    Tony Adamle: Doctor of Defense

    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 24, No. 3 (2002) Tony Adamle: Doctor of Defense By Bob Carroll Paul Brown “always wanted his players to better themselves, and he wanted us known for being more than just football players,” Tony Adamle told an Akron Beacon Journal reporter in 1999. In the case of Adamle, the former Cleveland Browns linebacker who passed away on October 8, 2000, at age 76, his post-football career brought him even more honor than captaining a world championship team. Tony was born May 15, 1924, in Fairmont, West Virginia, to parents who had immigrated from Slovenia. By the time he reached high school, his family had moved to Cleveland where he attended Collinwood High. From there, he moved on to Ohio State University where he first played under Brown who became the OSU coach in 1941. World War II interrupted Adamle’s college days along with those of so many others. He joined the U.S. Air Force and served in the Middle East theatre. By the time he returned, Paul Bixler had succeeded Paul Brown, who had moved on to create Cleveland’s team in the new All-America Football Conference. Adamle lettered for the Buckeyes in 1946 and played well enough that he was selected to the 1947 College All-Star Game. He started at fullback on a team that pulled off a rare 16-0 victory over the NFL’s 1946 champions, the Chicago Bears. Six other members of the starting lineup were destined to make a mark in the AAFC, including the game’s stars, quarterback George Ratterman and running back Buddy Young.

  • Bill Willis: Dominant Defender

    Bill Willis: Dominant Defender

    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 16, No. 5 (1994) BILL WILLIS: DOMINANT DEFENDER By Bob Carroll Bill Willis was one of the most dominant defensive linemen to play pro football after World War II. His success helped open the doors of the pro game for other Afro-Americans. William K. Willis was born October 5, 1921 in Columbus, Ohio, the son of Clement and Willana Willis. His father died when he was four, and he was raised by his grandfather and mother. He attended Columbus East High School and at first was more interested in track than football. "I had a brother, Claude, who was about six years older than me," Willis says. "He was an outstanding football player, a fullback in high school and I was afraid I would be compared with him." When he finally went out for football, he chose to play in the line despite the great speed that seemingly destined him for the backfield. He was a three-year regular at Columbus East, winning Honorable Mention All-State honors in his senior year. After working a year, Willis entered Ohio State University in 1941 and quickly caught the eye of Coach Paul Brown. At 6-2 but only 202 pounds, he was small for a tackle on a major college team, but his quickness made him a regular as a sophomore. At season's end, the 9-1 Buckeyes won the 1942 Western Conference (Big 10) championship and were voted the number one college team in the country by the Associated Press. Wartime call-ups hurt the team in Willis' final two years as most of OSU's experienced players as well as Coach Brown went into the service, but his own reputation continued to grow.
