Sorry if that's old but I just found it...show's how much their stars out of hs really mean...of the top 10 draft picks, there were only two 5stars
taken...also there were 7 two star players taken in the first round and there were two players in the first round who weren't even ranked out of hs...

Problem is there are so few 5 stars out of high school that it is not really a valid comparison. The percentage of 5 stars that make it to the first round is
probably as good or better than that of the 4 and 3 stars it is just there are so many more of them to start with. IF they compared it by percentages instead
of total numbers I think it would be more valid.

The percentage of players that play football under CTT that are NFL draft selections is greater than the percentage of 5 stars that are NFL draft selections.

sometimes a player is as good as he will ever be in high school. Sometimes a player is as good as he will ever be in college. Then players like Joe Horn come
around and emerge against the best competition out of Junior college. The 1st round of the NFL draft is overatted IMO.

We have sent more players to the NFL then what $puat has done. So if any high school or juco player wants to ever play in the pros, come sign with Auburn.

I believe that is because Tuberville gets the most out of his players and develops them into NFL prospects...
