Does Kirby waste the most talent in the SEC?

He has had 37 top 150 players that are/have been draft eligible and only 1 was taken in the first round (Isaiah Thomas). Seems like some other coaches may start using this one on the recruiting trail.

So was Andrew Thomas just a figment of my imagination?

Guess 247 shared my delusion as well.

How many top 150 players can fit in the first round?

Tyson campbell was the 12th best recruit in 2018.
4 recruits from 2018 were drafted earlier than him. 27 recruits from 2017 and 2016 were drafted ahead of him this year.

Did tyson outperform his #12 ranking or underperform it?

Probably wasn't a top 150 player (4 star) but it's strange he doesn't expand the list doesn't to 200 and I'd love to see a link of those 37 players.

How many transferred?

How many are still on campus?

And how many did O have in the first three rounds this year? How many of those went 5-5 and got skulled by MSU and Auburn. Who is wasting talent?

He was 45th on the composite. Maybe it’s just auburn math?

Wrong. Check again. Very few were Miles players.

Not sure. Just saw it on the interwebs. Didn’t do any research on it.

Natty appearance

3 SEC championship appearances in 5 years

Playoff win

He's doing pretty damn good honestly. I do think if Georgia doesn't get it done this season, I'm not sure when.

Well, anything you read on the internet is definitely true. Unless it’s Andrew Thomas, ranked 45th overall on the 247 composite, then drafted 4th overall by New York.

LSU had 14 players drafted last season. Add in the opt outs, O was playing against a stacked deck. When has Jawja had 14 players drafted ? O won a title and beat Smart twice bitch. What else ya got ?
