Ritzmann was a starter, captain, 12 sacks, scored 10 points, made 2 nfl rosters, first European to make a nfl roster. Not shabby.

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

#27 is owned by Al Wilson..

#74 Tiny Richardson. Before his career is over will break school record in pancakes and will be top 5 pick in NFL.

I think you could also add Ainge #10. BTW, I didnt know this about Tony Robinson...

In 1987, during the strike, Robinson played in one game for the Redskins after Ed Rubbert was injured. He led the Redskins' replacement players to a 13-7 win over a Dallas Cowboys team that featured a number of players who had crossed the picket lines during the players' strike. His role was loosely portrayed by Keanu Reaves in the 2000 film The Replacements

Casey Clausen #7. 2nd in passing behind Peyton


Agree - Clausen is probably the most underrated QB for the Vols in the last 30 years. He was lights out on the road, which is so hard in this conference.

I have to agree with you here. Watching him run out of the pocket made me cringe, but he kept his composure 99% of the time in the worst situations.

Aside from just looking like Val Kilmer, "Ice Man" was appropriate for him.

Without a doubt, but I just thought he deserved to be mentioned. Appreciate your consideration and the addition. Great idea BTW. Thanks for posting the list.

This list is really for the countdown 99-1. There is another thread from last summer that someone was asking for this same list...it was never finished.

OP starts a thread and immediately contradicts the point of said thread with multiple people for the first listing. So........who is the best player?

I'm confused - this thread is called the best player for each number.. Single player - so why are there multiples on several numbers? And especially numbers like 14 and 92 where its undisputed?
