pretty interesting article to see how some of the top recruits have turned out of the last ten years or so


was made in January 2014 so not counting the last year

really goes to show how many 5*’s we haven’t gotten.

How many five-star RBs panned out over the last 10 years? - Saturday Down South

Miami players:

2004
Charlie Jones, Miami: Jones was regarded as one of the finest players from Dade County in 30 years, and he didn’t even rush for 1,000 yards during his career at Miami. Jones finished his three-year Hurricane career with 738 yards and nine TDs. He lost his starting job to Javarris James and played some for the injured Tyrone Moss.

2005
Reggie Youngblood, Miami: Youngblood was supposed to be a star, but he never could put it all together for the Canes. He was known for his penalties throughout his career and struggled to live up to his high projections.

2006
Lance Leggett, Miami: Legget played four seasons at Miami, catching 85 passes for 1,375 yards and 11 touchdowns. He never became a dominant player in college and later played in the NFL with Cleveland and Baltimore.

2010
Seantrel Henderson, Miami: Henderson is finally graduating college at Miami. The former top prospect struggled to live up to the hype during his four-year career, and he was even demoted to backup in 2013. It’s safe to say Henderson didn’t live up to the hype.

2011
Anthony Chickillo, Miami: Chickillo immediately became a starter once he set foot on Miami’s campus, and he totaled 129 tackles, 20.5 tackles for loss and 12.5 sacks in three years. And he’s coming back for his senior season.

When you have legit strength and coditioning coach and good coaching staff id take a 3 star who works his *** off any day over some five star who has his head full
 
I get stars aren't that big of a deal but it's like not even fair comparing 25-30 5 star kids to 1500 3 star kids a year

I'd say most five star recruits worked their *** off to get that five star rating.

As for head full of whatever, we've had plenty of players that were full of themselves and worked their asses off. You don't think Irvin, Brown, Sapp, Taylor, Winslow, etc....weren't full of themselves?

Dumb *** post.
 
Bobby Washington was a 5-star RB from Booker T the same year as Jones - and rated higher...

Never made it in...
