This will be a walk down memory lane for most CFers. I have always wanted to bring up a thread bringing up the best players/popular athletes ever at ISU and get a running list on Jersey numbers from 1-99. Once someone has been named, feel free to comment....or if someone else has not been named yet...bring them up......and add a memory of that player if you want. Then, let's get moving on up to 99. I am thinking about MBB and FB. (Obviously I know that some players have used the number 0....Jake Sullivan.....but we will begin with players that have donned the #1 -then #2 and so on.) In my ISU Lifetime....the top #1's are: #1 - Todd Blythe [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]WR Todd Blythe[/FONT] #1 Curtis Stinson
I have a feeling before he is done Sed Johnson will be one of the all-time greats at ISU to have worn #2.
Current #2 Sedrick Johnson: I also agree that he could become a great player when it is all said and done. Also, wasn't Darren Davis #2 when Troy was still here? Then he switched to #28 like his brother- I think the best #2 ever is Ennis Haywood. He had a heck of a year when we went 9-3 in 2000 and a bowl win against PITT.
Yes. Right now, I've got Sean Haluska on the mind for 3. J.J. Bass would have been fun if that had worked out better. Who am I missing?
Yes, we are going in order here. And of course FIZER is the best #5 ever.....we will get to him. I am having trouble with #3s at the moment. Mike Born? Bryan Pearson? Joe Moderman was #3. What about FB?
#3 - Jon Neal Had one spectacular game but it did come at Iowa's expense. Wasn't Gary Thompkins also #3. He was really good.
Maybe we can come back to the #3s if someone has a dinamite one. So onto the #4s My Fav: Kantrail Horton - Clutch 2 guard....was a great roll player as well. Him and Tinsley owned the Big 12. another #4 Jackson Vroman - He was a popular guy on campus too... good hard nosed player.
Gilstrap will be #3, but he doesn't fit the mold yet. Something about needing to do it on the court first. But maybe he makes the list next time.
I don't know.... I was wondering if there is a site that can look up old rosters? Does anyone know of any?
who was the corner that was all big xii in the meyer days? somethin jackson, i want to say DeAngelo but i dont know
