Vince Young was a great pure athlete.

Poor guy is dumber than a sack of wet mice (5 on the Wonderlic), so the NFL did't work out so well. (Damn you Jeff Fisher!!)

But, fortunately for Vince, he does hold a bachelor's degree....

Jerry West- NBA logo
Chuck Howley- Only Superbowl MVP to be on the losing team. His team won the Superbowl the next year though.
Hal Greer
Randy Moss

I would say Moss is the best pure athlete. The guy could have played in the NBA if he wanted to.

Correction: Ha-KEEM was born in Nigeria. Given that fact, I'll go with:

1) Shaq
2) Drew Brees
3) Roger Clemons
4) Nolan Ryan
5) Johnny Football

Greatest thing about this thread is all the repeatedly misspelled names.
