Who is the greatest non Cane CFB player you have ever seen?

[Elmer Leghorn]

Desmond Howard was really good at Michigan

 

[MumbleRap]

Lamar Jackson.

He had plumbers for teammates and absolutely dominated. Imagine if he actually went to a school with any nfl talent

 

[Rellyrell]

Didn't dude have a game where he rushed for over 400? I feel like I remember that.

400 rushing yards in a single game is other worldy.

Yeah man; 407.

 

[Kempo Cane]

Earl Campbell was a bad man!

 

[caneingville]

I’m too young to remember seeing him in college, but I hear OJ Simpson killed it at USC.

 

[TemplarCane]

Randy Moss

Adding to my own list. Many of the same as others here on CIS.

Herschel Walker
Bo Jackson
Barry Sanders

and...

Marcus Dupree
Sadly only lasted one season at OU for a multitude of reasons

Great vid! Oklahoma being in the SEC still feels so weird.

It's crazy that people forget Adrian Peterson should have won the Heisman as a freshman. They refused to give it to a freshman at the time though. He's not my top choice, but definitely deserves a mention.

Johnny Football.

On TV? Countless. In person? Todd Reesing.

And then Tebow getting it as a sophomore was controversial, and that wasn’t even 20 years ago. Crazy how quickly times have changed.

Barry Sanders

 

[jdmorgan76]

25 carries for 154 and 2 TD’s.

I guess even the great ones have bad games.

Sat out the 4th quarter

 

[Moonman]

There are so many great players I've watched on TV that it's almost impossible to narrow it down, but if we're talking live and in person it's hands down Marshall Faulk.

I sat in the OB and watched Faulk run for 150 against the 1991 CANES D as a true freshman. After that I watched every SDSU game that was televised until he left for the NFL.

There are others who I've seen in person who were otherworldly such as Vick, Bush and Peterson...but Faulk will always stand out because of what he did that night against our D.

 

[N.M.B. Cane]

Desmond Howard
Marshal Faulk

 

[JeffreyG]

Chris Rix is my favorite non cane

 

[Hstokes1447]

Michael Vick

 

[ben]

another name i'll throw out there is Tyron Smith. I remember watching Southern Cal when he was a freshman, and he looked like a tight end with impossibly long arms. he was stone-walling kids at like 250 pounds.
