Would you care to elaborate on why these players are better than Eric Berry? Or who on South Carolina is better than Eric Berry. Mel Kiper has already tabbed him as the top pro prospect for the 2010 draft. He will easily be drafted in the top five next year. EB has started every SEC game since his freshman year, he only just finished his true sophomore year, and led the nation in interceptions. He is 14 yards away from breaking the the all time NCAA interception return yards record, which he will do against western kentucky. He won't win the Heisman, but he is absolutely a top three player in the NCAA this year. He was all SEC first team as a true freshman, and a unanimous all-american his sophomore season. Who on south carolina has those type of individual accolades?

Are you his agent in training? I don't give a shite what Mel Kiper says about him. Mel Kiper has been wrong before and he continues to be wrong about half the people he yaps about each year. Just because ESPN slaps a suit and a slickback haircut on him doesn't mean he is a damn expert.

Top 3 player? Tell that to Bradford, Tebow, and McCoy.

So your claim to fame for him is that he was All-SEC at strong safety.... what other stron safeties worth a shite have come out of the SEC the last two years? Hell only 3 safeties total from the SEC have been drafted the last 3 years.

Carlos Dunlap is better simply because he is a physical freak. 6'6 290 pounds and has every bit of the athleticism of Mario Williams and Julius Peppers. I mean the damn kid was returning punts and kickoffs for touchdowns his senior year of high school!! Not to mention the fact that he led the SEC in sacks last year and was trailed by...

Eric Norwood who was second with half a sack less (while playing one less game in the linebacker spot). Dude returned two fumbles for a touchdown in a game. Has Berry done that? Nope. Is Berry a 3 year starter? Nope. Hell the only reason why he doesn't make All-America lists is because of our lack of national popularity and because he shares a conference with Brandon Spikes and Rolando McClain - players who play at universities with far more popularity and nuthuggers in the media than we have.

Trevard Lindley is the best cornerback in the nation hands down. Eric Berry isn't even the best at his position in the nation - Taylor Mays ring a bell?
