Because me and that other dude that loves Kirby would be the only ones who care, but if you want, off the top of my head:

1. Herschel Walker
2. Nick Chubb
3. Todd Gurley
4. Garrison Hearst
5. Sony Michel
6. Knowshon Moreno
7. Frank Sinkwich(Heisman winner in 42, I assume he was good)
8. D'Andre Swift
9. Keith Marshall(injuries derailed his career, but he was every bit as good as Gurley when both were healthy)
10. Terrell Davis(he shined brighter in the NFL, but I can't leave him off)
 
Hershel's not even from this planet, so take him out and move everyone else up a notch. I got to know him in Dallas because he lived a couple of houses away from my place. Nicest guy you'd ever want to meet. One morning I saw him jogging so I fell in with him and we ran a couple of miles together. After that we'd occasionally run together and I often invited him to our back yard parties. Humble. But what impressed me the most was he's SMART. Sharp as a rat's turd. I hope he runs for office.
 
Am I the only one who thinks Peterson’s college career is overhyped?

Had an AMAZING freshman year no doubt maybe the best a Freshman RB has ever had. But wasn’t he like hurt in 05 and 06? I could’ve swore he missed the whole second half of the season one of those years and then broke his foot and missed half of the other season.

All time great professional RB tho

Damn shame.

Marcus Dupree could have been the top spot on this list.

Let the fame get to his head too soon.
 
I liked AP, but didn't he have one great season and then got injured and then was just good while at OU?
 
I was hoping when I clicked on this thread i'd see this...

2. Billy Simms (1975-1979)
1. Adrian Peterson (2004-2006)

Thank you!
