Listen, I'm very happy for what Jake has accomplished, but IMO if you're not successful in the NBA, its hard for me to consider you as a great pro basketball player. And as a QB, Bishop was a backup in the NFL before going on to a good career in the CFL and indoor leagues. That's all very good, but for me to consider a career as a pro QB great, it would have to take place as a starter on an NFL team

True.

If you go by the NFL, the greatest K-State QBs are...
1. Grogan
2. Dickey
3. Freeman

i don't know why this is controversial. we're talking about ksu careers and pullen/bishop were the best. my post said its a bummer neither had great pro careers. i guess i define great too narrowly

since the only two rational possible answers are bishop and pullen, I'd say that nealy is getting appropriate play

Depending on how far we're expanding the board, Griffin's in the conversation.

This.  I remember Nealy's interview in SI where he bragged that when he played for the (KC) Kings, he was the only NBA player whose dad drove him to practice and games
