Teammates in college: one made it in the pros; the other didn't

Gun to my head 10 years ago, I would have told you that Juan Dixon would have had a much better pro career than Steve Blake.
And if I remember correctly, Dee Brown and D Williams weren't all that different in terms of skill in college. Whelp, that's changed...
What others come to mind in football or basketball?

That's a good one
I'll also toss out Shaq and Stanley. Classic example of roads diverging

Mike Bibby and Miles Simon
And I can't lie when I was younger I thought Khalid El-Amin would be the best player pro that UConn team.

Deron was always regarded as a lottery prospect. Brown was borderline 2nd round.

Don't kid yourself, Thomas is a bust for his drafting position
ETA: I guess since he's still in the league and gets minutes, he still 'made it.' I'll concede that. Production relative to draft spot isnt there though.

That's a great example. I didn't even think Blake would be drafted, and Dixon was an All-American.

That wasn't really the question.

True, I guess it hinges on your definition of made it. I'll stick with the tenure in the pros for sake of the thread
Posted on 2/15/13 at 12:30 am to gizmoflak
Maybe Mateen Cleaves and Morris Peterson? idk

Thought Michael Dickerson would be the best from that team. Then Jason Terry backed up all of them and outlasted them all.
