The most dominant performance I’ve ever seen by a RB at any level, bar none.

Tony Vinson rushed for 364 yards (if memory serves) against Bucknell in 1993, though that game had fewer repercussions for us and the competition was weaker than Eastern Illinois. Still, it was an impressive display that I never expected to see again. And then came Terrence.

Tony was 6-2, 225 and was a track star at Purdue. He was a tremendous athlete and unstoppable at this level. The O-line was also outstanding back then. I think we would have done great against the CAA but T-West was just at another level, especially in his junior year when he became a better all-around player.
