Nope. 75% of them get drafted. 49% go in the first round. Only 18.3% of 5 stars get drafted in the first round for the rest of the schools

I’m with you. I was looking at basically everybody except Bama. Got it.

We are slightly above the national average with 5 stars being drafted in the first round at 22%. Have to also take into account we had horrible coaching for almost the entire stretch. CJH should develop at a much higher rate

I wonder how we would stack up in basketball. On the surface I would think not good as it seems like our 5-star athletes don’t pan out as much as they do for other schools but I bet it’s not as off as it seems.

And most of those were 4 or 5 star players. You never hear about what percentage of their 4 and 5 star players don't make it.

A lot of them wash out of the league too. Being in the correct scheme, natural ability, and work ethic are just as important as development.

I've never understood why 5* want to sit on the bench at Georgia, Alabama, etc

They pay very well.
