[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 307501, member: 265"] Since nobody has mentioned them: John Sias: One of the best WRs in Tech history. Big, fast, and extremely sure hands. Larry Good: For a long time the Tech leader in passing, but what was great about him was his running ability. They didn't call it the "Camilla Shuffle" for nothing; no Tech QB was ever as shifty. He would have absolutely [I]ruled[/I] in our present O. Steve Raible: Another great WR. Big, fast, and had a good pro career. Gerry (sorry, Gerald) Bussell: One of our best DBs ever. Coach Dodd always corrected the news media on his first name; Bussell preferred Gerald. And, yes, Tony Hollings would have won the Heisman if he hadn't got hurt and Tech would have won 11 games at least. I particularly remember seeing him turn the corner against Clemson in our game up there. There were three Tiggers converging on him and just a little crease ahead. Tony slipped. He was cussing all the way back to the huddle; if he had kept his feet it would have been a sure TD. As I said here once, the only back I've seen who was in the same universe was O. J. Simpson. Tony was the same size, just as cute, accelerated just as quickly, and might have been a half step [I]faster[/I]. I've always regretted that a) it took Chan to recognize his talent (what [I]was[/I] George O'Leary thinking?) and b) that he had his career ended by injury. [/QUOTE]
