Gattis sucks but these loser Michigan fans that jump on twitter to harrass him because Xavier worthy runs 4.2 at the combine? Quit drinking and go to bed.

Yeah I don’t get that. Sure it would have been a nice addition for you guys, but you’re a run dominant team so it wouldn’t have made a huge difference.
Not to mention Michigan won the title anyway so who cares?

He woulda had more jet sweep rushes than receptions and hit the portal after 2 seasons tops.

I guess it depends on the convo. LSU because of Chase and OBJ at the NFL level?
Or are we talking about what they did in college.

Recently?
LSU (Jefferson & Chase)
Bama (Smith, Waddell, Cooper)
Ohio State (Olave, Wilson, Smith-Njigba)
Clemson (Higgins, Hopkins, Williams)
USC (Amon, Pittman, London, does USC get credit for 1 year Addison?)

LSU doesn’t put a ton in there but when they do they are pretty good so that’s why I have them up there

Was thinking they meant WRU in terms of churning out NFL talent.
In recent years they've produced Jefferson, Chase, OBJ, Landry and Chark with Nabers about to join them

Amari Cooper was drafted in 2015. Deandre Hopkins was drafted in 2013.
Why are you starting in 2020 for LSU, Ohio, and USC?

But doesn't LSU have like 4 good NFL receivers, from 2 specific college teams.

That was somewhat off the top of my head while at work, I’ll sit and actually look here in a bit. What’s your list for rankings/players?

Just from that list (naming guys with some combination of exceptional college and pro careers):
1. Ohio State (Santonio Holmes, Ted Ginn, Mike Thomas, Curtis Samuel, Terry McLaurin, Chris Olave, Garrett Wilson, JSN, MHJ)
2. USC (Keary Colbert, Mike Williams, Dwayne Jarrett, Robert Woods, Marqise Lee, Nelson Agholor, JuJu, Michael Pittman, ARSB, Drake, Addison, Tajh Washington)
3. Alabama (Julio, Cooper, Calvin Ridley, Jaylen Waddle, Devante Smith, Jameson Williams, John Metchie, Henry Ruggs)
4. LSU (Mike Clayton, Dwayne Bowe, OBJ, Jarvis Landry, Justin Jefferson, Jamar Chase)

Can’t argue that. I think you could almost put them in any order really. Did you base yours off sheer numbers in the league or how they do in the league? Could do both I guess. I think production in the league is why so many have LSU at the top

Edited and added names
I didn't use a hard metric tbh. Just, was this person really good in college and/or were they at least good to decent in the NFL. I thought about not naming dwayne jarrett or henry ruggs because they were huge NFL busts but ended up weighting college production more.
Going off production in the league, LSU has 3 elite guys, but where I struggle with that is they're all recent and two of them are basically from the 17-18 college recruiting classes. Alabama has the same problem with all of their notable players coming from 2017-2018 classes.
While schools like Ohio State, USC, and Miami have been doing it for decades.

Been higher on JJ than most but damn his team have really been earning their cheque this pre-draft season
Flipside of that point, imagine Daniels playing behind that OLine,those RB's with that defense...

He would have thrown for far fewer yards and not won the Heisman.

Louis Riddick said at the combine he’s hearing top 5 hype with JJ which seems ridiculous to me even as a Michigan fan, but I don’t think JJ > Daniels as a prospect is a crazy take.
Daniels is two years older and there should be serious question marks about his ability to hold up physically at the next level with his playing style.
Personally I’m not a huge fan of either and would have Penix as my QB3.
