Shane Falco is a good suggestion; he and Utah were very similar players. I'll have to think about this...

Paul Crewe is greater.

The original, not the shitty copy of him.

ACK!

If only Jason Street hadn't been paralyzed, he would have shown them both up.

The Internet's judgment? Utah wins...

No way Falco gets his number retired. He choked the Sugar Bowl, and since that was pre-BCS, that means that he didn't win the Big Ten, probably lost to Michigan and didn't make it to the Rose Bowl. Given his job before the players' strike, it looks like he failed to graduate also.

Not only did Johnny Utah beat SC in the Rose Bowl, but as it was pre-BCS, he obviously beat Michigan to win the Big Ten in order to get there. Also, let's not forget that he went to law school after his window closed, which means that he did graduate.

Big Difference.

Johnny Utah v. Shane Falco Perhaps the conclusion holds, but the context of that thread is hypothetically retiring Falco's jersey, which means the focus is properly on collegiate achievement. Your question is broader, encompassing professional accomplishment, as well. What did Utah do in The League? Falco's career was a Leafesque disappointment, by and large, but his triumph over Dallas at least deserves consideration.

That said, I'm not sure it's enough, given that it's a brief moment, however sparkling, in the midst of an abysmal pro career, and Utah's college resume is clearly superior to Falco's.

By the way, I propose a 48-hour ban on the first person to champion Johnny Walker for consideration.

If not for the knee injury, his career might have amounted to more than jack squat.
