Video: Most Overhyped College QB's of All-Time

  • HELLO AGAIN, Guest! We are back, live! We're still doing some troubleshooting and maintenance to fix a few remaining issues but everything looks stable now (except front page which we're working on over next day or two)

    Thanks for your patience and support! MUCH appreciated! --Brett (BamaNation)

    if you see any problems - please post them in the Troubleshooting board!

I got to admit the "Billy Ray" response was a blast from the past that made me laugh. I bet 99% of Bama fans don't even remember him (not 99% of Tidefans).

What in the world ever happened to him???

Blake Barnett was a victim of his dad. IIRC, he tried to leverage CNS and he blew up BB's chance to play at Bama. Enter a guy named Jalen Hurts and it's history.

FWiW, I think BB had some QB talent but parental interference will destroy a potential career.

Transferred to Duke and played a bit... Relatively decent numbers for the era.

He ended up at Duke his last two years as their starter. Wasn’t great but was serviceable by Duke standards back in those days.
 
Thought Arch played pretty darn good for Texas yesterday. I only saw parts ofthe game so I may have missed any miscues he had.
 
I know him…great guy!!! Lives in my hometown.
About as nice a fella you’ll ever meet.
Did he play a year or two under Spurrier when he was at Duke or had Spurrier already left for Florida? I can’t remember.

Ryan Perriloux

The hype around his recruitment was circus-level. LSU “won” his signature, even though he was committed to Texas all the way up until signing day. Suspended multiple times and finally booted by the Hat. Transferred to Jax State(!). Went undrafted. Played in the NFL, CFL, Arena Football League and even a professional league in France that I’ve never heard of.
