So apparently, this has occurred in years past?

Simpson was wildly successful at Morgan State.  

Didn't Simpson get to the NFL, playing for the Colts, maybe?

Correct.  Was a UDFA...not sure if he ever played a down, but did go to this thing called the "CFL"????

He not only played but actually played for the Colts in their Super Bowl loss. I believe he had 1 TD run for the colts...played in about 9/10 games.

Howard University can pull in a 5 star, nationally ranked #18 player, and the best CBG can do is a measly 4 star, 62nd ranked player? .................. WTF, coach??

 

It's actually a pretty good school. Howard is the top dog when it comes to HBCUs, but more than competes with other Universities nationally. My sister graduated from Howard. They have a lot of high profile alumni. I even met Colin Powell at her graduation. Whether he goes to the league or not, it's still a pretty **** good school. He will be alright. (3-4) years at Howard is still a better  draft pick than getting a kid straight from highschool. I think his pledge is more of a statement than getting out recruited.

This was resolved a year later. Notice how they have Chad Bosman in that picture? I met Colin Powell and he was not even a speaker. The graduation had several celebrities.
