So I have noticed lately that certain colleges are known for having certain position players go to the pro's. Like Iowa and Wisconsin are big with offensive lineman, lately LSU has corners going in. I honestly hardly follow college and I would like to get into it more. I'm just wondering from all of you avid followers of your college, what are some colleges that produce lots of Linebackers and I'm interested in any other position. I heard The Ohio State produces some good linebackers, one being my favorite James Laurinaitis.

Auburn used to always have a top notch running back, but that's sort of faded away, as the entire SEC features some good backs. Just look at what Alabama has done in that position, over the past few years.

Dyer was that next possible great back at AU, but his transfer to Arkansas State sort of messed that up.

Seems like Miami always has a head hunter type safety

Yeah I heard about that. He got suspended for not following some team rules or something and just followed his OC to Arkansas State. Kid is a beast though.

Georgia Tech = WR. Calvin Johnson, Demaryius Thomas and Stephen Hill.

I have no real hard feelings about it, but I think he was more immature than what a lot of us Auburn fans realized. It took a little adversity (the season following a BCS Championship in his freshman season) to really bring out his true colors. Oh well, he may still blow up at Arkansas State and go on to have a good pro career. I would have loved to see what he could do in the new Auburn offensive scheme coming up this year.. back to more traditional power running formations.

Well I know Ben Tate and Cadillac Williams came out of Auburn, and if it wasn't for Foster, Tate would be a starter haha.
