Offical Darrell Thompson Thread

[Deputy Nutz]

Not a very good running back, decent out of the I formation but this is the NFL and the Pro formation with split backfield.

Loved him at Minnesota.

Thanks for the thread. I was wondering when one of these was going to pop up. Way to come through ... you were a great candidate.

Anyone got any Thompson pics? What's he doin' now?

Dude was an absolute stud in HS, but our coach was a worthless shitbag. Ran a power I and wing T against these huge d-lines from MPLS and StPaul. Got crushed once state rolled around.

he's aged a lot since he left the pack

Ran too high - stiff hips

Had trouble eluding QBs in the end zone....... Oh Crap

[Guiness]

Umm, missing the reference?

A very young and hyper Packer QB #4 tackled DT in the endzone after a touchdown - Jim Irwin went nuts on the radio. It's been replayed a bunch - great highlight

I get him mixed up with Mike Meade.

Lot of potential with this idea

The Official Eric Torkelson thread
The Official Terdell Middleton thread
How about the Official Paul Ott Carruth thread

Ahh the 70s and 80s

Re: Offical Darrell Thompson Thread

Parallel Darrell. Too bad it was parallel with the line of scrimmage and not the sideline.

or the official Dave Rollo thread.

or the official John Jurkovic thread.
