@yamofaka , he was actually from louisana! and some how this great talent was overlooked by every major college program in the nation, and he was even overlooked by the heisman trophy voters.
@waterboytroy89 True. I was just commenting on the overall fact that SDSU should be a better program than they are now with the amount of talent in So Cal. They could be the TCU of California.
Grew up watching this guy, one of my all time fav runners in college....holy smokes, reminds me alot like Tommie Frazier, all about the battle field and not being a drama queen behind a mic...totally got robbed of the Heisman! Welcome to the club SDST lol...GO BIG RED
Well he's from New Orleans, and in high school he played QB, RB, WR and CB. LSU and the entire SEC wanted him to play cornerback, he wanted to play running back. So SDSU gave him an opportunity.
Best all purpose running back ever. very dangerous. 1 of only two backs to post 1000 yards rushing and receiving in the same season. first ballot hall of famer for sure.
That's the word right there, suttle. That is why he is not coming up in the conversation properly. He was suttle with his power and suttle with his speed. Does not even sound right but that is what it was. He really did make it look easy.
he killed SC and miami and miami was a powerhouse. gino set the record against sdsu but marshall ran wild. livin out west i remember the thing was marshall or garrison (hearst) i knew marshall was better. he shoulda got the heisman and im a cane fan.
LSU wanted him to play CB hes from new orleans lol lol LSU also could have had ed reed but they wanted him to play KR hmmmm i wonder who was the RB when marshall was around and who the saftey was when ed was around lol lol im sure they are not in the nfl both of them are hall of famers LSU is the dumbest school in the country.
the only reason gino won it was cuz miami was unbeaten and #1 and marshall played miami that year and didnt do much and they lost 63-17 and torretta threw for a record 485 yards in that game so you know how the voters saw it.
Marshall got robbed of that Heisman. I'm a Hurricane fan and I'll be the first to tell you Gino Toretta did not deserve that trophy over Marshall. I'm gladd he got his Super Bowl Ring though.
I recall back in '93, after football practice, went over to a friend's place and SDSU was playing BYU (I think). SDSU has the ball and it's 4th and 10. Single-back formation, and the announcer says: "it's 4th and 10, you know who they're going to give the ball to". Faulk then runs for 40 yards. My reaction: WTF? After watching previous footage of him, I clearly understood the reasoning behind the announcer's comment/claim.
Yes sire, Marshall was robbed of the Heisman that year. I'm a Hurricane fan and I'll be the first to tell you Gino didn't deserve it over Marshall. Marshall was THE dominant player every time he stepped on the field, no questions. At least he got his Super Bowl Ring.
kevin faulk told me i no not same person tho but when he was in highschool he would run threw the wood and dodge the tree's jump over the little bushes just to get usta like dodges stuff. then he wud take a punching bag n put it in a swingseat n duck tape it n he wud run into it to practice trucking ppl. n he wud liek run up hills of sand at like the landfill n stuff sounds crazy
the only bad thing is in the NFL ppl dont block liek that anymore the linemen will go like 5 yards n block n there like screw it ur on your own from here. those guys wud go all they way down the feild u wud just see people falling outa no where. from a cut block 20 yards down feild
The best Faulk run I have ever seen. SDSU played Minnesota in 1993. Faulk runs up the middle and the only person that could have stopped his run was a Minn. LB. They were literally 3 feet from each other. Faulk gives the shake and bake. The Minn LB dove for a tackle, we're talking about body parallel to the ground, one way and Faulk goes the other way. At the end of the play, Faulk ran for about 20-30 yards. It was amazing to watch Faulk at SDSU.
Does anyone have the clip where Marshall Faulk was picked up and slammed by a UCLA defensive player while Faulk tried to break through the line? It was quite a sight from the stands at Qualcomm stadium.
To see this shit LIVE was MEZMERIZING....it looked like he was running around people who were standing there....the other players at times didn't look like they were playing, just watching.....
Can someone please tell me how Gino Torretta got the Heisman over Faulk? I would love to pose the question to every east coast sports writer that voted Torretta, one of the most biased decisions ever!
I was there for almost all of those home games. Marshall is still the best College player I've ever seen (in person or on TV). You knew that on any given play he could break it and score. That made every play exciting.
