the middle could transition between average-good depending on some of the unknown and dark horse factors but overall super solid list and great video!

[@markjernigan3463]

Gotta believe Simon’s hand/eye coordination and height moves him up

[@kyleolson9868]

definitely philo and conrad are those people to just be chilling and ballin' out at the family bbq haha!

[@robertpaul3254]

I think Simon might surprise you. He might go in the great category.

[@stephengerke8596]

I feel like Paul doesn’t have the athleticism to justify elite, but then again that throwing consistency and versatility would be valuable.

[@kevingraham1219]

I hope to see some pros reaction results. Lol

[@ejshef4]

I think you pretty much got it right. You did honest analysis using your background and what you do know of these guys.

[@tristanpuryear8696]

I hoped to see Uli higher, as well as Germ, but I might just be biased. where would u put yourself today brodie?

[@dgilli6119]

I think these were pretty spot on. Great video Brodie!

[@benperry9819]

I think the list was fair, gave good reasoning for each player, would love to see these guys suit up for some ultimate frisbee in the future

[@dylansandlin4230]

I just love the name of the bottom category! I don't know these guys like you do, so I'm going to trust your list! lol

[@hydrascept878]

Loved most of your picks here, obviously it’s hard when we don’t know their athletic ability. I think Clemons could be higher as a sleeper lefty pick, but Kevin Jones was definitely a solid Elite tier placement.

[@vipchris18]

I think James Conrad could easily be the guy who is running around the field, dunking on people all while wearing chacos and drinking a peace tea. Just looks like a guy who could jump through the roof

[@zacharymarchinko7877]

Great video brodie! I am playing in my first tournament this weekend. Wish me luck!

[@skibbyskib13]

Clemons would be a top tier ultimate player. Maybe not the star player but that super consistent teammate that guides the team.

[@subspaceanomaly]

He was a tennis player and in my experience tennis players make great ultimate players

[@Josh-ji6im]

Looks like you got it right... except you forgot the most elite player.... Brodie Smith! 🤪

[@warrenholcombe5052]

Love the video! Couldn't have picked them better myself!

[@MrFozzDawg]

I love where you've got Kevin on there haha, also the Family BBQ option was made for Philo and James 😄

[@GreeZlycheeZings]

Absolutely love your choice of James and Philo!

[@jordanhiggs3673]

I think you absolutely nailed Kevin! I think Uli would probably be a good person to have on the team to clown the other team and put them off their game.

[@kylerslife462]

I don’t know much about these guys so...LOOKS Great to me!!!

[@evanstanek5838]

Just from my olden days, you've got your handlers & bombers, your cutters, and your leapers so I can see lots of these guys being great at some of the niche skills even if they're not all around elite.

[@jingerbreadman88]

You got it spot on as far as I could tell. Great video!!!

[@mathewmelendez3887]

Cool to see you comparing everyone. Not sure who was right or wrong but I'm just having a blast thinking about Philo and Conrad throwing Barefoot at the family BBQ lol

[@ryanvick331]

Big Jerm has to be in the family BBQ category.

[@bobbygunshefski6248]

Good list, I dont see any real flaws with it, super solid

[@dustinbarrett7216]

This better become an ultimate frisbee game on tour next year, and then there’s a reclassification video where we compare their actual ability to guessed ability. Make it happen. Get Jomez to record it. Make it happen. Also it’s criminal that Dickerson wasn’t in the great or elite category, haha. Fun to watch though, good video.

[@AVRYSPELZ3]

I really think no one would be average or below. so much amazing talent on that list!

[@RANDJANGO]

Love all the content. Keep up the great work!

[@christopherfoss6528]

I think you nailed it with KJ in the elite category. I can't imagine him not doing work in ultimate. I'd like to think AB would go in that category as well. Great vids Brodie! keep it up!

[@andrew56129]

Only change I would make is I bet Conrad would actually be good at ultimate with his height and putter throwing abilities.

[@nidyesdiscgolfspins9129]

Nikko would be elite. The athleticism, the hype, and the passion. That's the dude you want in the locker room and the field when your down in a game.

[@ryansutton554]

It would be awesome to watch an ultimate game between these guys. I think Simon and Eagle probably move up a tier

[@garrettbacon3949]

Brodie talking about every single player: “Throwing ability would be high...”

[@matthewenglish2287]

You for sure got James right. My man would be buttery smooth in his camo crocs

[@gavinwarner9096]

I just laughed so hard when u put philo in the bbq shoeless category hahaha

[@VEwing08]

Anthony seems like the kind of kid that trips constantly and he gets in his own head to much. Ezra seems like the kid that always wants to play ultimate frisbee and hannum I think would be a beast at ultimate.

[@Bobos_DG]

I think Drew Gibson would be an absolute beast on the ultimate scene.

[@subspaceanomaly]

Yeah he'd be terrifying

[@nicholasjohnson9095]

I already know my boy Calvin would be slayin it in ultimate. Elite tier on God.

[@zachcalderone5039]

I think your call on James playing at the family BBQ is so spot on he seems like the type to wanna go shoeless and own the family competition

[@jackmurgas6140]

Putting Paul and Ricky on the same tier was the safe move. With Paul being your good friend, you can’t put Ricky above him in anything 😂🐐

[@lanedemouy5774]

Nikko may be elite. Guy looks like he has some athleticism and probably would have good physicality on defense

[@jordanprendiz7275]

Couldn’t have gotten James Conrad any bit more right! I can picture him now with his feet up, Hawaiian shirt on, flipping hot dogs on the grill

[@spencernowell]

Would be an epic game to watch no doubt! Hilarious, but so true about James Conrad. Nailed it!

[@ryanrock8060]

Love this ranking video! I agree with all your picks. Hard for me to say if you got any wrong because I don’t know these guys personally just from what I’ve seen on KZbin😂
