    Wow thats depressing, outside of Earl who in my opinion is the best rb ever, not alot to talk about. Now go back and rank the best players to come out of the state of Texas and you got yourself a list. Says alot about the recruiting or lack there of from the Longhorns.

    That list sucks and clearly skews very young. No appreciation for anyone pre-mack brown.

    Bobby Layne is a HOF'er

    Agreed, Layne should be way up on the list.

    That's the thing with most lists, they always skew towards newer people, things, and places. One example, how could a film, like M, for crime-noir films be ranked in the mid to low 30s? I can guarantee you, most of the people under 35 have never seen that film.

    I have and it's good but it doesn't blow you away. Pretty cool ending though. Pretty random reference. There are a lot of fantastic film noir movies too.
