What does this draft say about the Trojans?

Update:

After the first two moronic answers I am too shocked still to add details.

Update 2:

Winston Justice is another USC player that dropped.

Bush-hard to say if Texans went away from him due to the drama surrounding him.

Leinart-Not sure why he dropped other than little need for quarterback in top 10 (only one other chosen before him).

Justice-Once thought as a top-10 guy drops to 39th due to character.

White-Drops to 45th due to injury/work ethic concerns.

Lutui-Went about right at 42nd but some had him as a first rounder too.

Bing-Most had him late 2nd or at the latest 3rd round but is still on the board.

That being said, there were still seven picks from the school but several have had character concerns raised as it came closer to draft day. What was USC able to do to gloss over some of the deficincies of their players?

    Obviously, the Trojan players were overrated. Reggie Bush went 2nd, Matt Leinart went 10th, and LenDale White went 45th. This shows that teams are finding faults in each player that NFL experts aren't finding. The ignorance of these faults makes each player look like they're amazing. But once teams start pointing out each little fault of each player, the player becomes less likely to be picked high in the draft. Each team's GM must have found something wrong in each player which is why they were picked a lot lower than expected.

    It says that the Trojans put together a great team, and that NFL Teams are idiots for passing on their players. I think that Linart should have been picked #3, and Bush should have been #1. I can see why White fell out of the first round tho.

    Let's see, Bush dropped to second, Leinart dropped to tenth and White dropped out of the first round. It doesn't say much good about them. NFL GM's obviously believe that USC is overhyped.

    It says that the media like before the rose bowl greatly overhyped the Trojans and its players. Greatest Team Ever???? Please!Reggie Bush is Gale Sayers..... Not gonna happen.

    They deserved more than the NFL give them credit for recken Pete made someone made by not going to the NFL to coach I mean look at them young men's records and who they played.
