Hooked on Huskers Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 P. Schrager @PSchrags 42s Texas DE Jackson Jeffcoat was the nationally number 1 rated high school recruit a few years back. Still undrafted and on the board. As of Round 7 - Pick 35, Texass got ZERO draftees !!!! Quote Link to comment

Hooked on Huskers Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Texas 0 draft picks. Poor Mack Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Fake Bo Pelini @FauxPelini · 15h Schools with as many draft picks as Texas: Hogwarts, Degrassi Jr. High, Creighton, any school of fish, Fame, University of Phoenix, Kansas 3 Quote Link to comment
mrandyk Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Per ESPN, Liberty and Lindenwood have each had a player selected. Texas has not. Add Bloomsberg, Furman and Coastal Carolina to the list. You can also add Saginaw Valley State and McGill, which isn't even an American institution. Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I would have rather had defense too, but I still liked the pick. Turns out they were set to draft Ryan Shazier in the first, but the Steelers stole him. Quote Link to comment
Notre Dame Joe Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 ND now holds the current streak of consecutive years with players drafted, since 1937. Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I just heard on the radio that there were 100 underclassmen who declared for the draft and 62 were drafted. The guy on the radio claimed that as evidence that the kids are getting good advice. REALLY?Would you say that? I would say that if 38% of them didn't even get drafted that this is a pretty piss poor stat when you think those kids could have gone back to school for another year, worked longer towards their diploma while on scholarship and become better football players at the same time.

Absolutely. He talked to the agents that gave them the advice and they were 100% certain it was good. Quote Link to comment

Plus, I would like to know how many kids were told they would be in the first few rounds so they made the decision based on that when they were actually drafted late and could have greatly increased their earning and signing bonus by staying one more year.
