One of the more intriguing subplots at the 2015 NFL Combine -- at least from a college perspective -- was this question: With eight players participating in Indy over the weekend and many of them projected to go among the top 50 picks, how did Miami [I]still[/I] finish the 2014 season with a sub-.500 record?

"They had one of the best running backs in college football (Duke Johnson); the best tight end ([URL='http://www.foxsports.com/collegefootball/player/clive-walford/978016']Clive Walford[/URL]); the fastest wideout ([URL='http://www.foxsports.com/collegefootball/player/phillip-dorsett/1281984']Phillip Dorsett[/URL]); one of the best O-linemen (Ereck Flowers); one of the top linebackers ([URL='http://www.foxsports.com/collegefootball/player/denzel-perryman/1295072']Denzel Perryman[/URL]); and the guy who was the most impressive player at the East-West game (DE [URL='http://www.foxsports.com/collegefootball/player/anthony-chickillo/1295062']Anthony Chickillo[/URL]), and I know they got a young QB that's a stud too (freshman Brad Kaaya)," one long-time NFL scout told FOX Sports in Indy. "They had more front-line talent than half the teams in the SEC. They didn't have as much talent as Florida State, but they were still pretty loaded. How does that team not win at least nine games in that league?"
