Robert Nkemdiche? You have to be joking.

And on what planet are Vince Young and Adrian Peterson SEC alumni?

Berry too low
Posted on 8/4/25 at 12:26 pm to TideSaint
Eric berry easily better than 5 people ahead of him. He’s arguably better than another 5 on top of that.

Are Texas and Oklahoma gonna swap out the conference emblems on the field whenever they honor players and teams from the past?
They played for a school that is currently a member of the SEC. Don't piss your pants over it.

What are the criteria for this ranking?
Posted on 8/4/25 at 12:29 pm to TideSaint
They never played in the SEC. That is a necessary condition prior to becoming SEC alumni.

Their ranking is formulated by a combination of their prep accolades, recruiting hype, college career and their NFL Draft slot. Professional success doesn’t factor into the equation.

Was Derrick Henry not a 5 star?

Over Chris Jones too
Posted on 8/4/25 at 12:40 pm to TideSaint
Cam too low
Eric Berry way too low
Percy Harvin too low.
And… No, The Texas & OU players do not belong. I don’t care that Texas and OU are now in the SEC. VY and AD never played a single game while being in the SEC.

does anyone actually think Vince Young was better than Tebow or Cam?
Posted on 8/4/25 at 12:51 pm to TideSaint
This is an objectively awful article.

I would love to know how that is measured

He was a 5 star and should be on the list.

To include Robert Nkemdiche but not Chris Jones is preposterous.

You could make an argument for any of the 3. Texas fans are going to say VY, Florida fans are going to say Tebow, and Auburn fans will say it's Cam.
They were all great. We should leave it at that.
