But when a running back typically touches the ball between 20 to 30 times a game. They are Naturally going to have more of an impact on more games than a LB.


A running back is only as good as his blockers.

If he was generally considered the greatest player in SEC history he would have at least finished in the top 3.


Only a fool would use the Heisman Trophy as a barometer of how great an individual player is. Can you honestly say with a straight face that you believe players like Pat Sullivan and Mark Ingram to be better overall players than Derrick Thomas?

He's not getting that point, trust me. He seems to think that since it's "obvious" to people caught up in Heisman hype, then it's "obvious" to everyone.

Okay Start a poll on any board you want to and put up Derrick THomas against Bo Jackson and count the votes only Bama and AUburn don't get to vote who do you think wins this poll and if you say Derrick Thomas we know who the fool is. Hell Derrick wasn't even the greatest ever defensive player in the SEC.
