I hope it’s more than the bammers have
Everyone is 0-0 right now - it’s a tall fall.

Stet was great, but he had a better team around him than Herschel. Herschel #1 DGD, with Stet as a close #2!

Hershel is the top dog. I understand recency bias but Hershel was like a man playing against boys.
Stetson is a good story but not even in the same zip code as Hershel as a college football player.
You had to be there I guess.
That's a tough task especially with all the standouts we've had over the years but throw in Lindsay, Boss and Fran on that list and probably Charlie Trippi and Frank Sinkwich but you'd need a separate list for all the running backs and it would be tough to narrow that one down to just 5.
Kevin Butler probably belongs on the list too. I think he scored more points than any other Dawg ever.

John Cooper, that was a moment, wasn't it? Leaving cleat marks on the front of Bill Bate's, future 15 year NFL all-pro, jersey.
With that play, he sent a message that he was pretty special.

Hershel is unforgettable. He's doing just fine. I'm friends with in the blue room. I know him personally. Have a ton of his autographs. Really nice fella and forever a DGD!

The list might have been different but too many arrests have limited the field.

Herschel was the best, loved him, what an amazing athlete!! His recent interviews have concerned me about him but he was still a great Dawg!! Plenty of others but he was the man!!

Butthead.
Not you, that's Butlers nickname...one play that he made that really stands out was his epic kick at Clem that tied the game
I think, it was a long one and a real pressure kick. I was at that game.

Played high school ball with him at Redan. He was a couple years older and exactly what his nickname implies but he could sure kick a football.

I never will forget that run!!!!
Heard Bill Bates on Sport Talk in Chattanooga back in the early 90's, he never forgot that run either!!!!
That information is classified

I met Herschel at a food show. He had a product (#34 wings) or something along those lines. Did anything ever become of it?? I don't think I even tried any cause when I walked by the booth I didn't know it was his.

Hershel was a beast!
Stetson Bennett played with more heart & determination than most players I have ever seen!

Wally Joyner played baseball there during that time in the late 70's and Terrance Mathis came later is all I know of.
