Well we can start tracking the data for them now. Lets start with the first "Blue Chipper" not surprisingly also to Tennessee, David Oku.
David Oku Stats:
TENN:
2009 FR 23 Car 94 Yds
2010 SO 42 Car 174Yds
2011 (waiting year)  Transfer to Arkansas State due to lack of playing time.
Ark ST:
2012 JR(rs) 243 Car 1061Yds.
 
Yards per Carry are very similar for Tennessee 4.1 and ArkST 4.4, Not lighting up the sky given that Jarome is at 5.2 right now, but we're talking about him playing in 2009 and 2010 taking some load off Carter and Bailey and being more featured in the 2011 season when Antwone Bailey was getting beat to hell every down also for a 4.4 avg at season's end. If Bailey had been part of a 1-2 punch and not forced to take so many carries his numbers would have likely been much better also.
 
So Tennessee had a possible 1000 yd Rusher sitting #3or#4 on their bench that would have been #1 or #2 here in 2011 who knows how much potential was squandered in the 3 years where he didn't get PT. Now he's playing at ArkST not a bad team but outside of the BCS conferences looking in.
 
Everybody look one guy up with specific playing time stats and post it I'm sure one of our fearless leaders here will direct a certain recruiting coordinator to the list.
