    alexander-well rounded
    addai-well rounded, few fumbles
    hester-well rounded, few fumbles
    hilliard
    williams, harvey
    faulk-not counting longevity or returning ability, problems against top oppts


    i'll be controversial and choose RBs based not on how good they were at the time but how good they would be if all played in their prime at the same time. i think the most decorated tiger RBs (cannon, stovall, taylor) would have a hard time starting.

    not counting KR, PR or FB abilities, longevity.
    counting pass catching, blocking, fumbling, play-making.

  6. LaSalleAve

    LaSalleAve when in doubt, mumble

    i should have read the subject line i thought it said running back, he did line up at halfback in short yardage situations, but was considered a fullback. my bad.
