i’m reminded of Joe Mcknight - wasn’t he like the very tippy top number 1 overall?

Are you going to try to argue that a player that was drafted to the NFL after three years did not have a successful college career?

Didn’t realize there was much of an argument? Mcknight was a huge disappointment for USC. Successful, maybe for some, but not a guy who was considered the number 1 recruit?
He couldn’t hold the damn ball, always fumbling, and stayed injured. He’s a great athletic but so are track stars. He has flashes of greatness even sometimes with the Jets but ~~~~

I think its fair to say he was a disapointment in college given his ranking, in the same way Reggie Bush was ultimately a disappointment for the Saints as the #2 overall pick.

its worth mentioning that the star ratings are not meant as a projection to the NFL draft. That's a standard those griping about rankings have raised. Its really a ranking of how good a kid is in HS and how he projects to the next level, college, not 2 level up.
