Class of 2011, where are they now?

Per the ESPN top 200 from 2011:
#9 Tony Steward, LB - Limited Impact, 2013 break out?
#14 Charone Peake, WR - Limited Impact, 2013 break out?
#32 Stephone Anthony, LB - Limited Impact, 2013 break out?
#39 Sammy Watkins, WR - Stud, but I do remember him in a preseason interview saying "I don't understand why people talk about sophomore slumps"
#72 Mike Bellamy, RB - Gone. He did say he would break all of CJ Spiller's records. I felt like that was the kiss of death.
#113 Lateek Townsend, LB - Gone. Transferred to where?
#149 Spencer Region, OG - no one talks about the o-line
#161 Cortez Davis, S - Gone. Transferred to where?
That's 3 of 8 gone, and really only 1 of 8 that has made an impact. 2013 will be their break out year!!

overrated. Also from that class:
Adam Humphries-very solid contributor
Martavis Bryant-projected 2013 starter
Sam Cooper-projected 2013 starter
Grady Jarrett-starter
Corey Crawford-starter
Robert Smith-possible starter
Cole Stoudt-solid backup QB
Ryan Norton-projected starter
Shaq Anthony, Eric McClain, Joe Gore-solid depth/possible starters

You can't call kids busts or "limited impacts" when they've only played 2 years...

Remember when you didn't know who Clemson had signed until Athlon's and Street and Smith came out during the summer before the season started.
A lot of talking heads and mouth breathers have made a good living with a market that don't really matter.

In Defense of Sammy

Its one heck of a Sophomore Slump when you have nearly 800 yards receiving in pretty much 10 games.
