Ndamukong Suh named college football’s greatest player of the 21st century
A former Nebraska Cornhusker was named college football’s greatest player of the 21st century. According to ESPN’s Bill Connelly, Ndamukong Suh has been ranked the No. 1 college football player since 2000.
Suh played at Nebraska from 2005 to 2009. His senior season is one of the legendary seasons in college football.
During that year, he played in 14 games and recorded 85 tackles, 20.5 for loss, and 12.0 sacks. He was a finalist for the 2009 Heisman trophy and was the first defensive player named the Associated Press College Football Player of the Year.
Connelly had high praise for Suh’s famous 2009 season.
I realize we don’t give Heismans to defensive players, but it’s still utterly inexcusable that he didn’t win the Heisman that year. Best player of the 2000s and one of the best of all time.
Suh was drafted second overall by the Detroit Lions in the 2009 NFL draft. He’s also played for Miami, Los Angeles, Tampa Bay and Philadelphia.
