If you're a recruiting and college football fan, some of these names will be a blast from the past. This is a great read and kinda brings home of the point of how much of a crapshoot recruiting is. GT's 2007 recruiting class is often cited around here for various reasons, one of which is the some of the elite talent we were able to bring in. 2 names from that class make this list:

76. Derrick Morgan, DE
Commitment: Georgia Tech
The ACC's defensive player of the year in 2009, Morgan left school a year early and was the Titans' first-round pick in 2010. He has been a regular starter there in 91 games.
(Derrick makes another appearance on the list if you read Willy Korn's update)

84. Morgan Burnett, DB
Commitment: Georgia Tech
Burnett left school a year early and was drafted in the third round in 2010 by the Packers. He has appeared in 90 NFL games and has been a regular starter for Green Bay.
