BYU’s all-time touchdown machine still sets the bar
In the 2001 season, Luke Staley was a home-run RB for BYU, leading Division I in rushing touchdowns with 24 and posting 1,582 rushing yards at 8.1 yards per carry, while also adding 28 total touchdowns and 1,930 yards from scrimmage. His differentiator was easy: explosive efficiency with real receiving value, plus a nose for the end zone that changed games fast. The catch? His college peak was shortened by nagging injuries, so the profile is electric but comes with durability caution.
