How big a difference is there between College and Pro levels in Football and Basketball talentwise and "skillwise"? I know that College Football and B-Ball is huge in the U.S and that the overall quality of the athletes is really good (depending on schools also).

I have a friend that is really into basketball and he always says that think's that the best basketball in the world is played in College. Even better than the NBA.
I heard it once described that only 1-2% of all guys who play high school football or basketball are good enough to play at the major college level. Then only 1-2% of those college players are good enough to play @ the pro level.
