Who was better then our #47. Thats an odd number and surprised any one else would be that great that had that number.

47 is not a very common number in general . But Irvin is an all time great so Idk who else would be ahead of him.

3 week free trial with no strings attached. No better time to make an account there. List is too big for me to copy/paste. That's not allowed here.

The legendary "Bennie Oosterbaan" of Michigan. 2 sport All-American in the 20s!

These names were all listed ahead of Irvin:

David Pollack, Georgia; A.J. Hawk, Ohio State; Chris Hudson, Colorado; Nick Eddy, Notre Dame; ****y Maegle, Rice;

Pollack, Hawk and Irvin are all pretty legendary.
