UConn player goes in 1st round

I guess that goes to show you that just because a college put a player in the pros it does not necessarily mean that college has a good team.

That is obvious. Texas and West Virgina are abysmal and they had players drafted.

As I recall, he had a freak like showing at the combine. I believe he destroyed the record for the standing broad jump, an off the wall vertical jump plus a 4.3 plus 40.

I'm always worried when we draft people from terrible teams. Hopefully he's the opposite of mo claiborne.

What a revelation.... so you're telling me there's more than 1 player on the field?

Right, I remember people used to say June was dong a good job because some players got drafted from SMU when the team's best season was 7 regular season wins and he had more supprt than any other coach since the DP. Anyway, let's hope this kid is not just a workout warrior that does play well as we have seen combine superstars that can't play in then pros.

His broad jump beat the WORLD RECORD at 12 feet 3 inches and he had a 44.5 vertical. He's a Margus Hunt kind of freak

Another player drafted too high simply because of combine numbers.
