I have the utmost respect for what they do and how much they sacrifice for their students. I’d like to especially thank Professor Daryl Moen for working closely with me and pushing me to perform the best research possible. I definitely need to thank the former creative director at Gannett’s Des Moines Design Studio, Nathan Groepper, for giving me an opportunity to work there. My team leaders at the studio, Sean McKeown-Young and Jeremy Gustafson, were particularly awesome in pushing me to be a better and more thoughtful designer. Lastly, I’d like to thank my parents, Janet and Daniel Brisson for their love and support. I would not be here without them — not just in the literal sense, but also because their judgment and beliefs have driven me in probably everything I do. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS . ii LIST OF TABLES . iv ABSTRACT . v KEYWORDS . vi Chapter 1.

The compilation of the All-America roster was supervised by a panel of analysts working in large part with the historical records contained in the files of the Dr. Baker Football Information Service. The roster consists of only those players who were first-team selections on one or more of the All-America teams that were selected for the national audience and received nationwide circulation. Not included are the thousands of players who received mention on All-America second or third teams, nor the numerous others who were selected by newspapers or agencies with circulations that were not primarily national and with viewpoints, therefore, that were not normally nationwide in scope. The following chart indicates, by year (in left column), which national media and organizations selected All-America teams. The headings at the top of each column refer to the selector (see legend after chart).

Well, here you go. The national crisis is over. The annual post-Super Bowl football withdrawal, a seemingly incurable malady that impacts millions every year the second weekend in February and lasts weeks and months, is now in the past thanks to The Alliance of American Football, the creation of Charlie Ebersol, a television and film producer, and Bill Polian, a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. They have the football game plan, the business model with multiple big-money investors and a national television contract with CBS to succeed where other spring leagues have failed. The idea is not to compete with the National Football League. That’s a failed concept. The Alliance will complement the NFL and satisfy the insatiable appetite of football fans who otherwise would be suffering from a long period of depression.
