Boom found it.

Ohio State (go bucks) is number one in number of nfl players produced.

again, avoiding the argument presented...

I went through and examined how the 2001 Miami Hurricane players did in their first seasons in the NFL:

Bryant McKinnie went to the Pro-Bowl
Jeremy Shockey went to the Pro-Bowl
Ed Reed went to the Pro-Bowl
Clinton Portis went to the Pro-Bowl
Andre Johnson went to the Pro-Bowl
Willis McGahee went to the Pro-Bowl
Sean Taylor went to the Pro-Bowl
Kellen Winslow went to the Pro-Bowl
Jonathon Vilma went to the Pro-Bowl
Vince Wilfork went to the Pro-Bowl

That's 10 Pro-Bowlers, not like eventually became Pro-Bowl players, that's were Pro-Bowl players their 1st year in the league. I know you're going to come back with the talent around them and all that, my point is simply, they were good enough to compete and even excel with the big boys from day 1. So add to that:

D.J Williams
Vernon Carey
Jerome McDougle
William Joseph
Andre Williams
Jamaal Green
Matt Walters
Ken Dorsey
Phillip Buchanon
Mike Rumph
Martin Biblia
Najeh Davenport
James Lewis
Daryl Jones
Joaquin Gonzalez

That's an absolutely loaded roster. I think that team could've pulled off an upset vs the worst NFL team of the 2000s...

Months of training with NFL players and being coached for it. Pre-season games. First games of the season to get acclimated before they excelled.

What? I don't even understand why you'd want to have that argument and I'm not going to waste my time researching it. You want to stroke yourself about your school that is fine but I was merely saying that you made a claim that was blatantly wrong and hurts some of your credibility considering it could have been researched in a matter of seconds.

Breakdown of that team:

NFL Caliber QB
4 NFL Caliber HBs, 2 were 1st year Pro-Bowlers
2 NFL Caliber WRs, 1 was a 1st year Pro-Bowler
2 NFL Caliber TEs, both were 1st year Pro-Bowlers
3 NFL Caliber OL

2 NFL Caliber DL, 1 was a 1st year Pro-Bowler
2 NFL Caliber LBs, 1 was a 1st year Pro-Bowler
6 NFL Caliber DBs, 2 were 1st year Pro-Bowlers

That is near a complete NFL Caliber starting Lineup. Now, depth might be a problem, as well as the Lines, but I don't think it's unreasonable to look at that roster and think they might be able to beat some of the worst teams in recent memory...

What? Did you read the things that I wrote at all or did you just hit quote and bait me?

I said that it is a debate for who has produced the best and that is your opinion.

The other is something that can be fact checked and you were proven very much wrong.

pro bowls, all pros and amount of games started could determine the quality of player...and again you avoided the argument I presented, I said best and most nfl players in the league, not amount drafted.

Ohio st produces a lot of draft picks but so so so many are busts

you started debating something else because you know you're wrong

Months of training with NFL players and being coached for it. Pre-season games. First games of the season to get acclimated before they excelled.

I understnad what you're saying, but are you suggesting that those 10 Pro-Bowl players would've been dominated by average to below average NFL players without that one summer of training?

I think they still would've played at a very high level...

I mistook most for most, my bad.

Pro-bowls are fan voted, and amount of games changes incredibly based on position.

I never said from 1992-2011, I said last decade, your reading comprehension needs improvement.

No, but I think the disparity is much smaller than the huge difference between the other 43 and NFL players.

It was the most comprehensible thing to be easily found. Go find something better instead of whining.

like Ohio st players losing their jobs because they suck?

You were wrong, it's ok, no harm done

[valade16]

No, but I think the disparity is much smaller than the huge difference between the other 43 and NFL players.

fair enough. I still maintain that team could upset some of the worst teams of the past decade.

What about the college all stars vs the worst team? They used to have college all stars vs the championship team, the all stars won 9 times, including beating a packers team cowched by lombardi. The nfl championship team won 31 times and tied twice. The last game was in 74, with pittsburg winning 24-0.

[GGGGG-Men]

ugh. Every year this question gets brought up. No f'n way. Alabama would get torched by any NFL team.

Question Gabbert all you want, but after playing in the NFL he'd have no problem reading the 3 or 4 coverages that Bama throws out there.

The strength of an NFL d-line would wreck a college olines protection.

It's just so different. You can't just look at how good a team is in another league and say "well they can compete". How many of those guys will actually be NFL starters? And how long would it take them to get up to speed in the NFL for schemes, coverages, the speed of the NFL, etc.

This is once again just a silly pointless question. Jacksonville's 2nd teamers would beat Alabama by double digits.
