And then how do you rank a kid like Abrams in terms of how his career turned out? I hate to say one of the worst because I loved his game, but man he had the absolute worst luck when it came to his body.From this list the worst top 100 player is either Shaw, DJ Williams or Spears. I don't count transfer 100's like Omar Payne, but he was ranked to high. Kofi was really a top 15 recruit, was well undervalued. Kofi is the most most dominant big man at Illinois and not even close. Adam Miller and Skyy Clark and couple others were ranked to high (Mcbride as well). None were anywhere as good as Ayo. Most top 100 players were good at Illinois.
I also wouldn’t overlook Crandall Head on your list of worst. DJ Williams got a cup of coffee in the NBA.
