Ross,
I can’t believe Matt Hayes of The Sporting News believes Tim Tebow is the greatest college football player of all-time. From what I have read, two oldtimers, Jim Thorpe and Red Grange, would be at the head of my list. Thorpe was used as a running back, defensive back, place kicker and punter at Carlisle when they won the national championship in 1912. Grange also played on a national champion at Illinois in the 1920′s. He appeared in just 20 college games, but gained almost 170 yards a start. One day, Red scored four touchdowns in one quarter against Michigan, and the shortest was 44 yards.
