I’m all for variety but, objectively speaking, you don’t rank the literal best player in CFB history as second. You just don’t. Unless you’re Berry Tramel, of course.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH…
Wait a second…
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA…
With all due respect to Thurman Thomas, people don’t remember him the same way they remember Barry.
The Audible had an interesting discussion about this a while back. It was mostly in reference to Cam Newton but Barry was also mentioned. Do you weight one unbelievable season higher than several great years? You can make your case either way depending on what you think should be valued the most, consistency or peak.
I agree. Simply a “reaction-getting” ranking of #1 and #2 for the article. I loved the Thurmanator. He was THE running back for my years at OSU. But Barry is #1.
