Here is my final word on this, then I am moving on.
Some people act like Hunt came here not knowing how to put on a football helmet and tried to head the football over the goal post. the fact was that he was a 3 year starter who was first team all-conference and MVP of a bowl game. Pretty much every major draft exper had him ranked in the 2nd-3rd round range. the Bengals did not reach to take him.
Hunt did not work out, but we had another 2nd round pick who was the Big Ten Defensive lineman of the year and a Consensus All-American, but Devon Still did not work out either. Does that mean we should make fun of the Bengals for drafting him in the second round?
In 2015 there were players from Samford (not Stanford) and Hobart college taken in the first two rounds. In 2014 The Raiders got a pretty good player (Khalil Mack) from Buffalo and there were also players from Northern Illinois, Fresno State, Nevada, BYU, and Eastern Illinois taken in the first two rounds. In 2013 three of the first 12 picks in the draft came from Central Michigan, BYU, and Houston. The first two round also included guys from Florida International, San Diego State, Southern Miss, SMU, Rice, Marshall, and SE Louisiana.
