Isn't it fairly traditional that a bust is a player who has star (at minimum multi-year starter) potential who ends up contributing in almost no way to the program? By that definition your list pretty much disappears. Mika and Davies were far and away the most touted recruits of the group, the only anticipated stars IMO, and both (at this point) are most definitely not "busts". If you then change the definition of big man from "anyone over 6' 6"" to someone who was actually anticipated to play a post position, that eliminates another few guys off your list (Ambrosino and Rogers most notably). Then acknowledge Rose couldn't control that Chris Collinsworth would never get healthy and you have left the only 3 true busts I can figure from your list: Harward, Anderson, and Worthington. Even then, these guys are from the pool of "busts because they were expected to possibly start as juniors/seniors", and not from the "wow this coach took a guy who should have been great and ruined them" pool.

As far as Neilsen transferring - who cares? He saw the writing on the wall that Kaufusi and Davis/Aytes were going to start, Mika and Dastrup were going to back in a year, and he was the least talented of the big guys on the roster. I am happy for him to go get a chance to actually play some basketball. I would have loved a few more years of sports in my life. Unfortunately 5'8" slow white males with little athleticism aren't in huge demand.
