the best hit from texas
Earl Campbell says hello
His highlights are amazing. He knocked opposing players out of the way like they were bowling pins. Most punishing offensive player to ever play the sport, and I don't think it's that close

Earl was and I suspect will always be my favorite player from anywhere, any time. He destroyed A&M while I was there, but I strangely didn't mind so much because I knew I was witnessing greatness.
That said, frick t.u.

It's the lack of momentum transfer. I've never seen a hit where a guy going full speed runs into someone with virtually no momentum and the guy with no momentum literally doesn't even flinch. It just looks so ridiculously violent, like a car doing 60 suddenly hitting a concrete wall.
That, and the fact that he broke the dude's collarbone, his jaw in two places and put him in a neck brace for six weeks.
I think you a&m guys see this play with your Aggie goggles on. The guy "going full speed" is a WR that is what 170 lb and his feet have left the ground going for the ball. His feet are not set set to deliver a hit nor does he have a set base to absorb one. He's focused on the ball and exposed. Coryatt is what 240 lb or more and his feet are set with a good base. His body "IS" in motion towards the receiver, his hips are flexed and his right shoulder lowered to deliver the blow. Did he jack the guy up? Most definitely, but it's the legal equivalent to a cheap shot. For the record I have no problem with the hit and as previously stated in the thread love to see my team get one in like it. But as far a respect, the Atwater hit carries ten time the weight than the Coryatt hit. To fill the hole on a 250 lb RB and "BOTH" players see the collision coming and you still send the RB backwards, that's impressive.

My name is Ryan Swope and I approve of this message. No, wait. Hitting defenseless receivers ain't cool. Concussions can cost you a NFL career.
