If too many players are added you could get a good score just by naming random colleges.

Russell Wilson played three years at NC State and only one year at Wisconsin, so NC State is really the better answer.

Randy Moss originally signed with Notre Dame He got in a fight at the end of his senior year of high school and was convicted of assault. Notre Dame revoked his scholarship and he went to FSU where he was redshirted. As part of his probation he tested positive for marijuana and had to go back to jail for 60 days. FSU revoked his scholarship. That's how one of the greatest athletes of all time who was very well known ended up at then 1AA Marshall.

Got them all on my first guess, because you very generously did not include anyone who joined the league after 2020. I used to be obsessed with the NFL, and now I barely know any players.

It's incredible what the teenager brain absorbs. I can't believe I still remember where Santana Moss went to college. That seemed like important information once. Now I barely remember where my wife went to college.
