Eric Dickerson gained 4,450 yards on 790 carries to break Earl Campbell’s Southwest Conference record for yards and attempts. His 48 career touchdowns tied Doak Walker’s SMU total for career scoring. In his senior year, despite splitting time with James, Dickerson finished third in the Heisman Trophy voting, behind Herschel Walker and John Elway.[8] He was also a first-team All-American in 1982 and a second-team All-American in 1981

We didn't bother recruiting him because we knew we couldn't afford him.

Copying the NFL's 100 years team....I want to fill in players nearly all of us agree upon and then see if we can fill it out to completion.
This is college only.  COLLEGE ONLY.  Going back 100 years (1925-2024) only.  I'd prefer P4/5 only, but that's wonky before the late 70s.
Copy and add to it if you think a guy is consensus or close to it.


T (7): J.Thomas, Ogden, Pace, Fralic, Gallery, McKinnie, Yary
G (7): Shields, Hannah, Steinkuhler, A.Taylor, Andrews, J.Parker, Kell
we're talking college only, Jake Long should be on that list for tackle way before Robert Gallery makes a sniff. Jake Long was insane level good and injuries robbed him of what should've been an NFL HoF career. Could make a great case for Steve Hutchinson at guard too.

could be homer of me- but don't think so. both those guys were stupid good.

Yeah if only the NCAA's corrupt and illegal rules against a specific class of US citizens receiving the same rights as all other citizens, had been opposed and stuck down 50 years earlier!

I think you have to include NFL performance in such a ranking.
