wayne gallman

imo, wayne gallman is one of the best backs in the history of this fine university. i have seen plenty (priester, mack, flowers, allen, zachery, spiller, mcswain, austin, davis, etc.) wayne gallman is a ring of honor player. he did everything he was asked and was often overlooked by media and fans due to star power on team. if not for wayne and the defense in 2014, the year could have been much worse. his 2015 speaks for itself. and 2016, well, he was instrumental and one of the catalysts of our run. and imho, he made the play of the game in the national championship:

First-and-10 on the Alabama 39, 1:41
bama rolled into a 4-1-6 look rather than the 3-2-6 front they’d been using, and evans takes advantage. he gets a great jump outside on LT Mitch Hyatt, but the ball is out so quick, it doesn’t matter. secondly, clemson’s attempted hook-and-ladder play gets RB Gallman popped in the backfield by nickel Brown, but he shakes off the hit and managed positive yardage.
like clemson’s fourth-and-one call early in the game, this depends on a good block by TE Leggett that was not forthcoming. however, Gallman ran hard all night and manages to keep clemson from second-and-long.

if wayne gets tackled in backfield, the whole drive changes. momentum, play calling, loss of yardage, bama amped up, etc. not to mention the blocks he absorbed for dw. and he torched usuck in 3 games. wayne gallman was the truth - and we will miss him

I for one am glad you are stopping. You are one of the most ignorant posters ever. You obviously think very highly of your own opinion, unlike the rest of us - RockHillTiger

Good post.
As the Op has said, 2015 speaks for itself. I've said it before and will mention again, Terry A. was a big part of developing Gallman from good to great. I talked with Terry about it a few years ago just before the 2015 season. He said that he had seen a lot of potential in Gallman as I noted that he was a dynamic runner and I liked his hard running. Allen said yea "he runs angry " and " I like that". He said that Gallman has " a lot to work with " but a lot of work to do. Well, he did. Broken records in 2015 and all. It was a short visit that day, but remember meeting a great Clemson RB as he was on his way to teaching another great Clemson RB how to elevate his game. They didn't call him
" The Wayne Train " because he was soft, yet just the opposite. Playing through cuts, bleeding and battering. He is one tough runner. Broke Priester's single season rushing yards record, and still holds it. We've had a lot of great backs at CU & Gallman was one of those for many reasons.
