The College Football Talent Pool: A Constantly Churning Sea of Stars The latest college football preseason rankings from ESPN highlight the biggest returning stars, but also serve as a reminder that the sport is constantly evolving.
Last year's top 100 list was rendered obsolete by season's end, with only one player who finished among the top five on the initial roster.
Notable exceptions include four players – Trinidad Chambliss, Kewan Lacy, Malachi Toney, and Arvell Reese – who weren't even mentioned in the preseason rankings.
