You’re right the draft position does matter but Jamarcus Russell’s standing with LSU fans hasn’t changed after he busted as a #1 pick. Before he was drafted he was considered a top 3 LSU QB with Hodson and Jones usually ranked ahead of him and now Burrow has likely replaced him in the top 3 but that’s about it. One thing about LSU fans is they tend to live in an LSU bubble and once someone leaves they tend to let them go. Sure they follow and pull for them but their legacy is always cemented in college.

I think that's same with all college fans. They all love their teams college stars and think they will all dominate in the pros. I have a friend that went to UT, he actually bought Saints season tickets after they drafted Ricky Williams and he lived in Austin at the time, had no ties to the Saints or NOLA.

Nor is it limited to football, Chris Jackson wasn't a superstar in the NBA, but he's still beloved by LSU fans.
