Where would you draw the line of guys probably in the top 100 RBs of all-time?  Do they all belong in?

1. Dayne WIS 6,397 yds @ 5.7 ypc for 63 TD
2. Taylor WIS 6,174 yds @ 6.7 ypc for 50 TD
3. Griffin OSU 5,177 yds @ 6.1 ypc for 25 TD
4. Ball WIS 5,140 yds @ 5.6 ypc for 77 TD
5. Gordon WIS 4,915 yds @ 7.8 ypc for 45 TD


this 5 would probably be in - 77 TDs is a lot

I think Taylor was better than Dayne.

Or any other back that's ever played.

Melvin Gordon, 7.8 career ypc, holy cow!!

We played against him, and it was one of the toughest outs our defense faced in that era.  That was back when we were very good on defense.

B10 and SEC has had some good backs, on paper, for 3-yds-and-a-cloud-of-dust leagues ;)

If you're looking at what kind of career a guy had, I don't mind career yards.  If you're looking at "How good was he?" I prefer ypc, because it cuts through so much of the unbalanced noise between disparate situations players find themselves in.  Not perfectly, but better than total yards.

I think Ricky Williams was better than Taylor and Dayne and every other back that's ever played.
