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!

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.

Dave Preston, played about the same time Archie played at OSU, I would take Preston over Archie. MUCH
