There is a big difference between the NFL evaluating college DT talent and college coaches evaluating HS DT talent.
NFL coaches can pretty much figure out who will succeed at that level, college coaches don't have that luxury of getting players who have 4-5 years of good coaching, a ton of time in the weight room and years of playing against better talent every week to prepare them for that level.
