Which program develops the best talent for the NFL?

Which programs best develop elite prospects? A five-year study

A Clear Top Four
Seven of the nine available national championships since 2010 have been claimed by teams within the top four of 247Sports’ Development Rating. Alabama, which DOMINATES five-star development, sits at No. 2, while Clemson and Ohio State follow at third and fourth.

The first team in the rankings might come as a bit of a surprise: Florida!

Those classes, 2010-14, span a full spectrum of eligibility across a five-year period.

Interesting, I guess. Nice that we are still in the headlines. But 2010-2014 are basically all Creyer recruits and some Chump recruits who were still landing some of the elite guys, mostly on our Creyer reputation.

It just doesn't have much to do with what we are doing now with the type of recruits we are landing.

Make sure the 4/5* recruits see this!

Not to mention how many of these guys had to play early out of necessity. It'd be interesting to see how early PT affects development. I'd guess a lot.

There are two ways to take this I guess. One would be like the article says and that Florida's coaches have done a great job developing talent. The other could be that judging by Florida's record and sometime suckatude over the last ten years Florida's coaches didn't know how to use their own player's talents.

Both are true, I think. First, defensive talent came & developed pretty well under Muschamp and Quinn. Individual players can develop aside from the team. There was also a good year there in 2012, that OL had some studs who went on to the NFL.

But the sum was definitely less than the parts for most of that time frame.

Awesome news!

Thanks Jeremy Foley.

So Meyer's last class and all four Muschamp classes... which is almost a eternity to the kids getting out of high school now.

Obviously, we still could get great talent from 2010-2014 despite everyone's opinion our facilities were inadequate. This Graph indicates...We are still The University of Florida and that matters. As the article states in the article, and I quote..."While Florida might not have a national championship to show for it – that program had some messy turns of coaching instability that the other three do not – there’s a reason Dan Mullen found a way to turn the program around so quickly in Year 1. The talent never really went anywhere. Well, except to the league."

The article is about "development", but since that word isn't in your vocabulary, I suppose that I shouldn't be surprised.

So Im guessing you thought Chimp and Butters lost a helluva lot of games bc all that development they did.

Being atop that list, shows UF offers the best chance of putting a player into the NFL.
It is very positively telling that UF tops Bama over the years while Bama had a much higher recruit-class average than we did. = kids, get more bucks for your bang by coming to UF. Make this a horn-toot by our recruiters.
