Emmitt Smith and Barry Sanders are two of the best. Oh, and they were pretty good at football too.

A class act, wish there were more like Emmitt.

Emmitt was good but no where near the talent of Barry Sanders.

Best of luck for EJ at Stanford. Go Gators!

Hell yeah Emmitt. Way to be a dad!

Not to mention, it is Stanford. Phenomenal academic school. If he applies himself, that is a great education to have in case football is not his endgame.
