re: Who is the biggest bust recruit in SEC in last 20 years or so?

quote:

---

Samuel was switched back and forth from LB to RB/FB and greatly misused by the coaching staff.
Sanks was a self-made bust because he couldn't stay off the weed.

Why do you think Samuel was switched back and forth? Because he was an All American at both?

He was a looks like tarzan kid. High school (underaged) phenom. He was 17 when he started at UGA. He never was able to translate his athleticism to the football field except for 2 games (south Carolina as a freshman and Florida as a senior).

Definition of a bust recruit.
DGD. But as far as recruiting expectations, bust.

Thompson is more of a bust because he was #1 in the entire recruiting class at a position of need.
