and many more selected as un-signed free agents. Maybe we missed some opportunities? Quite a few who played in MS Jucos who ended up transferring much lesser schools than us and are now getting paid to play on Sundays. Interesting list.

In regard to guys from MS actually drafted, we had the top two and then the others are Minshew, who we definitely knew about but didn't really go after (and he likely would have chosen WSU anyway); Buggs, who went to Bama; and then a kid who went to Texas Tech and was taken with almost the last pick in the draft. And there will always be somebody you don't get who does well.

So I think we did pretty darn well. We always have a bunch of undrafted free-agents ourselves, that doesn't really matter to me that much.

Several of those signed to Schools out of HS, then transferred Juco. Those are the ones you want. Couple were known commodities and sign/place guys.
