    For me, it would be Mike Lustyk, Kevin Ware and James Johnson.

    Lustyk...great call Derek. Only 3 guys here even followed recruiting then...steel2, Pup and you. I knew the 1st series vs Nebraska lustyk was a turd...and we were really going to miss #90. Lustyk was equivilent of a high 4-star cant miss prospect. So too was Izbiki. Pups philosophy has always been to steer queer of kingco... yeah u get an Ahmed type once every 10 years...stick to ghetto and gangster schools. Bellevue was gang wannabe's at least

    But Derek, kevin ware had a fine career. Plus he blocked

    Our 1992 class completely fucked our program. We had so many talented guys in that class... and in the end it was fucking Dave Janoski who was left standing. Look at the Jesse Callier rankings vs. (retro) star-ratings for that class... it hurts.

    QB Ted Stark (4* - JC1)
    RB Toby Brookins (4* - JC1)
    WR Jason Shelley (5* - JC1)
    WR Theron Hill (4* - JC1)
    WR Dave fucking Janoski (3* - JC3)
    OL Joe Wells (4* - JC1 - transferred to fucking Oregon)
    OL Lynn Johnson (3* - JC3 - he sucked, tho)
    OL Brad Brozaitis (4* - JC1)
    OL Bob Sapp (4* - JC4)
    DL David Richie (3* - JC3/4)
    BUCK Hernan Santiago (3* - JC1)
    BUCK Curtis Bogan (4* - JC1)
    LB Ink Aleaga (4* - JC4)
    DB Lawyer Milloy (4* - JC5)

    Jesus fucking Christ. That class still breaks my heart. It was small because the NCAA reduced football schollies from 95 to 85, so we were downsizing. We had just won the Natty and most of these guys were big time. Biggest misses were Amani Toomer and Rashaan Salaam. Ugh.

    Fuck that UW Cop who chased down Jason Shelly and got him booted from the team.
    Still some solids in that class. Bob Sap was a beast at pulling guard. Ink was very good. And Lawyer redefined the position
    Salaam wasnt a miss. No idea how he won heisman. He was worst TB to ever win award (isnt close). Torretta of tailbacks. His nfl failure proves my point

    Ben Lindsey. Thought for sure he’d be the next Empterman but chose to do track for some fucktarded reason. I’m sure he’s lighting his cigars with $100s from all the $$$ he made throwing the discus.

    Dennis is right. The 92 class looked like the continuation of a dynasty.

    It wasn't

    The Wonder Twins were a particular disappointment

    Hilary Butler too

    Ben Lindsay was a stud. He took a shit in some woods around Alderwood in the late 90's and it grew up to be Andrew Basham.

    Donnie Mateaki.

    This would be mine too. The classic 5-star, look-like-a-Greek-God profile pic on TBS.com but ended up doing exactly jack shit. I fell hard for it like the doog that I am.

    Seriously, I know the big time TBSers on here will probably disagree with me but when it comes to personnel, a third of it is the talent you sign, a third of it is developing it, and another third of it is retaining it.
