Well, that's only a 5 hour drive to Gainesville. You were right, he should've 
gone a little farther south. :-)

He is from Wrightsville.  

 

Wrightsville to Athens = 120.14 miles.

Wrightsville to Gainesville = 305.00 miles

Warner Robbins?

I remember reading that he drove to Athens to start his freshman year in a
brand new car.

Wonder how that happened?

Where was Hershel from?  Somewhere in south Georgia I think.

I agree.  On top of that Hershel is a class guy.  I just wish he would have
moved a little further South than heading North to go to college.

Even though I hate the dawgs all the way to the bone I do think Walker was
one of the best to have played the game.

Zeb,

 

There is a problem with this as well.  Using your concept, Chris
Collingsworth was the greatest QB in NCAA history because his average yards
per throw was 99 and his completion percentage was 100%.

 

You could have a person who played only one year win the record.  Tim has
the record because he has stayed longer and played more games.  Part of
Tim's record is his durability.  Perhaps Hershel would have been injured had
he payed as many games and then might not have had as many touchdowns.
Similarly, what about those who played on the freshmen teams.  Should their
statistics be added in?

 

Any system will have its problems.  If this is the way we keep score now,
then that is what we live with.  I suppose you could argue that we need to
"standardize" the way we keep the records.  The problem with that is that
you can not always really do that.  For example, let's look at the highest
scoring shooting guards in Men's basketball.  To be fair to the older
players, we would have to find the videos of all of their games, calculate
where the 3 point line would have been had they been playing with one, and
then recalculate their career points.  The problem is that if there would
have been a 3 point line, perhaps more people would have tried 3 point
goals.rats, fouled again!

All of career and season stats should be kept on an average per game basis,
but they are not because - if they did - Jim Brown would still be the NFL's
leading rusher. Until someone adopts this method, the rule is the rule.
