This reminds me. Probably one of the most fulfilling careers has to be Tony Dorsett

Heisman trophy
College national championship
super bowl
super bowl mvp
league mvp?

I forget what all he won but it was something ridiculous like that.

Dorsett was a college football running back at the University of Pittsburgh, and helped lead them to a national title in 1976, picking up the Heisman Trophy, the Maxwell Award, the Walter Camp Award (Player of the Year), and the UPI Player of the Year along the way as he led the nation in rushing with 1,948 yards. He was a three-time First-team All-American (1973, 1975, 1976) and a Second-team All-American in 1974 by UPI and NEA. Dorsett finished his college career with 6,082 total rushing yards, then an NCAA record. This would stand as the record until it was surpassed by Ricky Williams in 1998.


quote:

In Dorsett's rookie year, he rushed for 1,007 yards and 12 touchdowns and won the Rookie of the Year honors.

On January 3, 1983, during a Monday Night Football game, Dorsett broke a 99-yard touchdown run against the Minnesota Vikings, which is the longest run from scrimmage in NFL history.

He is the only player in history who has won the Heisman Trophy; won the Super Bowl; won the College National Championship; been enshrined in the College Hall of Fame, and been enshrined in the Pro Football Hall Of Fame.

Kevin Faulk has won several championships with new england


The only thing Kevin Faulk did at LSU was the infamous cover of Sports Illustrated entitled "See ya later, Gator" in 1997 when LSU took out #1 Florida with SOS as coach IN TIGER STADIUM.

Was Corey Webster on the 03 Championship team, he was on the Giants team that beat the Pats

Holey Moley...I almost just shite my pants. Webster made the interception at the end of the 2003 Georgia game that locked up one of the biggest home victories in program history.

I was there and it was the first time I ever felt like "this could be the year for LSU football". Great game, great play, great player...Corey Webster.

No shite! And the stats dont even do it justice. IMO, him signing with LSU started us on the path of "relevancy". One of the all time instrumental LSU athletes

"ALL EYES ON 3" in his hair @ Auburn. I'd have to say he did a little more than those two things at LSU though...
