I don't think it's that much of a stretch to brag about TWO Redds, actually.
Ronnie was a hell of a WR coming out of the Szlachcic years.

my vote would be that Omar is the best QB in BG history, that Sharon is the best WR in BG history, and that Pope is in the upper echelon but not our greatest back of all time.
4th & 13 on PU 32yd line.. 56,000 fans up on their feet screaming, i held my breath the entire play trying to make as little noise as possible.. wouldnt u know Sharon would make the biggest touchdown catch in the history of BG Football, FALCON UP!
It is hard to argue across different eras/systems about who is the best at each position. But I would state that I think the GROUP of Omar, Pope, Sharon, Sanders are the best GROUP of offensive weapons BGSU has ever put on the field.
