TD Never ever put in any work at UGA like he did at Denver, its almost hard to believe. (shout outs to DLO and Ray Goff )

He was decent at WR and dabbled in too many other positions. I didnt see his career turning out the way it did.

I figured he would be too small to get his shots up, but dude got a nice game

Thought he would be decent but after seeing him choke in the biggames yr after yr at Tennessee I never saw this coming.

I just didnt see it from Ronnie at Arkansas, figured he'd be just an athlete on the basketball court ...


Add Your Errors in Judgement ...
 
Who knew he was going to be THIS good?

If you saw this guy play at OSU, then you would be just as shocked to know he made the Pro Bowl

And by far, by far the guy that suprised me the most in a good way, Clinton Portis. I had no idea he would be a great back in the NFL. He was a decent backat the U and I figured a product of the system. I was wrong.
 
I didn't think he'd ever be as good as he was 01..... I thought he'd be another Harold Miner...

I didn't even think Josh Boone would make it to the league.
 
I didnt think larry johnson would be good. on a side note my old coach use to coach urlacher at new mexico. He said he and other coaches didnt think urlacherwas going to be as good as he is.
 
Duhon was first person that came to mind

Chris Paul ........

You get the feeling that a lot of dudes who came through UGA in the 90s didn't really show out like they could have?

i kinda think all UofL players are going to be garbage though. buti've changed my mind with Brohm and Harry Douglas.

and i wouldn't say i thought these guys would be garbage, just never thought they'd be as good as they are for some reason:

as far as Tayshaun goes, honestly, i always thought he'd be a better pro than he was a college player due to his versatility.
 
Antawn Jamison and Elton Brand. I thought both were products of UNC and Duke hype. I thought they wouldn't have a true position in the pros due to theirsizes and lack of shooting ablility outside of the paint. Both have proven me wrong and had very good careers and Jamison is even a pretty good outside shooternow. Definately didn't see these 2 panning out...
 
how is royel Ivey still in the league. dude was trash in HS and College.
 
complete opposite of the thread, but i thought JJ Redick would be good in the league but hes complete trash!
 
Andre Miller
Gilbert Arenas
Caron Butler
Rip Hamilton
C Billups
Tyronn Lue (Never thought he'd still be in the L)
ditto for Tinsely
Artest (one of my favorite players. didnt the he'd pan out tho.)
J O'Neal
Travis Outlaw
Tony Parker

Jermaine never went to College and Tony didn't play in the states, are you basing it off of you thinking they were scrubs while in the league and theyproved you wrong?...
