    Tim Tebow isnt in the top 100 college players of all time. he will never take a snap under center in the NFL. its seems to me that to most of the people who answer these types of questions .... "all time" means the last 5 years.

    does ANYBODY on this site have a clue about the history of college football ???? my goodness !!!!!!! Charles White, Barry Sanders, LaDanian Tomlinson, Archie Griffin, Marcus Allen, Billy Simms, Tommy Frazier, Ronnie Lott, Kenny Easley, Earl Campbell, Tim Brown ..... seriously .... i could spend the next 30 minutes rolling off names who had better college careers than Tebow.

    Marcus Allen holds the NCAA record with eight consecutive 200 (thats TWO hundred) yard games. oh ... my bad. most of you children probably dont even know who Allen is, might think he is a QB. he was a RB, thats 200 yards RUSHING, for eight straight games. please .... please ..... tell me what individual stats does Tebow have that compares to that ???? while youre at it ..... Barry Sanders 37 rushing TDs and 2800 rushing yards in a single season. Tebow is nothing compared to the all time greats. heck, he isnt even close to being the best player in the University of Florida's history. i would not put him in the Florida top 15. they had some bum that played there a while back, but since it was more than 5 years ago most of you never heard of him. his name is Emmitt Smith. Google him sometime, you might learn something.

    To the people saying if Tim Tebow produces another NC, and another Heisman that he will be the best college football player of all time I beg to differ.

    By that logic Archie Griffin is the current best college football player of all time, I've never heard anyone suggest that before.

    There are a whole lot of players with multiple NC in college. NC are more a product of the team than the individual. (Tommy Frazier, Lawrence Phillips)

    Tim Tibow's name will go right up their among the greatest players in college ball history, but I find it hard to compare people at different positions. I also don't consider Tebow even the best college QB of all time, and stats wise he isn't.

    I'd like to know your logic behind a kid still in college being the greatest player in the NFL.

    Bambam: I think his total under center this season was a whopping 2 times.

    If Tim Tebow wins a Heisman and a National Championship in 2009 then he will hands down be the greatest college football player of all time. As for being the best in NFL history, we'll just need to wait and see.

    No. Only to people with very short memories.

    He's good, but come on. The best ever?

    Why does everything have to be a superlative? Why can't people just appreciate a good player and leave it at that?

    No how can you compare him to Tom Brady or Peyton Manning

    Players that come from college tend to realize that the NFL is a much harder league with much better teams

    These players are the elite individuals who have something special. Maybe in college, but the NFL is a whole different story.

    he could be the best college player ever. Id wait till next year an see what happens. I mean if he wins the Heisman, he is definetly in the discussion. He is a class act of a person also.
