Pardon my ignorance. I know Walker had a long list of accomplishments prior to coming to UAB, but what were his accomplishments at UAB? Honest question.

RE: Greatest Ever at UAB
Some of you are really watering it down with only the second class.

My vote would be
Steve Mitchell
Carlos Williams
Harry Walker
Roddy White
Jim Hilyer

I normally would not have someone on the list yet until they retired, so those like Roddy, Graeme, etc. would not be included right now.

Hackney should get in before Webb, in my opinion.

Webb accomplished more individually, but Hackney took UAB further
