Based strictly on college performance I would have to say DMac and Bo.
Walker and Henry, E. Smith, and Fournette/Faulk all are in the conversation.
I think Henry is so recent that maybe we don't fully appreciate how good he was yet. Don't think it's a stretch to say he may be the best back in the NFL right now.

You haven't been around that long & you're a straight homer if that's your answer 
.... You might want to look up some stats on Herschel, carried GA to a Natty & Fournette, here's your chance to tell me about what he didn't do against Bama, but numbers don't lie

Issue I have with this is Herschel never lost an SEC Game. Won 3 SEC Championships and a NC. What did Bo do? 1 SEC Championship? Bo had more support around him than Herschel did as well. Herschel didn't have the talent around him on Offense that Bo did. To me that eliminates Bo. Bo playing Baseball means nothing on the football field. Imagine for a minute that Herschel comes back in 1983. Does Bo get an SEC Championship at all? Very doubtful.

Not a hard to do. They’re both idiots.

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).

If you think Tommy boy is a good policy maker or that Herschel would be a good policy maker, then quite frankly, you’re probably an idiot as well.

Flip McFadden and Henry and you have the top 3.

What say you?
For college only, Henry is not even in the top 10. Fournette had more yards than Henry in college.
The correct answer is Herschel Walker.

Has zero to do with the quoted part that you reacted to. But we get it, you are a liberal with the usual hate in spades.
Posted on 10/27/21 at 2:16 pm to TheBiggestBrother
In five or ten years everyone will say King Henry.

If we're talking single season, Henry is in the conversation. Doesn't he have the all time SEC single season record?
Career? That would favor Herschel. And Bo.

It's just been hammered home over time that it's between Herschel and Bo. Derrick Henry now belongs in that conversation... even if his college career was mainly one season. Bo and Herschel started multiple seasons in college so they'll have the advantage with college career stats.
If you look at the ENTIRE career... college and the NFL... it's clearly Derrick Henry.
