Yeah, because as we all know, the success stories in the NFL come from guys who sat the bench and did nothing in college...

Congrats, you can name 3 people out of thousands of NFL players.

Guess what? I can name millions of people to back up my point better...

[IggyWH]

and not only do you name 3 people, you name :

Thurman Thomas - who was a pretty good college RB and could have had even better career numbers if he hadn't split time his junior & senior year with a guy by the name of Barry Sanders, whoever that scrub is

Preist Holmes - Played very little as a freshman and sophomore, as a junior 120 carries 524 yards and 4TDs, senior year had 59 carries for 324 yards with 13 TDs and only played a little after a torn ACL kept him out a year. They also had RIcky Williams as a Sophomore at this time. To say he was bad in college is far from the truth.

TD - Carrier 372 carries for 1919 yards with 16TDs. That average is SICK! Add in the fact that he only had 53 carries his sophomore year because he transfered to Georgia. He backed up some guy by the name of Garrison Hearst in '92... another guy you might have heard of. Hampered by injury all of his senior season. Yet another guy to say that he was bad in college is far from the truth.

We're talking NC here as in Tarheels, not NC State.

Also, I'm not sure I got Parker's college stats completely correct. Here's his college profile on ESPN.com :

But then here's yearly stats on NC football on ESPN.com :
