And, I might add, it was very well deserved. He was the best back in the whole

country that year. Nobody in the SEC, PAC10, Big10, Big12 or anywhere else could touch that guy. You can't say that about any other running back to ever play at BYU. Those other guys were fine backs, and certainly more durable, but in the years he was healthy, they weren't even close to Luke. Not in the same class, no how, no way.

Luke, and it’s not really close.

8/12/18 2:30pm

Reasoning? Seemed wonder how others would do with Luke's o-line?

A healthy Luke was head and shoulders better.

Speed, power, size, catching ability

He’s conflicted.

He had one great year. One. Jamaal and Harvey had better

I agree he was the most talented, but he couldn’t stay on the fields save his

That's why I specified, Junior Year Luke Staley

Luke without a second thought

But he wasn’t healthy. You can’t play the what if game.

Ok, Doak Walker Trophy 2001. There's an accomplishment for you.

It really is unfortunate. He was an amazing talent.

Jamaal. He played against much tougher opponents than Luke ever did.

Plus he shared the backfield with Taysom.

I don't think there's a wrong choice between Jamaal and Luke. I'd take either before Harvey.

Harvey was amazing strength and speed/ shiftiness. Would have the record

Luke, no question

Luke Staley was incredible.

Luke was great but the chance of him finishing a season would be nearly zero

HighHorse

Harvey was a threat for a good gain each play

Dan

I'd go with Jamaal. So consistent. Staley was amazing, but that was just one yr.

sportsbro

8/12/18 4:48pm

Love all. I'd go Luke, Unga & Williams. Jamaal is the only one to play 4 years.

Jamaal, Luke, Unga

To anyone who actually watched Luke Staley play, this is an easy question.

I watched Staley play and based on Jamaal’s sr year, I give him the edge
