So, with the recruiting cycle in full swing, always looking for your thoughts conversations on topics.
I am thinking of which player was the biggest steal. Not in the sense of swiped from another team, but was considerably undervalued and ended up being an elite player. (From my perspective, I am only going with players who signed a NLI not walk-ons; and I am looking at the Rivlas era, but feel free to use any criteria you want).
I am going with a tie on my choice for biggest steal:
1) Max Unger: A former two start and here are his credentials
