Most talented running back group of all time?

[sonnyblack65]

SMU 's Pony express wasn't bad with Dickerson and James

 

[The Crimson King]

Got arrested. Then a couple suspensions.


Think he left before Saban made him leave though.

He was in the dog house for getting arrested, but he left on his own after redshirting. He went to JV before he wound up at Tennessee.

Word. I forgot how it went down. Seems like he didn't do that much at Tenn either. Crazy how he's blown up. My new favorite player lol

First time he's went into a season as a lead back, that Im aware of.


Crazy for such a rare talent.

One I haven't seen mentioned:

Floyd Little and Larry Csonka, Syracuse

1965-66

Floyd Little rushed for 1,065 yards in 1965 and 811 yards in 1966. Larry Csonka rushed for 795 and 1,012. This duo joins Thomas and Sanders as the only twosomes who went on to become Pro Football Hall of Famers.

You could also add Tommie Frazier, he was basically a running back lined up at QB

He was their leading rusher...but it was Tennessee...he was better than the team.

 

[NolePride]

I never remember which was which. I would guess that Doc was "Mr. Inside" but I'm not sure if that's just based on the order that you wrote them in

Blanchard was Mr Inside. Davis, Mr Outside

We'll probably never see a team having two RBs picked in the top 5 of the same draft the way Auburn had with Ronnie Brown and Carnell Williams again.

 

[steelerssb]

The winner is probably Thurman Thomas and Barry Sanders, though.

 

[obxyankeefan]

Joe Washington and Billy Sims

Thomas Jones and Antoine Womack

Washington and Sims should be in the discussion as being a top 10 tandom.
Jones and Womack are at best honorably mentions

 

[Angry red]

Thurman Thomas and Barry Sanders at Okie St.

 

[Angry red]

Lawrence Phillips, Ahman Green and Joel Mackovicka
