I am a little suprised not to see Boone mentioned in these list's.

Other than that it's a pretty dead-on list. I'd make an argument for Myron Rolle from FSU for Safety.

Certainly can't ask for better corners than Jenkins & Mickens.

There are a lot of good CB's in the country this year. Eric Berry at Tennessee is a stud. Donovan Warren at TSUN is going to be a good one.

Take out the Buckeyes, and the Big Ten barely makes the list.

I hate to bash the Big Ten but the Buckeyes are way above the competition in the conference this year.

edit: we also have the most All-Americans with 3, sweet.

Not to mention they could realistically add Boone on there to make it 4.
