I always thought Kevin Simon #5 was pretty good

Arian Foster HAS to be on this list

Cedric Houston and and Denarius Moore are notable players worth considering as well

Simon is good...but there have been some great #5's

I'll add Foster...but he is going up against my Fav player ever, Al Wilson

Feel like I need to throw out Justin Harrell for #92 as well. While there's no doubt who the best to ever wear that number was, Justin was/is a true VFL. Who can forget him postponing surgery to repair his ruptured bicep, so he could play Florida for the last time and try to bring a victory home for the Vols? When #92 was retired in 2005, Reggie's widow wanted Justin to be able to wear it until he finished his career, because she knew that's what Reggie would have wanted. I am biased, because I grew up with Justin, but I hope other Vol fans remember him as being a true VFL.

Denarius Moore #6 - is 6th all-time in school receiving yards and probably has the most 200 yard receiving games of any player in one season. Also had the worst series of QBs in team history throwing to him

Montario Hardesty #2 - 8th all time in school history in rush yards despite spending a large portion of his career injured. He literally carried Lane Kiffin on his back for a season and was the heart and soul of the Vols team that year

Arian Foster #27 - Second all-time leading rusher in school history

I will add Justin Harell, but Retired Numbers are a real trump card.
