Definitely like Vilipiano and Preston picks

Who was Bob Reynolds?

Offensive left tackle that played for 12-13 years in the NFL. Played at BG in the 60's, then for St Louis and Patriots in the NFL. I believe he was All- Pro a few times but not sure.
Too old for you! ;-)

Bernie Casey WR - #9 pick overall....highest EVER pick for a BG player. Drafted by 49er's, then went to Rams in latter part of career.... also EXCELLENT artist (not to mention a decent actor for quite a few yrs.)..

........also the alternate to the Olympic team as a high hurdler! :supz:
I would have included him too, but I thought the other three had more impact on their professional teams.

PJ Pope...best RB I've ever seen at BG. I didn't get to see Dave Preston, Paul Miles or Bernie Casey play so for me it's PJ. Running, blocking or catching outta the backfield, he was the complete back.
