I thought it was interesting to go back and look at total number of players drafted who either played under or were recruited by Butch.
Couple notes about this list. Source is www.drafhistory.com
Rather than debate how much of an impact Butch had on someone like Ray Lewis who he only had for a year I believe and didn't recruit, for purposes of conversation I just put everyone on who either played under Butch at some point or was recruited by him.
I included anyone drafted four years after Butch left. That would at least capture Junior entrants into the Draft. Again, not saying he developed guys who were drafted in 2004, just that he identified and brought the talent in.
Take a moment and just look at not just the total number of players drafted, but the number of guys who were high-impact players in college, first rounders and/or studs in the pros.
