Tyrone Prothro - Had arguably the single best catch in Alabama football history and was well on his way to being a first day draft pick before a freakish gruesome leg injury ended his playing career midway through his senior year. He was having an incredible season and had a huge game that day against Florida but never played another down of football after that
Another one to blame on a coach...
frick MIKE SHULA!!!!
Bama was destroying Florida in that game...Prothro had no business still being on the field in the 4th Quarter.

Katz had no true position. He was a very good hitter, but not a big, strong guy that mlb teams would fill a lineup spot for just for his bat. He never had a true chance. He was one of the best LA high school hitters I have ever seen. I’d put Mike Fontenot ahead of him and not many more.

Mateen Cleaves for me. I loved watching him play at MSU

quote:Campbell was unbelievable that year Auburn went undefeated. He put on a clinic against Arkansas. I was confident he was going to be a stud in the NFL.
Jason Campbell - surprised his career was as good as it was. He had 3 different O coordinators while at AU and damn near had a different one every season he was in the NFL.

Miles Simon is example of several wonderful college players whose injury robs them of greatness.
don't think he was thought of as much of a pro prospect.

Speaking of special teams, gotta throw Brad Wing in there.
Based on his 2011 season, I thought he had a chance to be an excellent punter in the NFL. Must've been personal issues to derail him because he had the talent to do it.

Open my eyes? Wing has started the last 4 years in the NFL avaeragimg 44 yards a punt and is making over 2 million a year. That is why I asked if he was drunk naming wing in this thread....
What more did he expect He is a punter. The goal is to simply make the NFL. And he has done that

Looks like he's doing well. I thought he could be the best in the league.
But I guess he really doesn't meet the criteria of this thread because he has made it.
