Great answer, probably the #1 bust in the ACC outside of FSU (Randy Moss, Adrian McPherson, etc.). Few people know that he and Michael Vick came out of the Norfolk area the same year and he was rated higher. Also, how many other players are busts in two sports?

- don't know that Janzen necessarily didn't live up to the hype, when on the field he was pretty damn good. His troubles were obviously in his off the field herbal issues...and in gas station parking lots

Guess I was thinking that he screwed up an amazing career at UT. He was a 5 star coming out of high school and certainly performed that way on the field, but very unfortunate his "extra curricular" activities caused him to get booted from the team.

He's been a 5 star recruit for LSU since the 90's and I've yet to see him play a single down.

At least Booty made all SEC. He lost most of his hype when he waited a few years to come. Is say Abrahm more than him.
Robert Davis is my pick. That kid was so hyped up after he picked us over Bama. Ended up at UAB I think after he busted.
Recently:
Al Woods (fat)
Russsel Shepard (changed positions)
Chris Davenport (fat, changes positions)
Xavier Carter (blind, chose track)
Jai Eugene (?!!!!???)
Amp Hill (injury)
Every kicker from 1989 to 2005.

There was a kid named Harold Harris that played for Arkansas. Was one of the 3 best running backs I had ever seen in high school. Went to Arkansas and played safety and wasn't any good. I was really disappointed.
