When talking about the FSU fullback position, there’s no way we can’t mention Lonnie Pryor, who’s arguably the most productive fullback in FSU history.

He helped open holes for James Wilder Jr. and Devonta Freeman, the latter becoming the first 1,000-yard rusher since Warrick Dunn in 1996.

Pryor’s number was called often by Jimbo Fisher, totaling 165 offensive plays for 1,097 yards and 23 touchdowns while averaging 6.6 yards per play. The 2013 Orange Bowl MVP was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Jacksonville Jaguars.
