Yeah he was out of position here and there but wouldn't you consider this a learning year since it was his only year? I think if he hadn't got into trouble, he wouldn't be on your overrated list.
Yes, I agree. I was very excited to see what Thurman could do once he got a better handle on the mental part of the game. He had those incredible natural insticts that you can't teach. I think he would have been a great NFL player.
But I also predicted he would never get his head together. I am usually one of the guys preaching about how we can't hold a little trouble in college against a potential draft pick. But Odell was out of control. he messed up so many times at Georgia that he was kicked off the team for an entire year, and when they finally did let him back he got kicked off again. he was one of those that just couldn't get it.
