Here're three from my undergrad years--early 90s.

We had the Triple Threat of Texas A&M Tailbacks Greg Hill, Rodney Thomas, and Leeland McElroy.
quote:

"The only thing good I can say about them from a defensive perspective is that they can't all carry the ball at the same time," said Joe Wessel, who coaches Notre Dame's linebackers.

But [Aggie OC] Bob Toledo does look for occasions when he can play all of them at the same time, using the powerful Thomas at fullback, the elusive Hill at tailback and the fast McElroy at wide receiver.

"That keeps the alumni happy," Toledo said.

Those were amazing times. One of em always had the ball--and the defense knew it was coming. But they had a hard time stopping em.

Rest in peace, Rodney. Funeral services to be held Friday.
