Herschel, Bo, Emmitt and Henry are all in the discussion imo. I'm an Auburn fan so naturally I'm going to say Bo
Bo was the greatest athlete...Herschel was the greatest running back.

Was he a better athlete than Herschel? I think they're pretty damn even. Yes Bo played baseball and football professionally and was an all-star and pro-bowler once each. Walker was obviously a pro football player but also was an olympic bobsledder, competed in MMA at almost 50 years old (and won both matches), is a black belt in Taekwondo, performed at the Dallas ballet (
), and was a two-time AA on the Georgia track team. Herschel and Bo are both unicorn athletesThis post was edited on 10/27/21 at 12:15 pm

?
Herschel was faster.
Herschel Walker ran a 6.12 60 yard dash in a 1981 track meet.
Bo Jackson's record in the 55 yard dash (still a record at auburn) was 6.18 seconds.
Herschel has the faster 100 meter time as well (10.1 to 10.44 for Bo).
