If you don't know the names of the good players from a school in your own conference then you are willful ignorant (unless it's Vandy in which case you're excused).


SEC fans know the names of the best SEC players, but I'm talking nationally. Alshon Jeffery was an absolutely dominant WR last year, but the only names anyone heard on ESPN were Julio Jones and AJ Green because they attend major schools. USC is not a national name and it's players will never receive the promotion that they would receive on regular title contenders.

That's a media issue, not our problem.

Besides, scouts know who is good and who isn't. I doubt elite players give a shite if the media likes or talks about them as long as they do work and get drafted, they could give a frick about the media.
