Is it possible we have the equivalent of Matt Leinart

Reggie Bush, and Calvin Johnson on the same team?
Matt Leinart's college career he had a passer rating of 159.5 and is 6 ft 5. TL's first season he has a passer rating of 157.2 and is also 6 ft 5.
Reggie Bush's college career he avg'd 7.3/carry (although he was a better receiving and special teams player than ETN) ETN averages 7.8 yds/carry
Calvin Johnson - averaged 16.5 per catch in college, 6 ft 5 Justyn Ross - averaged 21.7 yds per catch, 6 ft 4
Is this going too far?
I feel like this is going too far.

I thought you were GWPTiger® for a second. You may want to change your avatar or you could mistakenly get a bunch of TDs

I get your drift ... and would say Clemson group is better since Calvin Johnson did not play for USC, and as other reply states, Bush struggled and Leinert really struggled in NFL.
Not a cowboys fan, but maybe Aikman, Emmitt and Irvin is closer ... and those guys won three.

What many don't know is Emmitt was told my most major colleges (Bama, Auburn, LSU, FSU) that he was too small and slow to play major college football. Even though he had broken almost all the Florida High School rushing records. He played at a cross town school so I was able to follow him. Even when he left Florida after his Junior year, he had their career rushing record and only played in like 24 games (It took Eric Rhett 4 full years as a starter to break Emmitt's record), he was told that he wasn't fast enough to play in the NFL. He liked proving his doubters wrong. He little brother was thought to be the better athlete of the 2. I don't see anyone telling ETN that he isn't fast enough to play in the NFL. Although, he didn't have that many offers coming out of high school. I can imagine many including his home state team LSU regrets not perusing him more. Go Tigers

For a legitimate comparison, forget what they do in NFL,

just compare with another QB, RB & WR combo from the SAME school. Maybe even throw Higgins in there for a 2nd WR. So, find a COLLEGE team that had a better offensive skill group than TL, ETN, Tee & Ross!
