[Spur]

I went with Matt C.

[khosk]

Matthew C for me too.

[cockyhoskins]

Matt C was the last TE that saw any semblance of participation beyond being a fifth lineman

[Spurrier 'Em]

Wheres the love for Hart Turner??? He made some big plays in his time at Carolina...I think he's in NFL Europe now

[bigpoppacock]

You need to add Chris Corley to the list. He was on the 1984 team.

[mickeyrivers]

EXCELLENT idea for a poll, hoskins. i tried to do something similar a while back on theinsiders board but it never got off the ground.

[MDCox]

Jay Saldi should win this poll. Also went on to play TE in the pros and was well know player for the Cowboys in the 70's late 80's? maybe. Is Matt C still at the TE position?

[SpicyChicken]

How about Trafford? Wasn't he involved in two game winning plays?

[Jerrybeeds]

I guess I'm young, but I've never heard of any of those guys.

[morgan n' 7]

I went with Willie Scott. I never saw him play in person, but i've got a video with some of his highlights(Gamecock Glory:The 1980's). He was a great receiver. I don't think we've had a receiving TE like him since. :football:

[oburg]

I voted for Willie Scott. By far the best TE the cocks have ever had. He had all the tools. He also had some big catches durung his time at USC.

[uscjethro]

this poll I agree with thus far. I did like Matt Campbell also.

[MDCox]

I just don't remember Willie Scott for some reason. I guess I am too young. I can tell you though we have not had a decent TE or used one decently in two decades. Miami for instance has had about 5 super duper TEs in that span that everyone on this board has heard of. I bet a fan from another team could not name one TE from USC.

[TaterHater1984]

(Gamecock Glory:The 1980's).
I have it as well...But I went with other...I'm a Hart Turner fan myself...

[Ol' Bald Coach]

Willie Scott...speed ,size, and would catch the ball if it touched his hands.

[Cock-Tail Time]

Its gotta be Willie Scott...he could do it all.

Go Cocks

:cocky:

[gococsk10]

I chose Willie because 1) He was a great receiver and blocker
2) I went to Newberry High with him

:football:

[kickenChicken]

yet again we leave off another Player hart turner

[bgallup]

Mathew Campbell

[cockyPI1]

i vote for Hart Turner, no question about it..

[Sea Bass]

I had a tough debate between Scott and Campbell. I guess it isn't that close to everyone though. I ended up voting Scott but am shocked at the difference between the two.

[SangareeCrew]

Chalk me up as a vote for Rod Trafford.

[RW13]

Andy Boyd, 2 rec for 2 TDs, and loves the history channel....

[Dr. Gonzo]

Willie Scott...easy.

[CATBIRD]

My vote is for whoever was the starting tight end when George Rogers was running the ball.

[morgan n' 7]

My vote is for whoever was the starting tight end when George Rogers was running the ball. That was Scott.

[cht4usc]

No brainer Willie Scott.

[SlimUSC]

I think Hart had one too many drops during his last couple of years to be considered in this poll. Just because they played more recently doesn't make them better...Willie Scott is by far the best TE we've ever had..ask anyone who has been a fan long enough to remember him.

holla..

[Love Boat Captain]

No contest...Willie Scott. Not only did he have great hands, size and speed but he could block. I'll never forget Willie shutting down Hugh Green from Pitt in the bowl game. I think Hugh Green came in second for the Heisman voting as a DE that year.

[doccock]

Some of you guys kill me. A TE catches 2 passes and makes a block and you vote him the best ever at the position.

Willie Scott is the best we ever had. Here's a brief recap:

He was 4 year letterman at TE at Carolina.Played in the East West Shrine game. Was a first round draft choice(#14 overall).He was an NFL star, not just a player. He's also in the USC Hall of Fame.

Sorry but no one else is even close.
doc

[cockyhoskins]

Willie Scott was a first round draft pick. There is no doubt he was the best.

[Big"C"]

I went other...Dewayne Chivers. He's a friend so he'll always get my vote!

[JRob]

To me it's a toss-up between Marty Woolbright and Willie Scott.

[BlackMagic84]

No doubt and bar none......it's got to be Willie Scott.

I mean he was a 1st round NFL draft pick.


There really shouldn't be any other choice with this IMO.

[rice~is~nice4]

I put Campbell.:football:

[bktracker]

I gotta go with Matt Campbell!! He was once a good friend of mine.I just haven't seen him in a long while.

[CockNBlythewood]

Went with Scott on this one. No doubt about it.

[gococksdc777]

Scott, no doubt, i never saw him on tv buy some of the internet videos ive seen him in are great

[Skybo]

Scott was a great one !! HE"S number !

[joshuabatterycreekte]

I say Hart I learned my stuff from watching the best Gamecock TE.:football:

[Colatown]

I don't see how it could be Saldi, he barely caught a pass at Carolina. I think it was Scott but why isn't J.R. Wilburn in the poll? He finished Carolina in the mid 60s so most people on hear don't remember him but he had a good career here and played a few years with the Stellers when they really sucked.
