Barkley: something the Press is not talking about yet, but I guarantee you they will!!

Some national media dude will run with this tomorrow, mark my words. As long as it isn't Ben Jones.......NFM

No FBS player has ever had 1,000 yards rushing and 1,000 receiving in the same year, ever. Brian Westbrook at FCS Villanova was the first and only one to do it. On his current pace Barkley will have 1,564 rushing yards and 1,005 receiving yards in a 12 game season. IF you include a Big Championship Game and possibly a National Title run, I think he does it easily (if he stays healthy--say many prayers), but there is a real chance he gets it done in the regular season which would just be phenomenal. At the NFL level only two players have ever done it.........any guesses???


Roger Craig and Marshall Faulk. Pretty good company.

This may be one of the best records any one player can own and absolute dynamite for any NFL franchise looking to excite their fan base with a draft choice. Could also lend some credence and gravitas to the best ever label, even if that's all it is


Plus he is a real good human being.
 
Next time you play golf don't shank it. Uhoh I said the "S" word.
 
Can anyone name the college QB (w/o looking it up on your damn machines) who was the first to throw and run for 1000 yards in the same season?

Reggie Collier, Southern Miss, in 1981.
 
OMG.......only this board would hijack a thread looking at a completely new slant on Barkley's stats on a pissing match about the misunderstanding of a phrase from another sport (one I haven't followed in 30 years, which no one should follow because its mind numbingly boring). It's like a bunch of drunk uncles all speaking at once.

I was asking my buddy for confirmation because he is a smart ass and messes with me constantly (which I love him for). Confirmation he gladly gave me just a few posts later. The rest of you can pound sand.

And oh yeah, shhh, shhh, Barkley can win the Heisman (we've been keeping that one pretty quiet), shhh, shhh, shhh Barkley is the best ever tailback to play for Penn State (never ever discussed on this board.....more than a 100 Xs that is).......Barkley is a once in a 10 year back, shhh, shhh.. Are you kidding me?

Oy vey, what a salty bunch.
I think you hijacked the thread because you don't have a rudimentary knowledge of sports. But kudos on (a) not having that knowledge and then (b) insulting multiple posters for your own derailment of a perfectly good and understandable thread.

Marisa started the thread, Omar.
 
No.

I was your supporter. You turned on me. Did you miss the part where I wrote "marisa is very nice." I still think you're very nice.:) So's a no-hitter.;)
I didn't turn on you. Don't tell me you're one of those that can dish it but can't take it. I'd be very disappointed.
