1947 AP Athlete of the Year. 1947 Heisman Trophy winner. Three time National champion (1943, 1946, 1947). Lettered in football, baseball, basketball, and track. Two time unanimous All American (1946, 1947). He was a two way player for Leahy. And if all that wasn't enough, his college career was interrupted by WWII in which he served in the Navy chasing down German subs.
