One of the last things I did for GatorsWire was a re-ranking of the top 50 Gator football players of all time.
The top 5 were easy, but the rest were not.
So, here on the High Five, I will give you a little of both, the top 5 and the five who I can’t believe I left out. It was my list so there is nobody else to blame.
Top 5
No. 5 – Wilber Marshall
No. 4 – Lomas Brown
No. 3 – Percy Harvin
No. 2 – Danny Wuerffel
No. 1 – Tim Tebow
I had a long debate with myself over Wuerffel and Tebow and even thought about Percy as No. 1.
The 5 I left out
Joe Haden
Steve Tannen
Jack Jackson
Ricky Nattiel
Ellis Johnson
Had this been a top 100, they obviously would have been included. If I did this list all over again, they might make it. It’s not easy to wrap up 118 years of Florida football in 50 players.
