I mean, Stepherson didn't exactly stick either.
Yeah, I meant it was a shame about both of them lol.

Why was Guyton kicked out?
Speaking of Stepherson, has he resurfaced anywhere? What a stupid waste of talent.

Even though it didn't work out at ND, this is a point in favor of the ND staff's ability as talent evaluators. There is a level of competence under Kelly that didn't exist for the decade before him.
Funny that Stepherson is being discussed above in this thread because that's exactly who I thought of when you posted this. Both three star guys that I'm sure many thought would never be difference makers. Stepherson played at a very high level while he was with the team while Guyton never made any contribution, but both left the program in somewhat similar fashion (Guyton broke team rules I think? Stepherson did that AND got in legal trouble). Stepherson has resurfaced at FCS level and not done much while Guyton is now an NFL starter. Damn. If you had asked 3 years ago who would be the eventual NFL starter, you wouldn't even think twice.
To further your point about the staff evaluating WR talent: I'll add Will Fuller. He was a nothing special 3* when he committed before rising to a low 4* late in the process. Hopefully Watts turns out to be some mix (talent wise) of those 3 players.
Not to derail the thread, but did Irish YJ edit this post or was this seriously a meme when he posted in 2015?
