Happy Birthday Rodney Hampton!

One of my all time favorite Dawgs! From his freshman year of being a little skinny running back breaking out of a pack of Clemson Tigers in Death Valley for a TD, to playing in Knoxville with torn cartilage in his knee (imagine that), to making some of the most miraculous 3-4 yard gains even during his junior (last) season with absolutely NO blocking - that Dawg gave his all on every snap. I remember the first time he carried the ball as a pro in a pre-season game for the NY Giants, he took it about 90 yards for a TD. Yep, for the first time ever, I had to become a fan of a NY team while he was there. Rodney became a beast to tackle and had a very modest, consistent pro career.
