and six All-American seasons, which ranks second behind that of Alabama and LSU (eight).


So Ohio State is, at best, 3rd.

Ha Ha @Ha Ha Dicks and Barron being noted. Mediocre at best and one plays LB now because his coverage skills make Landon Collins look like Deion Sanders.

He’s garbage. Constantly out of position, and when he does he commits a PI. There’s a reason the struggling Giants wanted him to be traded. He was a weak link

Being named DBU isn't about who is currently in the NFL, it's earned over years and years of putting quality DB's in the NFL.

The fact that Georgia isn’t even in the Top 10 for RBU makes this list garbage.

So they throw in Eli Apple who’s career has just began to turn around with the Saints as one of OSU “stellar DBs”, and Lattimore who is has been very good so far, but just entering his third season, but forget Tradavious White, Laron Landry, Corey Webster, and a few others.

Patrick Peterson has been to more Pro Bowls than every DB listed for Ohio State + Alabama, combined.

I’m perfectly fine with LSU losing the dbu schtick.

Would gladly trade for pretty much entry other position on field.

You are all falling for ESPN’s blatant trolling.

I gave you a thumbs up as I was reading, then I read the last sentence and had to go back and change to a down.

Apple's very serviceable. Garbage is a stretch for sure.
