I don't envy a task of filtering College RBs into a neat list.
Rozier might make a filter

It feels super weird to have 3 UM guys at WR for an all-time team.  
A run-first, hard-nosed, stout defense reputation over decades, no big-stat QBs in their history.....yet Anthony Carter, Desmond Howard, and Braylon Edwards have strong cases.

Carter/Braylon ya.Much better receivers out there than Despot. I'd go with Toomer

What does Howard lack?  I find this opinion bizarre.

RB (12): B.Sanders, Dorsett, Allen, H.Walker, Griffin, Blanchard, D.Walker, Dayne, J.Taylor, B.Jackson, Gordon, R.Williams
So let's say this is our 12 'best' RBs of all-time.

Can we make a separate list with none of them, as the 12 'most talented' RBs ever?  I'm thinking of guys like Adrian Peterson and Marcus Dupree.

You guys got 10 more talent > productivity type guys (not that they're low-productivity)?

I'll encourage others to do just that - I'm more familiar with the Big 8 Big 12

utee doesn't usually care for my opinion of anything from Texas but,....   I'd suggest Earl Campbell

as for the Big 8 - Darren Sproles
