      Robert Smith is arguably the greatest NFL RB ever from Ohio State. He only played 8 year and had 1500+ his last year. If he would have kept going another 5 years he’s likely a HOF inductee. He also forgot Pepe Pearson who has one of the ten greatest single seasons in school history with over 1400 yards.
