Just heard that George Izo ND quarterback from the late 1950's has passed on. Old timers like me remember him well! Unfortunately, he played during the Joe Kuharich coaching tenure when ND was not very good. George was one of the few bright spots - a big, strong-arm passing QB. I remember listening to the Saturday afternoon games on the radio which for a young kid was a real treat back then. George was the number 2 pick in the first round of the 1960 NFL draft. He played seven years in the NFL. He was 84 years old and my prayers go out to his family.
