1. Okafor > Howard. I thought the Magic were idiots.
2. Sam Bradford was the next Manning. I still thought I was right after his rookie season. The guy just never got better...
3. Tyrus Thomas was better than Aldridge and Noah. LOL.
4. LSU would win the national championship this year.

I have tons more, but those are what I can think of right now.

Philip Rivers was a system QB at NC State and would be a mediocre QB in the NFL.

Auburn would be better than Florida in 2012. Both programs were in comparable spots coming off of 2011.

I was off by 8 wins or so.

XFL would do ok

Robin Ventura could handle Nolan Ryan

That a major league outfielder would never turn a fly out into a HR by bouncing the ball on his head

That LSU was toast in the 9th inning with 2 outs in the last game of the 1996 CWS

That Michael Jordan would crack a major league roster

Missouri will go 0-8 in the SEC in 2013.
Les Miles is a stupid hire for LSU.
Trent Johnson is a great hire for LSU.
Dallas will never win an NBA title. To do that with their lack of defense, they'll have to shoot better than 50% from downtown in the Finals, which is impossible.
LSU will beat Alabama in January.

Barry Sanders was too small and slow for the Pros and would be a bust.

(I was a kid - what did I know?)

i think is said perfectly. i, too, loved him outta college, and chalked it up as being right after his first(good) year. then he just got worse and worse and looks like a different player. everyone rips jamarcus for getting fat on guaranteed cash-- i think sammy bradford should be in that category as well.

1) Mark Prior/Kerry Wood duo was gonna win multiple Cy Young awards and bring us to the promised land

2) Matt Flynn was going to be a good NFL quarterback

3) Calvin Johnson was going to be a bust
