There have been many great Hurricanes...

[terdferguson]

Tie for me. Jerome Brown and Mike Irvin

He said pick one. I'd go with Mike Irving.

 

[kryptonite]

Me. Clearly.

 

[Liquidstoke]

The Playmaker boooyie....

[NZ Cane]

Hard to believe but they were both defensive linemen in college. Look at the difference in size. Difference in the game between early '60's and mid-'80's.

Overall its gotta be

Howard Schnellenberger

Because he showed us the way....taught us what it took to reach the TOP....and gave us the heart of a Champion

A player?

I'd go with Michael Irvin...there was NO QUIT in that man...NONE...True Cane thru and thru

 

[Ethnicsands]

It’s clearly Ted Hendricks. They named the position award after him. 3x All American, 2x First Team AA, UPI Lineman of the year, CFB HOF as a DE; NFL HOF as a LB; 9x all pro, 4 SB titles. NFL all decade for both 70s and 80s. GOAT.

Next 4: Brown, Irvin, Reed, Lewis

After more thought i believe you may be right . He really should get credit for taking us to the top and giving us our swag

[nycane]

Jerome Exemplifies everything about UM...
The Architect of Swagger....

younger fans dont remember Jerome, Winston, and them guys.
Michael Irvin, Testaverde, i mean we had some greats Canes in 80s and early 90's.

You Sir are obviously extremely intelligent

My favorite football player of all time, both at the college and pro level, is Ed Reed.

[Sandman211]

That dude is probably the most pure leader the U ever had... at least in the past 30yrs that I can think of.

Not surprised it is so difficult to name just one. If I said name your favorites each thread would be a page.
