Now that we’ve determined that FSU is QBU and Alabama is RBU, at least since 2010, based on college and NFL success, it’s time to turn our attention to WRU. Many years ago, the instant answer would be Miami, but times have certainly changed and now this Top 5 is owned by others. Here’s our picks.
The Criteria: Since 2010, we looked at how many first round NFL Draft Picks a college produced, how many wide receivers from a school were top 10 in receiving yards in a college season and how many wide receivers from a school were top 10 in the NFL in receptions. Of course we also included intangibles like Heisman voting, All-Pro selections, Pro Bowls, other awards, the number of top receivers a college produced over this span and pure subjective opinion. Enjoy.

1. ALABAMA
The trio of Julio Jones, Amari Cooper and Calvin Ridley firmly places the Crimson Tide at the top. Both Jones and Cooper were first round draft picks. Ridley is on that same path after an extremely impressive freshman season last fall and expectations of picking it up this season as his freshman quarterback gets more comfortable. Jones dominated SEC defenses and has done the same in the NFL with Atlanta. His career with the Falcons was highlighted by his performance last season, when he led the league in both receptions and receiving yards. Cooper followed up a 2014 season in Alabama when he finished second nationally in receiving yards and receiving touchdowns by finishing third in the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year voting after grabbing 72 receptions for 1,070 yards and six touchdowns last fall. Ridley has picked up right where Cooper left off, as he finished first in the SEC in receptions and second in receiving yards as a true freshman in 2015.

No, it's Clemson.
Nuke Hopkins
Sammie Watkins
Martavis Bryant
Mike Williams is also better than Calvin Ridley, as far as college receivers go, IMO.
