Congrats Frank Gore on gaining15,000 yards

[bobbydigius]

He is the first player that I can remember that went from the Hall of Very Good to a sure fire HOFer during his 30s at a position where 30 is basically the end of the line. Immortal.

A GOAT! A sure Hall of Fame inductee!! Congrats and Kudos to Frank Gore! A TRUE member of The U family! Love Frank's effort and example!

 

[grover]

He started the day 357 behind Barry Sanders. So with 109 more, he’s now only 248 behind. The guy is a human energizer bunny.

 

[Bipolarcane]

For sure, a cane legend.

 

[tcgrad1014]

For sure, a legend.

FIFY

 

[Carolinacane83]

Heart of a CANE

 

[HurricaneHauk]

With no ACLs

 

[WalkingLick]

True but Duke Johnson had more yards than him while in college so I'll take Duke over him any day

 

[YUMU]

Master of time!! A Cane legend!

 

[TemplarCane]

15,021 yards rushing
3,824 receiving
97 TDs

Sure HOF.

Would be cool if instead of going as a 49er, or other NFL team, he says he wants to go in as a HURRICANE!

Coker should have burned his red shirt for the Fiesta bowl. He was never goingto be around for 4 years...

Just like

One of my favorite Miami hurricanes of all time

Quite an an accomplishment. I don't see first time ballot, more likely years 3 to 5. He took a number of years more to get there and far more games with longer seasons. Either way, badass accomplishment and far more productive than I ever thought he would be with the early injuries in his career.

Gore is our Energizer Bunny. Has been producing in the NFL playing a tough position for years when most others have hung it up... the guy's a beast... God Bless him.

Come on man this is a Frank Gore thread!

Gore played as a true freshman in 01. Was he redshirted in 02?

His yards per carry is right there. He played more games but didn’t need more carries.

He’s got to get in first or second year. He will end up No.3 all time in rushing.

Yes. Iirc he blew his knee in the spring?

 

[SWFLHurricane]

Yes. Iirc he blew his knee in the spring?

Yup...He had won the starting RB spot over McGahee right before injury....
