It isn't necessarily the best "statistical" player...there are many factors, statistics being one of them. press coverage during the year, team he plays for (and its success), and, this player gets VOTED as the best player in the nation...the process is very subjective.
Bottom line, as the examples you have cited prove. the best college player in the nation does not equate to a top-5 pick in the draft.
However, it isn't all as bad as it appears...for every Torreta and White, there are the OJ's, the Marcus Allen's, the Mike Garrett's. All top notch professionals.
:yeahthat:
If it was best statistical player, Brennan would have won it by a landslide, but he wasn't even invited to the awards show.
