Gregory Shea is listed as a RB in the draft history but Memphis must have made him a WR/KR because that's his listed HOF position. The Showboats drafted Shea 21st overall.

I know we used Shea as a RB and he is hands down the best KR I've ever had.

Love this kind of stuff, Greg. Glad to be back.

Paul Declue made the list? He was a major bust from Boogers Houston team. Got him dirt cheap

When I took over Houston, it was only 100m over the cap.

I wanted to do more with this, but just never got around to it. If anyone wants to add anything here, feel free.

WR Thomas Whitley has the most TDs in USFL history for the Tampa Bay Bandits in 154 games.

The Strang thing is he did it exclusively as a receiver since he doesn't have a single rush or return in his career. He had 8 straight seasons with double digit TD totals and only had 1 TD in 1993. He is 15 TDs ahead of the next player.

Whitley was a beast, wrote about him often in the blog. Sure fire HOFer upon retirement.

The single game rushing record is 305 yards held by Jose Medina of the Philadelphia Bell way back in 1974.

In fact, Medina rushed for 303 yards in another game in the 1974 season and is the only player to ever rush for over 300 yards in a game.

He ended up with 1,526 yards rushing for the season which is only the 12th best.

The single season rushing record belongs to RB Bruce Fine of the Chicago Blitz in the same 1974 season. He rushed for 2,056 yards, avering 5.4 yards per carry and is the only 2,000 yard rusher in league history.

Medina and Fine finished ranked 11th and 9th in rushing but neither made the Hall of Fame.
