  • 82Nd Annual Convention of the AFCA
    82nd annual convention of the AFCA. JANUARY 9-12, 2005 * LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY President's Message It was an ordinary Friday night high school football game in Helena, Arkansas, in 1959. After eating our pre-game staples of roast beef, green beans and dry toast, we journeyed to the stadium for pre- game. As rain began to fall, a coach instructed us to get in a ditch to get wet so we would forget about the elements. By kickoff, the wind had increased to 20 miles per hour while the temperature dropped over 30 degrees. Sheets of ice were forming on our faces. Our head coach took the team to the locker room and gave us instructions for the game as we stood in the hot showers until it was time to go on the field. Trailing 6-0 at halftime, the officials tried to get both teams to cancel the game. Our coach said, "Men, they want us to cancel. If we do, the score will stand 6-0 in favor of Jonesboro." There was a silence broken by his words, "I know you don't want to get beat 6-0." Well, we finished the game and the final score was 13-0 in favor of Jonesboro. Forty-five years later, it is still the coldest game I have ever been in. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] No one likes to lose, but for every victory, there is a loss. As coaches, we must use every situation to teach about life and how champions handle both the good and the bad. I am blessed to work with coaches who care about each and every player.

  • 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.

  • John M. Morrow, Jr., Sma ’52
    JOHN M. MORROW, JR., SMA ’52 John Melville Morrow, Jr., was born in Port Huron, MI, in 1933 and entered Staunton Military Academy (SMA) from Ann Arbor, MI, in the fall of 1951 as a postgraduate after graduating from Ann Arbor High School. He played varsity football and basketball, and was a member of the Blue Knights (trombone.) He completed his studies at SMA in 1952 and entered the University of Michigan that fall. At the University of Michigan John played for Bennie Oosterbaan's Michigan Wolverines football teams from 1953 to 1955, playing center and tackle. Morrow's younger brother, the late Gordon Morrow, SMA ’54, played at the end position for Michigan from 1955 to 1958. Jim Cnockaert was a long time reporter for the Ann Arbor News, covering the Michigan football beat, until his departure in September 2003. In his book, Michigan: Where Have You Gone?, he wrote that “Because few scholarships were available, Morrow, like most of his [University of Michigan] teammates, took on just about any job he could to make ends meet. As a freshman, he sold programs at the stadium. Later he ran the kitchen for his fraternity and scraped the ice at the Coliseum in preparation for and between periods at Michigan hockey games. “After senior captain Dick O’Shaughnessy was hurt during the ’53 season, Morrow stepped in to play center in Coach Bennie Oosterbaan’s single-wing offense, as well as linebacker on defense. ‘Playing center was a difficult challenge,’ Morrow said. ‘You’re making a direct snap and there are 5 different spots you can put the ball, so you couldn’t keep your head up,’ he explained.

Members this board was made-up of noted coaches: Elmer Layden, Howard Jones, Frank Thomas and Glenn “Pop” Warner. “The policy of the All-America Board differs with other selectors on many points, of which the matter of multiple lineups is conspicuous; whereas most selectors name first, second, third teams, the Board confines its major recognition to the eleven players only, on the theory that there should be but one All- America team, and players who are names second or third choice may as well not be named at all.” * The initial team was selected in 1924; then in 1949 this board created an All-Time All-America Team that covered players over the past 25 years.

They include: Ends—Don Hutson, Alabama and Bennie Oosterbaan, Michigan Tackle—Ed Widseth, Minnesota Backs—Jay Berwanger, Chicago; Harold “Red” Grange, Illinois and Ernie Nevers, Stanford Another feature in Walsh’s book was John Heisman’s Stone Age versus Steel Age in Football; where the latter named a pair of all-time teams—one from early days, with the other more “modern”.
