8 SEC Players in the Class of 2014 Who Underperformed Their Recruiting Rankings

[Remy]

I'm not a recruiting guru or hawk like many VN posters are, so I'd like to reverse the other thread. Give us your view of the top 8 SEC players who under performed their recruiting rankings or stars, injuries not held against a player. Who ya got?

 

[Boston Vol]

Kyle Allen would certainly fit the bill. Still has a chance to redeem himself.

 

[Orange_Vol1321]

Deja Vu.

 

[UT Hill Man]

You could make a easy list of 8 underperforming players from our 2014 signing class alone.

I'll nominate 6 of Bama's top 10 signees that year.

We could also go with 2 5 ⭐️ from LSU' class Dupree and Garrett along with 6 of their 4 ⭐️ rated .96 or higher.

 

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

Every player in Texas A&M's class ranked .92 or higher minus Garret qualifies including two 5 ⭐️ in Noil and Allen.

Lmao at auburn and Florida.

Georgia missed on 6 of their top 10.

We didn't have a lot rated .93 or higher but I do get Bates and the two that left in Hendrix and Scott.

So it appears Bama, LSU, Texas A&M, Georgia, Auburn and Florida all did a worse job at evaluating talent than we did.

I doubt it since UT finished behind 3 of them in the final rankings, while beating 1 of them on a hail mary and the other playing in the West.

But, sure.

How do you figure that? What is our record against those teams the last 10 years?

If you mean that Tennessee recruited more 3 star players and had crappy results on the field then yes we evaluated talent better than they did. All that means is that Tennessee knew it was recruiting the table scraps.

I love talking to UGA fans but I always get confused when they talk about "that game we won but should have lost to UT". Apparently the rest of the country calls it the Hobnail Boot game. Who knew

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaan Hootie Jones was ballyhooed like nobody's business back in the day. Good list!

What is question of thread title? Then do research and respond with something pertinent to 2014 classes and the top 8 busts.

Nothing to see here.
