No offense to Chafie Fields, he wouldn’t even make my top 6 list.

In no particular order, here are the most explosive PSU players I have seen since 1972:

Ki-Jana Carter
KJ Hamler
Saquon Barkley
OJ McDuffie
Blair Thomas
Michael Timpson

All these guys had tremendous speed.

I'd add this guy to the list

I’ve seen them all starting with Warner and I would go with Barkley. The others all had a superior OL in front of them. Barkley seemed to do it mostly on his own.

Barkley is probably a bigger, stronger athlete, not sure he was a better all around back than Warner however.

He made my day in Miami in 1999. What a play!
Busload of fans from Key Largo sponsored by the owner of Snapper's a Miami grad. 36 folks, 30 PSU fans. Entire upper level filled with PSU fans. What a day. He unknowingly bought my house years later in Vero Beach. Had to hide my PSU gear while his wife was looking at house. Life is truly strange and funny. :giggle:
