    Jackson was ever so slightly faster, but Walker's sheer size and strength were unfair at the college level.

    Why was he the only black kid in his school?

    These high school films are like watching a Mack truck running through newspaper.

    I've only seen three guys close to that level: Bo Jackson, Marcus DuPree, and Adrian Peterson. Jamal Lewis at his best was a whole lot closer than most realize.

    The other thing this documentary shows is how utterly awesome Larry Munson was behind the mic.

    Jam in the AA game was awfully close. I'll put Webb up there with Peterson as a RB.

    Derek doesn't look anything like Vince. Of course Vince is older than dirt now.

    Buck Belue tells a story of prepping for an Alabama game. He said that Vince was concerned about Alabama scouts possibly spying on practice. Says he told Vince, “Why are you worried, we only run 4 plays… Herschel right, Herschel left, Herschel up the middle, and fake to Herschel and throw to Lindsay Scott”.

    The leap, landing, and subsequent touchdown run against Ole Miss still amazes me.

    That Marino guy turned out to be alright, too.

    That kind of plantation mentality BS is why I hate Vince Dooley and the rest of the redneck fossils of his era.

    Yeah... sure didn't sound like Vince was looking out for his own self-interest with that little spiel, did it?

    Loran Smith is a blithering idiot. He is the worst sideline guy in the business.

    No, but it was perfectly in character for that pompous, pious piece of work.

    Is this part of the 30 series?

    I'd like to Tivo when it comes on again.

    ESPN will definitely show it again.

    i like how the game from last weekend came on right after the show.
