Overall - Many followers of

recruiting, including myself, expected Flowers to develop into a

big-time player at Texas, but that never really happened. A solid

player throughout most of his career, but the emergence of younger

receivers from the 2000 recruiting class kept Flowers from ever earning a starting position.

undrafted free agent and saw limited action as a reserve.

Overall - There have not been many players that

have come out of this state in the last decade that have come close to

having the sheer physical ability that Gay possessed. Although he did

make it into Baylor academically, Gay never made it on the field for

the Bears and ended up transferring to a junior college and saw some

action in the CFL. Made the Cleveland Browns roster in 2001 as an

undrafted free agent, but didn't last long.

2000/01 - No longer playing football.

Overall - Ambres never made it to

A&M due to a multi-million dollar deal that he signed with the

receptions for 310 yards and two touchdowns.

during his senior season.

yards in two games before suffering a season ending injury at Wyoming.
