UT players never go to jail, they just have their cases quietly disappear.

I don't know that I agree that he is even a great football player.

Had his own website in high school, claiming he was the greatest high school player in the world.

Then, came out and said he was going to take Rohan Davey's starting job as a true freshman.

Besides, he was the guy I went to everytime I needed some counterfeit money.

actually the kid had an incredible QB rating of 175 last year, hit on about 70% of his passes and played a crucial role in winning a national championship. Hardly the most overrated player ever. This has more to do with "player stacking" at Big Time powerhouses. Is he a failure because he played behind the No. 1 QB in the Nation a few years ago. While not as highly recruited as Perrilloux, Flynn was a 4 Star QB rated the No. 16 QB in the Country and a Senior. This is one of the biggest fraud in arguing against Rivals ratings. At schools like UT and LSU sometimes 4 and even 5 stars play behind 4 and 5 stars. Doesn't mean he wouldn't be a huge success if given the opportunity either at LSU or another school. In fact, all evidence suggests the kid can play at a Championship level. As for off the field problems I don't think that can be blamed on a recruiting service. Has Perrilloux really done anything worse than a lot of kids our resident June Jones has been willing to overlook on numerous occassions.
