How Good Was Herschel Walker

[@Brad88ford]

Two of the Greatest athletes Bo Jackson and Herschel Walker in the 80s. They were amazing!

[@gigapus5050]

Got that right and to this day still haven't seen anything like them.

[@browningbelgium2326]

No truer words ever spoken.

[@kevinmixon7988]

Quiet as kept in that very first tecmo bowl, everybody think bo or Payton is tops,but really it's Hershel. I'll anybody alive wit dat Dallas squad......sike. but also not sike. Hey I just invented not sike. But play and see..

[@rickross5512]

Herschel Walker football career. Legendary

[@losoj30]

Put this man in the HALL OF FAME!!!!!

[@robertwiles8106]

He's blackballed because he took on liberalism.

[@KennethFrierson-wt6xt]

I agree

[@johnhaas3270]

NO!!! He wasn’t that good. He got exposed for being overrated when he left Dallas for minneaotta

[@mickeywoodward3921]

What a life he has lived! Incredible man! What a dominant force on the football field. I’m 60, I don’t think he received the recognition he deserved.

[@jakebarnes1950]

I'm 73 and I think he has more than he deserves.

[@GusMitchell-mh7pl]

I attended UGA during Hershel’s last year there. Got to see him play, he was unstoppable .

[@MarkFlo-x2b]

I took inspiration from Hershells' life because I, too, have been bullied at different stages in my life and I truly understand how that can either destroy a person internally and emotionally or can raise your standard of expectations in your life into the stratosphere [ only if you use that Hurt and pain] to push you beyond the limit. Instead of wallowing in misery you take that pain and turn it into Victory for yourself and those who truly value You. Just like Hershell Walker did. He is a man of morality, virtue, and good manners. I remember as a kid I wanted to be just like him

[@sschirmer22]

Herschel's HS football coach, Gary Phillips, was my principal in HS. His office, which I visited more than once 😄, was like a shrine to Herschel.

[@Dinan5iver2]

Walker belongs in the Hall of Fame, period. Those guys he competed against in the USFL were pros and many would have been drafted in the NFL but, like Walker, chose to leverage the USFL opportunity for higher wages. The man is a hall of famer.

[@07trapp]

Herchel is a natural, a one of a kind, even as a freshman, so fresh to this game, you just don't see anyone run in those gears, He dominated those older players, size, two or three years of experience. It had no bearing on him, whatsoever. Had unreal quickness, unreal speed and could hit the brakes on a dime, twist, hit you head on, bounce off, deflect right or left, take one or two steps at the line and go airborne, over the top for a frist down! Or touchdown! Hit the gas and he's gone! Was a threat to go all the way! Each and every time he touched the ball! Watch most of the replays in his career, the entire defense is in slow slow motion, pursuit is futile and even if defense anticipates, he drops the clutch, accelerates and maneuvers all the way with ease ! He was the Milk Truck with the quickness and speed of a Ferrari! Oh yes he was.That's my scouting report! If you think I'm spot on, give me a thumbs up and i can share my thoughts on more !

[@krl97a]

His case is unique and based on his staggering All Purpose Yards total, but I've always argued that Walker belongs in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

[@KennethFrierson-wt6xt]

He could do it all on the foot ball field fast , shifty, could catch, rare talent USFL states should count those guys were pros too some of the best alot ended up In The NFL those guys in Canada are pretty good too Warren Moon and many others

[@timmyers9825]

I lived in Atlanta, 1980- 1985, and it was Hershel Heaven.There was a saying that everyone was in on , that we are all kin to Hershel. He was a regional cultural phenomenon .Alot of what he did, during college,was off the football field. He brought people together for good

[@JohnnyBallgame88]

GOAT RB in college football

[@TheJpep2424]

Yes!!!

[@powell4661]

His accomplishments on the football field should place him in the Hall of Fame. Imagine if he had played his senior year at Georgia.

[@tesstickles1280]

His receiving yards are very impressive!

[@nunyabizznizz7326]

without HW, the 90's cowboys wouldnt have won those chips.......they got so many picks in the trade, they remade the whole team

[@MisterCrookedNose]

11 players!

[@kenconaway7681]

Herschel is one of the greatest athletes of all time. He’s not only that but he is a great American, a great leader of men and humble as the day is long. I worked with his father and brother in the 70s and know that he came from a strong family and community. That he was subjected to having an election stolen from him In the dead of night by Fulton county apparatchiks is a shame and a disgrace to the state of GA.

[@JosephSachitano]

Walker....over the top.!!!

[@hushson9411]

Herschel is the ONLY NFL player to be a member of the triple-4000 club (4000 career rushing, receiving and return yards). He did that despite playing three of his prime years in another league. Unbelievable. Great video!

[@Southprong59]

And playing for a crappy Cowboys team . . .

[@AltonW521]

Heck of an athlete. I’ll never forget him beating Darrell Green in that track race.

[@kevinriddiough7752]

In 1994, at the age of 34, Herschel had a 90+ yard run, reception, and Kickoff return. I believe he is still the only player to have 3 90+ yard plays in the same season

[@Southprong59]

You are correct . . . an amazing stat. Very few players have a 90+ yard play in their career, much less 3 in one year!

[@dennissaunders5247]

Walker was legendary, in college and in professional football, track and field, an Olympian and Mma fighter. INCREDIBLE VERSATILITY. He runs for office as a conservative and now the INSANE LIBERAL WOKE A HOLES, CALL HIM A RACIST.

[@danieljones-pk7pu]

walker was a bad man ! underrated for sure

[@grovepeate3316]

Shafer Suggs , Generals DB told me he was a Thoroughbred, hit harder then anyone he ever played against as a Jet strong safety.

[@gjamesd1]

I AGREE Herschel Walker definitely was a great in Collegiate Footbal and Prefessional player. He is deserving of the Hall of Fame! He was a Professional in all his endeavors!!!

[@t.m.ballantynejr.6935]

Herschel Walker not being in the Hall of Fame is akin to Roger Marris not being there. BOTH were household names. Let's not forget...it's called the Hall of FAME! That isn't to say that EITHER of their achievements were insignificant. They were BOTH off the charts!

[@RedLeo-pf9yo]

USFL was offering more money for superstars.

[@DeathVally18]

Him and Bo were the best

[@tedsilversyeager840]

A man among boys.....HW, should be in the HOF, without a doubt.....

[@DwayneSims-j5j]

Watching him run became like what we watched later in Forrest Gump🙂

[@jefflambert835]

Definitely up to the hype and then some

[@frederickgarrett1137]

Definitely a hall a famer

[@truthbtold2910]

Warrior. His legacy was tarnished by playing for a handful of 500 or below football teams.

[@ReadEphesians612]

He was super great! "The Goal Line Stalker" Herschel Walker...🏈

[@erickthefantabulous1]

This is off the top of my head this is from a 61-year-old.Much better college career than pro career even though he did have some good seasons with the cowboys, and this is before I even watch this mini Documentary

[@Comeoffitman]

Hershel had his gym couch help him become an athlete and he taught him to become a legendary schooler two. He learned many things about mathematics and science and stuff like that on it

[@oppdawg6380]

There’s no question that Herschel Walker was the absolute best player in college football his freshman season .Everyone associated with college football in any capacity knew Walker should have definitely won the Heisman trophy hands down.Life ain’t so fair sometimes.

[@noelhernandez363]

Tarnished by playing in the USFL!!

[@paulnettles9109]

Would you say the same for Reggie White, Steve Young, and Jim Kelly?

[@Southprong59]

Herschel was the greatest college running back of all time and if he went straight to the NFL, he would have been one of the top 3 NFL backs of all time. Unfortunately, he played for some bad NFL teams, especially the Cowboys - just think how much better his stats would have been if the Cowboys had a good offensive line.

[@dougamundson6836]

The idiot Vikings traded for Walker. They said, 'We are a trapping team'' Then why in the HE!! did they trade for a I-Back? Walker was WASTED with the Vikings.

[@BGuitard689]

First time watching your videos. Excellent content and production. I will look for the other ones. Perhaps a couple of interesting facts… IIRC, in those days underclassmen were not eligible for NFL draft, so it was a huge deal for Herschel Walker to forego is senior year to sign a huge $ contract by those days standards. It was also the first year of the USFL, the caliber was not comparable to the NFL.

[@anthonyrichardson8355]

Well if it’s the pro football hof he should be in

[@louisphillips921]

Herschel Walker was an outstanding all around athlete I compare to the great Jim Brown! He should be in the top 20 NFL running backs of all times. He should already be inducted in the Football Hall Of Fame!

[@1320_ikimasho]

Fabulous person and player! He also goes around the country to speak to military.

[@kevinmixon7988]

He gotta 90+ run in the nfl as a power back

[@stevenhanson6057]

He was the catalyst for the Cowboys great success in the Nineties.

[@josephdiaz9640]

Hershel Walker , Bo Jackson, and Earl Campbell....Big boys 🏈

[@ericnovella]

We need more videos

[@bradywhatley970]

He deserves the Hall Of Fame. After the USFL folded, we saw that the best players from the USFL also domimated in the NFL. The USFL was no pasty league. His stats there were hard earned and when combined with his NFL stats, he is the all purpose yardage leader in pro football history

[@argelbargel7680]

The one thing that could stop him was a Vikings jersey.

[@JohnCollins-th8hm]

His freshman year at UGA, he was probably the best back ever. He digressed yearly after that,and was stil very good as a pro, but the way he ran his Freshman year is light years beyond anything he did after that.

[@thomasblankinship98]

Everyone put 8 in the box just to slow him down. Remember, UGA had a QB that couldn't throw or run. But we had Herschel !

[@pmo8135]

Legend of football

[@mrm-kj8ww]

Jim Kelly, Steve Young, Reggie White started out in the USFL. Some of the teams in that league could compete in today's NFL. Look at the Panthers, Giants, Raiders, Titans, Bears, Cardinals over the 3-5 seasons.

[@333RGreen]

GREAT PLAYER SHOULD BE IN THE HALL OF FAME!!!!

[@kireality]

He lived up to the hype and exceeded his draft status. He was a franchise back.

[@kevinkhoy7171]

He could Suit Up for the NFL Today!

[@reddeserted13]

He was great in the NFL too

[@davidmclane4035]

Greatest football player ever. Period.

[@jakebarnes1950]

Not even close.

[@jamiecrawford8133]

No. Barry Sanders.

[@thomasblankinship98]

Walker is the only RB in the triple 4000 club. 4000+ rushing , receiving , and kick returns. Not Sanders, Bo Jackson, or Emmit Smith.

[@Samrothstein87]

Hershel should really get a Super Bowl ring or two from the Cowboys. Without Johnson fleecing the Vikings for him the Cowboys never win a championship.

[@jjarnold220]

a true legend

[@brianmorgan4816]

The greatest all around athlete outside of Jesus Christ. I still wear one of his real jerseys on Saturdays.

[@ickystrashcan....anothersm9749]

Jesus wasn't anything special ... At sports ...walking on water Isnt a sport... Long distance sabbatical walking is an activity...not sport...

[@jakebarnes1950]

Did Jesus sign his jersey for you?

[@nealstampley1546]

This guy was awesome

[@TheMurph20]

His nfl carrer wasnt as dominant as was hoped but he had tons of carries between georgia and usfl. By the time he got to the nfl he had a lot of miles onnhis legs , butnqas the foundation of the cowboys buildong there 90s teams But him and Bo Jackson prolly 2 of the greatest genetic freaks of that era, or any era

[@WilliamBeckerreikiman]

no he by all means lived up to the hype, one thing you did not mention was that his MMA wins were at the age of 50+ yeah he definatly belongs in hall of fame as the greatest all time athlete

[@nbaave]

My idol

[@TheMarkOlsonShow]

John Madden said this is the only person that could’ve went pro after high school

[@bamaboi6845]

He's a even better 🦝

[@JRwrong]

I do know that he loves his old boss even now, Donald Trump.

[@wadepurvis3086]

The best EVER!

[@1istheloneliestnumber]

The attack ads against him have been permanently stuck in my head. "Herschel Walker has a history of violence." "Herschel Walker's violence has hurt so many people." That is what happens when the fucking PBS Frontlines guy of all people repeats the same thing to you over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again in a certain era.

[@Den-xq1fn]

Who do you think was more dominant Hershel or Bo?

[@keithpeterson6108]

No doubt he belongs in the hall of fame.

[@jim007]

He was a great football player, hopefully he stays out of politics

[@gregmulligan8702]

Herschel was all that!

[@PopsRacer61]

Oh yeah, he was definitely a BEAST ! I even used him in some video football games! Unfortunately, I think some of those hits to the head affected his rational thinking, when he entered the political arena. He should be a HOFamer though ! 🏈

[@madtownangler]

And then he wupped his old lady but that was one of his imaginary selves LOL.

[@ROBBYKeller1111]

Why does this video say he signed with Tampa Bay? He never played for Tampa Bay then they went on to show him with the Cowboys some more. That is just weird as hell.

[@ric9452]

Hey they should combine his stats !!!!

[@ChristopherHouse-dq9cr]

Dominator!

[@TayDays1128]

usfl tricked him into signing. He tried getting out to continue his senior year at georgia to no avail. Wouldve been a first round pick in 84.

[@jessem7556]

His daughter is a cheerleader at UCLA 😮

[@fizwin1]

Was my all-time fav. Still is. I really cannot believe he lost the senate race. WTH is wrong with ppl?

[@thomasblankinship98]

Dominion machines and stuffed drop boxes with more votes than registered voters.

[@timmyteaching]

The world will never understand Herschel

[@cburns3256]

Imagine him as a Senator.

[@jayclarke5466]

W out Walker, Dallas never wins 3 SB under Jimmy Johnson…the picks they got and players…changed the Dallas roster

[@1BarryMoore]

I think he really had to go to USF (financially).

[@bengray423]

Never plyed on a great team! With all those yrs. should have scored 12 tds a season! Sorry line and D.! -------------

[@gwarren6386]

They traded him for 15 players and all 16 of them did nothing

[@kevinmixon7988]

Hall of fammer

[@luisvilla799]

He was alright not Emmitt smith good

[@CCC303THIZZ]

His career was longer than the average life span of a black male in the hood That’s why he has so much yards If ya tells Davis could have kept his legs healthy He woulda blew out all stats He still has the most yards and TD’s in playoffs by a RB

[@Southprong59]

He was better than Emmitt - Emmitt was very good, but Emmitt played on a very good Cowboys team; Herschel played on a bad Cowboys team - and compare the total all purpose yards.

[@thomasblankinship98]

Emmit was nowhere near the back Walker was. He was a prima Donna. He was a good back in a great team. But it wasn't great until the cowboys traded Walker for 6-7 good players .

[@shanewoosley8303]

Agreed hall of fame. No useless didn't tarnish legacy however a lot of the teams he played on weren't that good.

[@Billy-ml1si]

Ask the 1980 teams he played unstoppable quick get my gun I will stop him my uncle said in Tennessee he was watching the game I said I don't think that will stop him it will blow your tv up

[@sydboski]

Just as big as Bo, but faster!!

[@jsigur157]

To my mind Walker had a high bar to jump in the NFL and didn't make it/ Maybe if he had played on a championship team, that would have done it

[@JoeyKO757]

If it wasn’t for that stupid trade to the Vikings

[@MauriceAnderson-wx5dr]

President President

[@CHAYCE18]

He's real good as long as he stay away from politics 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Southprong59]

Why, because he doesn't carry obummer's panties?

[@johnhaas3270]

He was overrated And I’m a diehard Cowboys fan. He was big, strong and fast but he didn’t have any running ability. He didn’t know how to stop on a dime and cut the other way. He also didn’t have ability to find the home

[@Drivethebeat]

He doesn't stack up at all That's why he went to the G League.. USFL. If it's in Battle of the network stars in running a 50-yard dash okay other than that A Great disappointment

[@fulcrumsee5968]

Uncle Herschel's Cabin

[@elgainus]

Generational athlete, PERIOD. 1: Deion Sanders 2:Hershel Walker 3: Bo Jackson Let the debating begin!!

[@thomasblankinship98]

Deion wasn't a RB. Didn't get hit every time he touched the ball. He was a DB. And punt returner. Totally different positions.

[@elgainus]

@@thomasblankinship98 Seen ESPN'S documentary on prime? Anyhoo respect your opinion💯
