Herschel walker? Are you saying played against PSU? if so, sorry. I'll delete my post.

PSU greatest player ever was Mike Reid.

College football's greatest player ever was Jim Brown.

That's my 2 cents.

1. Who was Penn State's greatest football player (college career only)? My choice is Mike Reid.
2. Who was college football's greatest football player? My choice is Herschel Walker.

No, not against Penn State. Their entire college football career against all teams.

Mike Reid always seems to be the answer on this board which I just find odd because I almost never hear his name as the "greatest" outside this board. I'm also surprised Reid is mentioned ahead of Ham. Reid was slightly before my time in fairness.

LaVar is my choice followed closely by Ham. LaVar was literally the best athlete I've ever seen in the college game especially at his size. Saquon is recent bias but is in the discussion as well

Herschel is also my choice but Barry Sanders is a very close second.

Paul Posluszny

Rocket Ismail

Greatest that I saw:

Curt Warner

Barry Sanders or Ndamakong Suh (Suh was unblockable - a total force of nature)

Reading the thread title and actually processing it, LaVar.

 

[OKLionFan]

Courtney Brown
Barry Sanders

Reid has had a fabulous career, college and Pro football. He wrote "I can't make you love me",
