DeLuca1967 Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 I wasn't being sarcastic at all.....thanks for the info. If I now highlight the 'successes' on the list.....we find that out of the 12 BIG school QBs drafted in the top 5 in the years 1987-2003, 6 succeeded...or 50%. Out of the 5 non-BIG school QBs only 1 succeeded....or 20%.I think this information backs up your theory quite soundly that QBs drafted high from BIG schools have a better chance of succeeding in the NFL than non-BiG schools. If you can be bothered.....could you(or anyone) give me a list of the BIG schools.....since I'm now adopting your theory I'd like know more about it. Thanks.

ganesh Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 Kerry Collins Penn State B 830210[/snapback] I would consider Collins to be a successful QB too...He took the Panthers to the NFC championship game in his 2nd year as starter....and then took the Giants to the Super bowl under Fassel.

That skews the odds even more in favour of the BIG school QBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
