These numbers are public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"SEE" USF puts a lot of guys in the NFL ! I know I would use it as a talking point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, my point is there is nothing special about the Power 5 label. It's not an opinion, it's a fact: USF has placed NFL talent better than these programs. USF can and will compete with these schools, regardless of the label people give them and give us. Happy Friday. source Actually, that is an opinion ... See the colon... the fact is that we can place players in the NFL. This can be a recruiting tool and it is statement about our talent. It's not just USF I'm making a statement about. It's the ridiculous notion that a quarter of these "p5" schools are superior in some way. We out attend, out-recruit, and out-draft some of these guys. Some other notable numbers: Cincy: 25 UConn: 23 SDSU: 21 Fresno St: 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all they have 21 where we only have 19. They out attend, out-recruit, and out-draft us. Stats are fun. Like Greg said wait until September.

Instead of "It's not an opinion, it's a fact:", probably should have used "This is not an opinion, it's a fact:" if were going to structure it like that.

Kids want to know a school can be a path to success in the NFL. Especially on defense, USF has established that. Offseason roster numbers aren't as important as having visible players in the league.
