So at least they got something out of him aside from that one shining moment.     Also I noticed in the "Break Out" season thread several people picked Evans.  If that happens then maybe the Finely pick would have worked out in a round about way.  :)

There was a pre-draft ranking that year that had Ryan Finley as the 31st best player in the draft. May have been ESPN? Anyway that didn’t pan out but I remember being encouraged for a minute.
