It's on free side of PM and amazing how many incredible HS players rated top of their classes who had meh college careers and were huge disappointments to their teams and families. Included was Theo who was a 5 star at OU and very productive for MU. He and others are all tremendous athletes and might latch on as fringe NFL players.
Leads one to see why really smart coaches like Eli are building their teams with a lot of Proven Productive players. HS rankings are about athleticism and potential which doesn't always translate into being players who star in CFB. Look at Membou who was not highly rated out of HS but thrived from time he hit campus at MU and came out early and very high first round draft choice.
Guess that is why Drink is slow rolling his HS recruiting this year. Sure is bringing in a lot of OT's as guess he wasn't happy with the ones he brought in from TP or just want's more competition. Sure has a lot to choose from which is a good thing.
Great article on CFB 5 stars who wern't drafted
