Marion Barber III

University of Minnesota: Being the son of an NFL running back brings a certain level of expectation, but following that same player’s footsteps to college is a whole new ballgame. Marion Barber III picked up where his father left off collegiately, piling up yardage for the Minnesota Golden Gophers. His father was second on the Gophers’ career rushing touchdown list (with 34), until he surpassed him with one final score (bringing him to 35 and dropping dear old Dad to third place).
