re: 10 5-star recruits who fizzled.

The list makes sense if you take title of said list seriously, not the title of this thread.
But I agree that I'm sure you can find much stronger examples than Bryce Brown and Perilloux, who had moderate success in their own right in college.

I don't think I would define Perrilloux as someone who fizzled.
well he is on the VooDoo... and might not even start for them...

Is there a difference between fizzling on the field vs off?

Mustain was an idiot for transferring to USC.
Well he saw the writing on the wall when Petrino and Mallet came to Arkansas.

Mallet transferred after the 07 season. It had nothing to do with Mustains decision

didn't it have something to do with Casey Dick?

Malzahn then left to Tulsa, Mustain and Damian WIlliams transferred to USC.

pretty sure Mr. Multiple Heismans was before the current star-ranking system, Jeaux.

freddie rouse has to be on the list

But Powlus was the epitome of never living up to the Beano Cook multiple heisman status

Willie Williams is GOAT when it comes to five stars that fizzled.

Yeah, Bryce Brown really fizzled. Right into the NFL
He's actually going to be a solid pro if he gets the starting job. Not behind Shady but for another team. You saw what he did when Shady was hurt last year
Also, you can't really call someone a fizzle if they're still in the NFL. aka Russell Shepard

Houston Nutt completely ruined Mitch Mustain's career by benching him even tho they were undefeated.
