  • Ron Kramer: All-American
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 26, No. 1 (2004) Ron Kramer, All-American: Michigan Legend, Packer Great, Lion Hero By Jim Sargent Ronald John Kramer, one of the greatest athletes in the tradition-rich history of the University of Michigan, enjoyed a stellar career as the prototype tight end for several great Green Bay Packer teams during the Vince Lombardi era and for Kramer’s home state Detroit Lions. Total Football (1997) listed him as one of the 300 greatest players in the game’s history. A member of the College Football Hall of Fame, Ron is one of a handful of Michigan heroes—including halfback Tom Harmon and former President and center Gerald Ford—who have had their maize and blue jerseys retired. Kramer, who stood 6’ 3 ½” and weighed 220 as a senior in college, was an all-around athlete at Michigan. Competing from 1954 through 1957, he earned recognition as a football All-American in his junior and senior years, as MVP and top scorer on the Wolverine basketball team for three straight seasons, and as the team’s best shot putter and high jumper in track. In fact, big Ron is the last nine-letter performer at U-M. The Green Bay Packers, then a doormat in the National Football League, drafted Kramer first in 1957. The Packers also had a “bonus” choice, and they used it to select Notre Dame All-American back Paul Hornung. After coach Vince Lombardi joined Green Bay in 1959, he transformed the franchise, turning the Packers into an NFL powerhouse in the 1960s.

  • Henry Jordan
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 17, No. 2 (1995) HENRY JORDAN By Don Smith Such offensive superstars as Bart Starr, Jim Taylor and Paul Hornung basked in the limelight during the 1960s when the Green Bay juggernaut dominated the pro football scene. But the Packers of the dynasty years also can trace at least as much of their success to a rugged defensive corps that drained the effectiveness of enemy attacks. That defensive unit was recognized once again with the election of the late Henry Jordan, the Packers' long-term right defensive tackle, to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. He is the tenth Green Bay player from the 1960s to be elected. Jordan joins four of his defensive teammates -- Herb Adderley, Willie Davis, Ray Nitschke and Willie Wood -- in the Hall. He is the 19th long-term member of the Packers, who began play in the NFL in 1921, to become a Hall of Famer. Altogether, Jordan's NFL career spanned 13 seasons and 163 games from 1957 to 1969. The University of Virginia graduate was the fifth-round draft pick of the Cleveland Browns in 1957 but he didn't play regularly in either 1957 or 1958. Before the 1959 season, Green Bay acquired Jordan and gave the Browns a fourth- round draft choice in return. It was a trade that Cleveland would regret for years. Jordan arrived in Green Bay at the same time that a highly- touted new coach, Vince Lombardi, came on the scene. The two were destined to share in the glory years of the Packers in the immediate future.

  • October 7, 1962 It Looked Like They Were Right
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 26, No. 6 (2004) 11-3 and Forever Second By Doug Warren 1962 . it should have been the Lions’ year. For two seasons, the Lions had been on the heals of the Green Bay Packers, working toward the moment when they would finally lay waste to the growing Lombardi legend and claim a little glory of their own. In 1962, the NFL Championship was clearly in the sights of the Detroit Lions. The only thing that stood in their way was the Green Bay Packers, and a cold and muddy afternoon in Green Bay the Lions . literally . let it slip away. The previous two seasons, George Wilson’s club had finished as runner-up to the Packers in the NFL’s tough Western Division. They did so without the services, at least in Wilson’s mind, of a top-flight quarterback. Tobin Rote, the hero of the Lions’ championship run of 1957, had departed in early 1960, leaving the Lions with Earl Morrall as their only experienced QB. Coach Wilson hadn’t been satisfied with the progress of Morrall since acquiring him in the Bobby Layne deal in October 1958. Therefore, Wilson decided to make a trade with the Cleveland Browns for Jim Ninowski. Jim had been a backup to Milt Plum in Cleveland upon joining the Browns in 1958 as a rookie out of Michigan State. With Plum’s steady progress in Paul Brown’s offense, Ninowski became expendable. During 1960 and ‘61, neither Ninowski nor Morrall would impress Wilson enough to claim the Lions’ top-job as their own.
