I am still wondering what happened to that d tackle that went to cass tech in Detroit. Think that was barksdale's school. Was a five star guy and picked Michigan. William Campbell?

All the talk about Clausen sucking now in the NFL is irrelevant. This thread is about college recruiting and he was a beast in college and deserved his 5* ranking. Him not being a good pro doesn't matter and he shouldn't be in this thread. Same with Andre Smith and Bowers. Some of the others in this thread are good examples.

And to the person that said Clausen was was one of the top-5 worst picks ever, he was drafted 48th overall. I guarantee there were at least five (likely more) worse picks than Clausen in the 2010 draft alone.

Speaking of Clausens whatever happened to Rick? I liked the guy and hoped he would do well at Tennessee. Then as far as I'm concerned he pissed in the punch bowl with his obnoxious diatribe after the Vols beat the Tigers.

Dude..You got to be kidding me. FYI look back at JC freshman and sophomore years at ND. Yes, he totally su@#ed. He had somewhat of a decent Junior year and that's called being a beast! Smh.

Wouldn't say he totally sucked his sophomore year. Erratic, or off-and-on would probably be a better description.

- 268-440 (60.9%)
- 3,172 yards
- 25 TD's
- 17 INT's
- 132.5 QB rating

But to say his junior year was "somewhat decent" is just not true. His junior year was outstanding, and would easily be the best year an LSU quarterback has ever had.

- 289-445 (68%)
- 3,722 yards
- 28 TD's
- 4 INT's
- 161.4 QB rating

That QB rating his junior year was 3rd in the nation behind Tim Tebow and Kellen Moore. I'd say that's a little bit better than decent.

I was so excited when I thought we were going to get Davenport and Campbell. Boy was I wrong.

Deron Parquet has some mysterious illness and has been bed ridden for sometime now, if he's even still alive.

Davey was born in Jamaica but I believe he grew up in Miami. Or at least went to high school there.

I recall when I was younger, one of the most hyped players was Robert Hammond from Opelousas. He attended FLA State and did not live up to expectations.
