Anyone remember Max Emfinger? Probably not... He was a Todd Mcshay type of guy who specialized in College Recruiting a few years back.... One of the big contributing factors to him being ousted from the industry was his betting his reputation on big time recruits such as Emmit Smith.
Max Emfinger’s assessment of E-Smith when he signed with the Gators in 1987. Emfinger wrote, “Emmitt Smith isn’t big or fast and he can’t get around the corner. I know all the folks in Pensacola will be screaming and all the Florida fans will be writing me nasty letters, but Emmitt Smith is not a franchise player. He’s a lugger, not a runner. The sportswriters blew him out of proportion. When he falls flat on his face at Florida, remember where you heard it first.’’
