Remember the day where you get really excited about signing a top-flight recruit only to realize three or four years down the road that he was just massive bust??

Who do y'all consider to be the biggest busts of the last couple years....or those who have the potential to be busts?

BJ Scott. I still wish we had just kept him on offense and thrown him bubble screens or let him play Wildcat QB.

Darius Winston five-star corner lost his starting spot this season as junior.

Cam Newton, the next whatever his name was from Ole Miss if I recall. Will be as good as Jamarcus Russell if hes lucky.

Aaron Boyd.

4-star WR that signed with UK (had offers from Arkansas, Oregon, Texas A&M, etc) and couldn't even break the rotation post-Randall Cobb/Chris Matthews. At Kentucky.

On a serious note Kodi Burns as a QB or Leon Hart.

Leon Hart was a 5 star Ot from South Carolina that never started a game at Auburn I believe.

I would say Dyer. Even though he did give us two good years.

When I looked at the thread title, I thought it was about Dre Kirkpatrick.

Coming out of the Albany area all I heard was how much of a badass Israel Troup was going to be at Georgia. I never heard his name again when he got to Athens.

Dyer's the first that comes to mind (man, what an idiot...), but Tray Blackmon was a pretty big bust too.

John Brantley: Enough Said

Deonte Thompson: maybe not awful, but sometimes so inconsistent during his career

Will Hill: Meh on the field, although dude could get some off of it

Tough to say, Arkansas girls are pretty endowed but not sure they are the biggest...

Florida maybe?

Ryan Perrilloux - We are still recovering at the QB position because of his dumb arse

Xavier Carter - 5* WR with world class speed. Didn't do shite in football except take a knee at the one yard line against Georgia - left the team to join the track team

Russell Shepard - Not really his fault though - coaching staff has forgotten he's on the roster.

Cecil Collins, would have been an all time great if he could have avoided the whole sexual assault thing,

Oh and Gunner Kiel, never really got started at LSU
