	As a native of the state, it never ceases to amaze me how often Missouri sports teams are forgotten on these quizzes.

	I generally like the bonuses, except when I'm running out of time, and am trying to put in something like Georgia Tech, only to have it fill in Georgia - causing me to have to start over.

	"Schools that" > "schools who." (Sorry, sorry.)

	USC is nowhere to be found on this list but they do top the list of having players most deleterious to a University's sports program to be taken in the first round.

	Only got one bonus (California) anybody willing to share what the other two are

	I really wanna punch myself in the face for missing the college with the 2nd most first round picks. Guess I have my UConn blinders on.

	@drn211- temple is another bonus, i dont know what the third is since i typed in "georgia" like gwynn1984 said and it wasnt a bonus

	thepikey7:	Jun 25th, 2010 at 00:39 GMT	1 point
	Seton hall is another bonus

	You should put NBA in the title for the game.

	Now that the top picks are "one and done" at college, does this even matter anymore? Although I appreciate the trivia. Look for this to be turned upside-down in the near future, as colleges with less emphasis on academics (I'm lookin' at you, Florida State) grab guys for one year. College basketball as we knew it ten years ago is done.

	updated as of the end of the 1st round of the 2010 draft..

	I agree with JohnJF

	disseminator:	Jun 25th, 2010 at 03:43 GMT	0 points
	really, JohnJF? you're surprised people don't think of missouri that often?

	dje:	Jun 25th, 2010 at 03:55 GMT	-3 points
	gonna have to bump kentucky up a few points after tonight... they had 5 more drafted in the first round tonight as much as it pains me to see it.

	@disseminator: St. John's basketball hasn't been relevant for twenty years and is far more difficult to guess by using the popular "Guess states and states followed by State" method. I am quite surprised that it's still more guessed than Missouri.

	i really can't believe depaul has fallen off so much...hopefully that program gets turned around sooner than later. this quiz shows that there's more tradition there than i realized...

	ClutchMcB:	Jun 25th, 2010 at 14:58 GMT	2 points
	Alabama: Robert Horry, Latrell Sprewell, Gerald Wallace, Roy Rogers, Derrick McKey, Antonio McDyess, and some others that didn't pan out. Bama has had some basketball stars, just not solid teams.

	I knew that Georgia Tech would be on the list, but I had no idea they'd be SO high. Wow.

	skinnyd:	Jun 26th, 2010 at 15:57 GMT	1 point
	Temple is the third bonus

	ClintT13:	Jun 29th, 2010 at 03:33 GMT	0 points
	I missed Syracuse AND Arizona ... yet I still finished in the 99th percentile. I'm shocked people aren't getting higher scores on this. 31 out of 35 shouldn't be 99th percentile.

	I'm also a native Missourian and I knew they'd be on here, only because they've had so many NBA busts and underachievers. Kareem Rush, Keyon Dooling, Linas Kleiza, Anthony Peeler, Doug Smith, Derrick Chievous, Demarre Carroll, Jon Sunvold, Steve Stipanovich, Larry Drew ... I'm forgetting one. It's amazing how many first rounders they've produced without a single player becoming an All-Star.

	I didn't read the source list and thought this was a quiz about football. Was very confused why USC wasn't on there! It would be good to put NBA or basketball somewhere in the title.

	Alright, thumbs up if you tried Butler.

	gagurl14:	Jun 1st, 2011 at 00:30 GMT	1 point
	High school should be an option as a bonus :)

	aznemesis:	Jul 19th, 2011 at 05:29 GMT	2 points
	I know it's not there in the title, but a glance at the reference should clue you in to the fact that this is basketball.

	smartster:	Jul 30th, 2011 at 08:15 GMT	1 point
	The Usual Suspects. (Also, @ClintT13: Larry Drew was no slouch and except for maybe Stipanovich, none of these guys projected as an AllStar IMO. Just looked Stipanovich up. Career ended @ 27 by knee injury.)

	temple and seton hall

	pirate6711:	Jul 30th, 2011 at 23:39 GMT	1 point
	Only missed Memphis. I guess I forgot about them because of all the seasons they had to vacate due to Calipari's cheating.
