Larry Johnson was a Penn State force in 2002: 2,087 rushing yards and 20 TDs
In the 2002 season, Larry Johnson was a workhorse back for Penn State, piling up 2,087 rushing yards on 271 carries with 20 rushing touchdowns and adding 41 catches for 349 yards and 3 scores. His differentiators were elite volume, big-play production, and true three-down value as a runner and receiver, making him more than a stat-sheet back. If you want a featured RB who can carry an offense and punish defenses repeatedly, he was an obvious high-end fit.
