@slimtuh6845 Nah, your numbers are way off it's less then 30 percent! But it would be great if it would be legalized as it's a petty crime messing up lives at the moment.
Just wanted to add to the Demetris Summers' part. He never truly played for Spurrier. He played for Holtz those two years and he got kicked off the team before playing for Spurrier.
Might as well make this a mini-series and do the No 1 WR then the No 1 Tight End, the No 1 Offensive Lineman, etc....Then start doing the defensive positions...Very enjoyable stuff and i really appreciate it...I definitely subscribed and look forward to your next video.
Trey Sanders missed his freshman season due to an almost career ending injury that he sustained during a horrific car wreck. His 2nd season was basically his first season as a college running back and you're already writing him off...? Come on, at least give him 2 full seasons under his belt before you cast him aside. Like you said before, you have to be patient and wait your turn when a player comes to Alabama
He missed his freshman year with a foot injury he suffered in summer or fall camp, the hip injury from the car wreck came in his 2nd season this past year was his 3rd season
@@jalontalton402 all that is correct but this past year was his first full season. At least give him 2 seasons before people make up their decision about a player. That's all I'm saying. I completely forgot about the foot injury. For some reason, I only remembered the car wreck that almost ended his career. If anything, give him props for coming back like he did.
@@Antbeast23 after his first full season as a backup (which was half the season due to injuries), I'd say he did pretty good. Now what will this year and next year look like, and that will tell you if a player is going to pan out or not
played 3 years with jonathan stewart at timberline high school in lacey. one game his sophomore year he had 422 yards with 7 tds against centralia. damn near every game his junior year he got pulled at half time cause he would have 250 yards on like 12 carries so he easily could have ran for 400 plus a game.

I think that it's actually counter-productive to 'peak out' in high school and be a 4-5 star recruit. First, because there is a lot of pressure to put you in as a Starter too soon, which many Freshmen aren't mentally, psychologically or emotionally ready to handle. And Second, your body is still maturing and too much physical impact could lead a career ending injury, I don't think that MOST college football players should become full time Starters before their 3rd year (redshirt Sophomore). By then, they are 20-21 and they are reaching their 'Man Strength'. I like to compare two famous Football players - Brian Bosworth and Clay Matthews. Bosworth was a fulltime Starter by his 2nd (redshirt Freshman) year and, while he had a great college career, he was a Wreck by the time he got to the NFL. He only had one good year as a Starter and then retired after his 3rd year, with a ruined body. Clay Matthews was a skinny unrecruited 'Walk On' to USC, played Scout Team and Special Teams until his 5th year (redshirt Senior), when the coaches put him into the starting line-up as a hybrid Defensive End-Outside Linebacker (USC's Elephant position) and tore through the PAC-12, having a tremendous year. He was also training his ass off for 4 years to build himself up from 210 to over 240 lbs. Yes, I think's it's possible to do it drug-free - especially, when your Dad, Uncle and Grand-Dad were all NFL Players, so the genetics were there. Anyway, after Clay Matthews great final year in College, he gets drafted in the 1st round by the Green Bay Packers and has a fantastic NFL Career - in large part, because he came out of college at full strength and injury-free. Too much, too soon often RUINS potentially Great Players.
Yeah, I think you're on to something here about this. It's the whole reason why redshirting players exists in the first place. There is a huge difference in size, strength, conditioning, and mental fortitude between a true freshman and a 5th year senior. Some guys just aren't ready yet to make the jump from HS to college immediately since their bodies are still growing and need time to bulk up more. Not everyone can be like Adrian Peterson who can play as a true freshman and immediately dominate at the college level.
You got it flipped, youre using survivorship bias. Most guys who dont start til late in their college careers dont make it in the league. You need experience to get better, sitting on the bench for 3 yrs doesnt help develop players.
@@ChillConservative2k15 It depends on the position played - a QB that's been a started for most of the NCAA career is a positive, maybe also Wide Receivers and Cornerbacks - but, for the high physical contact/impact players (Linemen, Linebackers, Safeties) it may not be an advantage is helping them reach the NFL. The 'wear and tear' and injuries from being a Starter at a high D1 level is often counter-productive. Their bodies are often badly damaged with chronic injuries before they can even make it to the NFL Draft.
He was a monster after the ACL tears. He’d be near the record rn if the injuries and getting suspended for disciplining his kid didn’t set him back 3+ years
You did not have Zamir White's stats from this past season. He had 856 yards with 11 touchdowns and Georgia plays 2-3 running backs every game and it works. He was a great running back for the Dawgs.
I know a guy that got into a road rage incident. The 2 parties pulled onto the shoulder of the road, and Billy Bada$$ decided to pull a pipe on the other driver. He f@#ked around and found out. That driver he pulled pipe on was packing a hand cannon. Billy Bada$$ was laid up in the hospital for a long time. He was also paralyzed from the waist down. I want to say after 15 years of rolling around in a wheelchair, he finally was able to walk again.
So I watched your QB vid. & you’re very accurate with your videos. I enjoyed the 1st video & im enjoying this one now. I subscribed & I’ll keep watching as you post. You are doing great with all that being said. Thanks for the great history on these players
@MattBeGreat , when you got to #21 Treveyon Henderson, you said you believe that was the first and only tOSU. Contrary to your belief, there was Bennie Wells at the 14:30 mark. Interesting video. Thank you for keeping it concise.
The random highschool highlights of Shaqaun, Derrick Henry and Leonard fournette throughout the whole video while speaking on other players threw me off and was confusing. And not remembering athletes already covered in the video when speaking on athletes later in the video was definitely not good
Stewart and Deangelo Williams formed a pretty solid 1 2 punch in that Carolina backfield for quite a while. Carolina had some ballers back then, Steve Smith, Delhomme had some solid years then Cam Newton came along. That was a solid squad back in the day
This guy said first dude had 600 yards & 4 yards a carry is bad LMAOOOOO Those stats sound like an option 2 or 3 running back, either way, 4 yards a carry is a great stat line. He then moved to Kevin Jones and neglected that he had the almost same production level each year. The only thing that changed was his carries went down, but his TD's went up. This is a pretty bad analysis, especially for the running back position. Dope video concept & we can tell you worked hard on it, but you gotta learn the game if you're gonna breakdown stats.
The guy who killed Joe McKnight was a racist and Joe McKnight was trying to tell him that it wasn’t that serious and begged for his life when he saw the guy had the gun. R.I.P. Joe McKinight
34:10 As our friend Matt here has decided to be a salty Bama fan and use the time he should be discussing Zamir White’s career bitching about how Kirby beat Bama’s ass last year in the National Championship Game I think I’ll take over telling you all about Zamir White’s career! Zamir White was the number 1 running back in the 2018 class after putting together a absolutely dominate high school career where he went over 7,000 yards total and in his final season went over 2,000 yards and over 14 yards a carry!!! Like many running backs his issues were tied to his health, during the high school playoffs he tore his right ACL and during a scrimmage game not even a full year removed he tore his OTHER ACL. Despite this he was able to be a role player in 2019 behind DeAndre Swift and Brian Herrien before taking over as one of the primary backs complimenting James Cook in 2020 and 2021. His stats have improved every year as he removes himself from the ACL tears and he finished his final year with 856 yards and averaging 5.1 yards a carry and with a win over Alabama 33-18 to bring Georgia it’s first national championship since 1980! He was recently drafted in the 4th round with the 122nd pick of the NFL draft to the Oakland Raiders where he has a chance to really explode as he continues to remove himself from those ACL tears and hopefully have a great NFL Career! P.S. Kirby has had several running backs that have gone 1000+ yards and has put several running backs into the NFL such as Sony Michel, Nick Chubb, and previously mentioned DeAndre Swift. Cry some more Matt 🧂🧂🧂
Marcus Lattimore wasn't the best running back coming out of highschool? Man he was a beast at South Carolina! If he never had that nasty injury in college I honestly think he would have had a great NFL career... What running back was ranked ahead of him in highschool??
Only note I have for future videos is even if it’s a well known guy like AP just tell us the stats real quick then move on. I know I could look them up but woulda been nice to be included in the video. But anyway great vid, I like the QB one too 👍🏻
Some of these guys played in small schools and dominated in high school because they were bigger, faster, stronger and just better than the kids they played against.
PLEASE do a video on Demetris Summers. I went to his high-school and also South Carolina. I pretty much know the story, but it's always fun to hear more.
Two lists I'd like to see are #1 CBs and #1 overall players. #1 overall players would be interesting, because I noticed the two guys on the RB list who were #1 overall went on to be great NFL players. CBs would be interesting, because so many guys at that position go from small school CB to undrafted CB to NFL star CB.
Matt, you keep saying you will never understand about having all the talent but the person is always getting in their own way. Picture this, there is a hole in the back yard. You have had that hole since you can remember. You desire to fill that hole but you chose to fill it with grass clippings instead of soil and cover plant the grass seed over so the hole does not come back. Every few weeks or so you fill that hole with grass clippings until one day you fall In that hole. Now that hole has you and two options the easy one to just get out and fill with grass or slowly work yourself out filling the hole with soil until you are out and plant the seeds to grow over the hole and it is there but it cannot trap you. With most of these people depression, ego, drugs any thing can cause the hole to be there (and get bigger) until one day all you see is that hole. Defeat is easy and the hardest thing in the world but once you make that decision to fill the hole with anything but soil your downfall is coming. Life is hard and for poor, uneducated, addicted, childhood trauma or any combination can drive to not get up in the morning, not put that extra work and or ride out what you can until you are a shell of your former self. People go though all this and at 16-22 year of age you make bad decisions when your not guided or told no. The exception is the guy who comes from nothing and rises above to succeed.
I wanna see Matt high school stats the way he be talking on here.. Student/athlete is one on the hardest thing to do. Especially if u are less fortunate.. anyone with a brain knows most college students are broke..
It’s crazy how many of these athletes have talents given to them by God that a lot of us only dream of having and some can’t stop acting stupid long enough to get a free education possibly even a pro career out of it.
The thing about Bijan is he's going to be great because he's different. Talent wise, he's definitely not the best player on this list, probably not even top 5 or maybe even top 10. However, what he has is character. He will stay on the field because he's a great guy and won't get into trouble. Probably the nicest guy I've ever met
The video neglected to mention that Zamir "Zeus" White had two major knee injuries before his career started at UGA. Kirby had the luxury of having 4 really good backs the past couple of years. He did all his RBs a favor by not over using them. They all got a lot of game time. I don't see why someone would off handily dismiss Kirby after he just won the National Championship.
@@ericpackers1700 he honestly just haven't got the QB situation right. Othet than that he has gotten the most out of the team. Won a title with a limited QB.
Damnn Damien Harris averaged over 7 YPC at Bama twice!? That's damn near a first down every carry. And they were both on over 1,000 yard seasons it's not like his YPC was so high because he only had 30 carries that season🤯
Jonathan Stewart was a monster in some games. Remember, Cam and DeAngelo was there, he was a fifth option and still balled out. He could have been a number one in most traditional teams and if the NFL still uses Fullbacks he would have been amazing his quads were monsters. Oh, and they had the great Greg Olsen.
Most of these guys putting up video game numbers in high school are D1 talent playing in the lower/lowest levels of high school athletics. Meaning, they are playing against 8th and 9th graders and inferior athletes, as opposed to playing high level high school, meaning mostly seniors and juniors, with several collegiate athletes on both sides of the ball. Just like Arch Manning. Let's see if he makes it against real competition.
Johnathan grey was actually really good best highschool rb ever and it wasn’t that he isn’t good enough to play college he suffered alot of injuries I think you should do a vid on him crazy and sad story
This reminds me of Marcus Lattimore. Man even tho he wasn’t on this list he was a top recruited player and unlike Micheal Dyer he was an excellent dude on and off the field. Sad to see injuries take out athletes who actually wanted to change their lives and those around them and go make it big
Adrian Peterson put up exactly one season that would be considered "legendary" with 1900 yds, and then his numbers decreased each year to 1100 and then 1000 after due to injuries. But dude is a machine and nothing but respect for the guy.
I’m going to be real with u like 75/80% of athletes smoke cannabis
75/80% of the US itself.... What's your analysis on that?! 😂
@slimtuh6845 Nah, your numbers are way off it's less then 30 percent! But it would be great if it would be legalized as it's a petty crime messing up lives at the moment.
I played a sport at college most of us smoke a few didn’t smoke, some more occasionally. But most had indulged at some point.
“Ppl”
@brentmichael4770 ...that's an inaccurate statistic. It's definitely closer to 75 - 80%, then 30%.
Just wanted to add to the Demetris Summers' part. He never truly played for Spurrier. He played for Holtz those two years and he got kicked off the team before playing for Spurrier.

Defeat is easy and the hardest thing in the world but once you make that decision to fill the hole with anything but soil your downfall is coming. Life is hard and for poor, uneducated, addicted, childhood trauma or any combination can drive to not get up in the morning, not put that extra work and or ride out what you can until you are a shell of your former self. People go though all this and at 16-22 year of age you make bad decisions when your not guided or told no. The exception is the guy who comes from nothing and rises above to succeed.
You should do a video on Cadillac Williams and Ronnie Brown. That would be an awesome video.
War eagle Auburn
I wanna see Matt high school stats the way he be talking on here.. Student/athlete is one on the hardest thing to do. Especially if u are less fortunate.. anyone with a brain knows most college students are broke..
A Bama fan bashing Michael Dyer…imagine that.
Question - why are you showing Derrick Henry highlights when talking about Lorenzo Booker LOL
Exactly. That is lazy video editing
We need top long snappers from 2000-2022
😁😁
It’s crazy how many of these athletes have talents given to them by God that a lot of us only dream of having and some can’t stop acting stupid long enough to get a free education possibly even a pro career out of it.
The thing about Bijan is he's going to be great because he's different. Talent wise, he's definitely not the best player on this list, probably not even top 5 or maybe even top 10. However, what he has is character. He will stay on the field because he's a great guy and won't get into trouble. Probably the nicest guy I've ever met
Top LBs would be kool. Even if it was 2 different vids, like inside & outside LBs
Subbed! Can’t wait for the WRs video
Absolutely love these videos. If you can keep them up!
am I tripping or is there a bunch of random shorts of derrick henry in this
Good Vid! These random highlights throwing me off though lol
Jones balled out at Tech but that's cuz VICK helped out.
High school ain't college and if you're expecting to be that much better than everybody else like high school you you're in for a rude awakening.
Booker was a Man out there..... No matter what level you play at almost 3,000 yards. Good gawd!
Zamir White doesn’t still play for Georgia, also the whole Kirby offensive narrative is tired and not true at this point.
Haters gonna hate
Kirby has under achieved with offensive talent but had dominant defense last year
The video neglected to mention that Zamir "Zeus" White had two major knee injuries before his career started at UGA. Kirby had the luxury of having 4 really good backs the past couple of years. He did all his RBs a favor by not over using them. They all got a lot of game time. I don't see why someone would off handily dismiss Kirby after he just won the National Championship.
@@ericpackers1700 he honestly just haven't got the QB situation right. Othet than that he has gotten the most out of the team. Won a title with a limited QB.
These videos are so good!
Show the actual tape of the players you’re talking about PLEASEEEEEE use there college tape pictures or something
Yeah that killed the video
I agree. That made me not like the video. Great information but trash video footage.
Officially subscribed! Thanks for the great content!
Damnn Damien Harris averaged over 7 YPC at Bama twice!? That's damn near a first down every carry. And they were both on over 1,000 yard seasons it's not like his YPC was so high because he only had 30 carries that season🤯
Then you used Derrick Henry highlights for 75% of the video like what?😂
Yep lazy editing
Damn.... real work, Matt!!!
Great video I like the way u persent them. Great job and thank u this was the first video I have seen of yours so I did subscribe to u.
Jonathan Stewart was a monster in some games. Remember, Cam and DeAngelo was there, he was a fifth option and still balled out. He could have been a number one in most traditional teams and if the NFL still uses Fullbacks he would have been amazing his quads were monsters. Oh, and they had the great Greg Olsen.
Most of these guys putting up video game numbers in high school are D1 talent playing in the lower/lowest levels of high school athletics. Meaning, they are playing against 8th and 9th graders and inferior athletes, as opposed to playing high level high school, meaning mostly seniors and juniors, with several collegiate athletes on both sides of the ball. Just like Arch Manning. Let's see if he makes it against real competition.
Love your videos. Keep up the good work
Appreciate your hard work Matt!
Spurrier was not at SC in 2003 or 2004. Those were Lou Holtz teams. Spurrier started at SC in 2005.
Zamir white was splitting carriers with James cook. Munken was doing the offense. And they won a national title lol
Johnathan grey was actually really good best highschool rb ever and it wasn’t that he isn’t good enough to play college he suffered alot of injuries I think you should do a vid on him crazy and sad story
Hope u do every position like this!
This reminds me of Marcus Lattimore. Man even tho he wasn’t on this list he was a top recruited player and unlike Micheal Dyer he was an excellent dude on and off the field. Sad to see injuries take out athletes who actually wanted to change their lives and those around them and go make it big
I’m a buckeyes fan and treyveyon Henderson will be an absolute stud.

Adrian Peterson put up exactly one season that would be considered "legendary" with 1900 yds, and then his numbers decreased each year to 1100 and then 1000 after due to injuries. But dude is a machine and nothing but respect for the guy.
I love your video thanks for what u do
