I hate to say it because I like the guy, but Leonard Fournette

Can't agree with this. He put up some outstanding numbers, and arguably could have been invited to NY for Heisman consideration. Yes, he was promoted higher than that...but I think you can find more players who were promoted much higher with less results.

Sam Darnold jumps to my mind immediately from last season.
He was being pushed heavily for the Heisman Trophy going into this season and finished with 26 TD passes and 13 INTs. That is very poor production from a Heisman hyped individual.

Ok. Maybe I am looking at this wrong?

I took you to mean a player who was touted to be great in college and was not. Are you talking about a player who was great in college and flopped in the NFL?

Bo Scarbrough


This is it. So much hype, never really lived up to his potential. Dont get me wrong, obviously he wasn't a terrible player, but he always seemed a bit overrated imo.

He ran for more yards against Bama in one game than Fournette did in his career (3 games) by about 80 yards. Angry tiger fans

At UT K-MAC AKA The Twitter King would have to be up there. A 5 star that never did much and he's leaving early for the draft. Head scratcher.

Bama’s defense was gassed from being on the field so long because Kiffin wanted to continue airing it out with an inaccurate QB. That championship game made Elliott by default.

Manziel. Easily. Never won anything of significance


A heisman trophy isn't significant?
He had two sensational years years in College Sation. He was great to watch in College. Idk why you people think he was overrated. Maybe because you kno how he ended up, but he was not overrated in college. Go watch his highlight film. It's one of the best in CFB.
