Page 1 of 3 Duty calls: Army says Cadets can turn pro now 02:15 PM CDT on Monday, March 31, 2008 By RICK GOSSELIN / The Dallas Morning News [email protected] Roger Staubach entered the U.S. Naval Academy in the 1960s with an eye on a military career. Along the way, Staubach became one of college football's greatest quarterbacks, winning the Heisman Trophy in 1963. But the NFL did not find him attractive – not with a five-year commitment to the Navy looming upon graduation. So the Cowboys selected Staubach in the 10th round of the 1964 draft in the unlikely event that he would one day pursue a professional football career. But a recently implemented rule at the U.S. Military Academy could change the way cadets are selected in April's NFL draft. And two cadets from Texas, including punter Owen Tolson of Richardson's Canyon Creek Christian Academy, could get drafted this year. Service academy players, even the legends, rarely have NFL careers. Felix "Doc" Blanchard (1945) and Pete Dawkins (1958) won Heisman trophies and never played in the NFL. After fulfilling his military commitment, including a stint in Vietnam, Staubach reported to training camp in 1969 with the Cowboys as a 27-year-old rookie. He would quarterback Dallas to four Super Bowls in the 1970s and earn himself a bust in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. JON MALINOWSKI / Special to How much glossier would Staubach's football legacy have been had he spent DMN those five prime years of his professional life – ages 23 to 27 – on the football Army safety Caleb Campbell (left) field instead of in the military? That was the tradeoff for one of the best and punter Owen Tolson pose in their educations a college scholarship could buy.

All-Time All-American Team Selections—Players from Pre-1937* Christy Walsh selected All-American Teams, with the assistance of what he called the All-America Board. 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. Six outstanding players of the Pre-1937 made this mythical team. 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”.

  • Winning the Heisman Trophy….Playing for a National Champion
    Winning the Heisman Trophy….Playing for a National Champion By Tex Noel/1st-N-Goal; StatHistorian/SEC SportsFan.com Two of the most asked questions on the minds of college football fans; more so, SEC fans and definitely Florida Gator fans: • Will Florida repeat as the national championship? • And will Tim Tebow become the second player to win the Heisman Trophy, twice! Tune in SEC and football fans… Here is a bit of history on players that have accomplished both. Checking Pre-1950 Heisman Trophy winners that were members of at least 2 AP National Championship teams were: Bruce Smith, {HT: 1941}, Minnesota, 1940-41; Johnny Lujack, {HT: 1947}, Notre Dame, 1943-46-47; Felix “Doc” Blanchard {HT: 1945} and Glenn Davis {HT: 1946}, both Army, 1944-45; Leon Hart, {HT: 1949}, Notre Dame, 1946-47-49. Single National Champions prior to 1950…Davey O’Brien, TCU, HT/NC; {1938/1938} and Les Horvath, {1944/1942} Below is a list of Heisman Trophy winners that were members of a National Champion*, since 1950; but it must be noted, without actual rosters, there is no way to determine if the players were even actually on the team when the school was No. 1! More than likely a player was at least on the squad in years prior to being awarded to “bronze statue.” Players listed in italics won played for a National Champion and won the Heisman Trophy in the same season.
