    Penn State Running Backs

    I know there have been many great Penn State running backs but who have actually been successful in the NFL??

    curt warner-seahawks, 3 time pro bowler

    after that, no

    Matt Suhey was a hell of a fullback for walter payton and sam gash was a terrific fullback for terrell davis.

    Curt Warner the running back for the seahawks in the 80s(on the same team as Largent and Dave Kreig) played tailback at penn state.

    The quarterback Kurt Warner played at Northern Iowa.

    Yeah I knew Kurt. I just couldn't remember Curt. Did he play on the 79 Penn State team. I believe that was the year Penn State, and Bama played in the Sugar Bowl.

    Re: Penn State Running Backs

    He played at Penn State from 79-82, so I doubt he played much in 79 because Joe Pa hated playing freshman up until last year. He had a 1400 yard rookie season with the seahawks in 83. He was often injured and thats when they brought in John L Williams to help carry the load.

    Franco Harris and Lydell Mitchell played in the same Penn State backfield in the early 70's. Both had solid pro careers, especially Franco.

    Re: Penn State Running Backs

    My prediction (barring injury of course) Larry Johnson will be break the single season rushing record this year.
