Clowney for USCjr?

ugga bugga fans with the jr stuff ... lulz. You skeered.

But no ... it's George Rogers. He was dominant in every game he played for four years.

Hannah was AA at Bama, was considered one of the best all time.

He was consents AllPro in NFL.
And thought by many as all time best O lineman ever.

I watched him play at Bama and don’t remember him getting beat.
But that was a long time ago.

Johnny Manziel.

Personal favorites were Dat Nguyen, Von Miller, and Ryan Swope, though.

Gonna say George Rogers for USC (I'm old enough to remember watching him).

But a guy that runs a close second to me is Alshon Jeffery. Sidney Rice really had the same kind of stats (and Sterling Sharpe/Rober Brooks back in the day), but there was something different about Alshon.

I think he did more than any other player to start that good streak of 10 win seasons Spurrier had. More than Shaw, Clowney, or Lattimore.

Julio Jones had big stats and has had a great NFL career. But in college Jeffery somehow could not be covered. Sure it was easy enough to find a guy who could run with him, but in the end if the qb could get the ball anywhere near him in a decent position he was coming down with the ball.

I think he is the only offensive player we have had in recent memory that could not be shut down by Alabama or another elite school. Lattimore was like that too, to some extent, but I really don't think even Alabama had a corner who could have shut Jeffery down. Rice was similar in a lot of ways, but lacked the same kind of physicality.

Scared of what? The only thing I'm scared of is that we won't cover the spread and I won't get my money

Most will say Archie Manning. I'm gonna go with Patrick Willis though. Then Chad Kelly is 2nd on my list but I'm admittedly too young for Archie memories.

Hard for me to choose between Archie, Connerly, Jake Gibbs, and Bruiser Kinard.

I could make arguments for Hutson, Lee Roy Jordan, Cornelius Bennett, Derrick Thomas, AJ McCarron, Barrett Jones, Amari Cooper, and perhaps Minkah Fitzpatrick...think I'd still go with John Hannah though...

I have been fortunate enough to watch some greats, Peyton, Al Wilson, Leonard Little, Jamal Lewis (although injurys kept him from being what he could have in college) and Eric Berry.

For someone that has a position to not make as many big plays I would say Eric Berry was as exciting of a player as we've had. He probably averaged like 30 yards per interception return.
