Not One proCane named to ESPN's List of College Greats that Didn't Make it in the NFL

NFLU2009
ESPN ranked their top 50 college football greats that never made an impact in the NFL. You’ll find plenty of Seminoles, Gators, Trojans, Sooner and Irish on this list, but you will not, I repeat, you will not find not even one proCane. Enough said.

Here is ESPN’s introduction to the piece and click below to see the full rankings:

Heisman Trophy winners. All-Americans. Hall of Famers. Collectively, they were some of the greatest players in college football history. During their careers, they led their teams to titles, and had nicknames like "Mr. Inside," "Rocket" and the "Boz." They were the real big men on campus.
But once the marching bands and pep rallies stopped, they barely made a ripple in pro football. Because of injuries, military commitments and other career decisions, many of the sport's legends never made an impact in the NFL.

Once the head of the class in college football, they can simply be known for what they did on Saturdays. -- Mark Schlabach
