Elvis Grbac and Desmond Howard
It was a scrimmage at YSU, I missed a tackle on Desmond and he must have went 60 or 70 yards
I played (and against Rocket Ismail) but wrestling was my best sport. Wrestled in college. I’m a
good asset if in a fight!! Lol.
QB and LB. Main sport was baseball and played through college (D-1)

You are correct. We beat Virginia with Ralph Sampson one year but we also had a intramural football
team on the island.
I spent time working at Tripler. Punahou had a very good HS FB team as I recall.
I lived on the windward side & would take the Pali in everyday.
You sure you weren't a drawback?

I played with Bob Thomas at McQuaid Jesuit HS. He went on to ND and won the Nat'. Champ over 'Bama..
I went to a Technical Institute and played with women in my dorm.
Link: McQuaid Jesuit
I knew you were from Rochester from posts over the years. I grew up in Rush Henrietta
Moved to Oklahoma between my 8th grade and Freshman year of high school. Was headed to Aquinas. That absolutely broke my heart but all things considered love Oklahoma and could never look back and regret it. Had lots of buddies go to McQuaid. Great school. As far as High School football goes there was only one Catholic school in Rochester.
My Father went to Aquinas before WWII. Still a formidable football school...
...and I believe that they are the only H.S. in America to have a boxing program. (they fight each other)
Good to hear from ya'.
GO IRISH!
Re: My Father went to Aquinas before WWII. Still a formidable football school...
Thanks for that info. I would assume that your dad was there in the true heyday when they were traveling to play teams. Never knew about the boxing. Cool Stuff!
My 2 older sisters graduated from Mercy, and my mom was a Nazareth grad.
My Aunt is a Naz grad. Great school. My buddy and I, while at McQuaid, dated Mercy girls...
They were smart, well-mannered and attractive.
Miss those days when reminded of them.
You and I share some fond memories.
All the best.
Played against Gary Diminick (KR-PR '73 ND) in HS. Gary beat me twice for long TDs. Dude was fast!!!

High school OLB, ND Interhall OG / DE
Interhall football at ND might have been the most fun I’ve ever had participating in sports, and my dorm team stunk. I loved every minute of it.

So based on the replies above you are a bunch of couch potatoes. As I expected

Bro, you're about 400 donuts shy of a healthy weight.
If these guys are couch potatoes, you're a couch butternut squash.
Running on the field at night, the smell of wet grass, the people in the stands. You will never know
that. It’s special and most of you are unaware of that feeling.
Our high school games were mostly at night. Typically Fridays once in a while Saturdays.

Sounds like you got pancaked quite a bit. That explains the smell of wet grass.

Re: Running on the field at night, the smell of wet grass, the people in the stands. You will never know
Nothing like a nightgame and taking the first 2 KOs back to the house and having the crowd on their feet holding their breathe at every touch.
Actually, I played LB early on until I stopped growing...
I was good for a while. Unfortunately (or fortunately actually), my HS is really, really good wrt football. I never would have played by the time I was a senior. I did, however, make the varsity basketball team. I was a good point guard, but again, ended up sitting the bench.
I still have my HS binder playbook from 1971. Never turned it in though we had to sign for it.
