  • Statistical Leaders of the ‘20S
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 14, No. 2 (1992) Statistical Leaders of the ‘20s By Bob GIll Probably the most ambitious undertaking in football research was David Neft’s effort to re-create statistics from contemporary newspaper accounts for 1920-31, the years before the NFL started to keep its own records. Though in a sense the attempt had to fail, since complete and official stats are impossible, the results of his tireless work provide the best picture yet of the NFL’s formative years. Since the stats Neft obtained are far from complete, except for scoring records, he refrained from printing yearly leaders for 1920-31. But it seems a shame not to have such a list, incomplete though it may be. Of course, it’s tough to pinpoint a single leader each year; so what follows is my tabulation of the top five, or thereabouts, in passing, rushing and receiving for each season, based on the best information available – the stats printed in Pro Football: The Early Years and Neft’s new hardback edition, The Football Encyclopedia. These stats can be misleading, because one man’s yardage total will be based on, say, five complete games and four incomplete, while another’s might cover just 10 incomplete games (i.e., games for which no play-by-play accounts were found). And then some teams, like Rock Island, Green Bay, Pottsville and Staten Island, often have complete stats, based on play-by-plays for every game of a season. I’ll try to mention variations like that in discussing each year’s leaders – for one thing, “complete” totals will be printed in boldface.

  • Ben Lee Boynton:The Purple Streak
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 25, No. 3 (2003) Ben Lee Boynton:The Purple Streak by Jeffrey Miller The 1924 season was one of transition for Buffalo’s pro football team. The All-Americans, as the team had been known since its founding in 1920, had been very successful in its four year history, finishing within one game of the league championship in both the 1920 and 1921 seasons. But successive 5-4 campaigns and declining attendance had convinced owner Frank McNeil that it was time to get out of the football business. McNeil sold the franchise to a group led by local businessman Warren D. Patterson and Tommy Hughitt, the team’s player/coach, for $50,000. The new ownership changed the name of the team to Bisons, and committed themselves signing big name players in an effort to improve performance both on the field and at the box office. The biggest transaction of the off-season was the signing of “the Purple Streak,” former Williams College star quarterback Benny Lee Boynton. Boynton, a multiple All America selection at Williams, began his pro career with the Rochester Jeffersons in 1921. His signing with the Bisons in 1924 gave the Buffalo team its first legitimate star since Elmer Oliphant donned an orange and black sweater three years earlier. Born Benjamin Lee Boynton on December 6, 1898 in Waco, Texas, to Charles and Laura Boynton, Ben Lee learned his love of football at an early age. He entered Waco High School in 1912, and the next year began a string of three consecutive seasons and Waco’s starting quarterback.

  • 1926 Buffalo Rangers Ken Crippen
    1926 Buffalo Rangers Ken Crippen 1926 BUFFALO RANGERS By Ken Crippen After a dismal 1-6-2 season in 1925, Buffalo needed to make a change with their pro football team. Jim Kendrick was hired to replace Wally Koppisch as manager. Kendrick, a former Texas A&M player who played seven games for the Buffalo Bisons in 1925, planned to put together an all-Texas team. This team was sometimes called the “Texas” Rangers or “Cowboys,” but they represented the Queen City in the National Football League (NFL). Made up of “Southwestern products,” Kendrick believed that if the players had no outside interests or anything to divert their minds from playing football, they would play better. The player’s families would remain in the southern states, while they were alone in Buffalo. This was an experiment for the new manager and the season would determine if his theory was correct. Professional football had gained popularity since the NFL was formed. The 1926 season saw the emergence of a rival to the NFL: the first incarnation of the American Football League (AFL). Illinois gridiron legend Red Grange and sports agent Charles C. “C.C.” Pyle – sometimes referred to as “Cash-and-Carry” Pyle – started the league after NFL President Joe Carr refused the pair a franchise in New York City. The league only lasted one season, but it was the first competition for the relatively new NFL. While they were waiting for their new home in Bison Stadium to be ready for football, the Rangers practiced at Grover Cleveland Park on Bailey Avenue.

  • Jim Ailinger: Buffalo Legend
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 23, No. 2 (2001) Jim Ailinger: Buffalo Legend By Jeffrey J. Miller which included a successful 50-plus year career as a dentist, over 40 seasons as an official of major college football games, a stint as general manager of the minor league Buffalo Bisons of the American Hockey League, and helping to found dental programs in Buffalo City Schools. But it will be for those eight NFL games he played during the Roaring ‘20s that the Buffalo native is most famous. The year was 1924, and Jim Ailinger was a young dental student entering his senior year at the University of Buffalo. Captain and star center/defensive lineman of the UB football team, Ailinger’s collegiate career ended in 1923. However, Jim had another year of schooling left before he would earn his degree in dentistry. It was during this final year that he was approached by the Buffalo pros with an offer of $50 per game to play pro ball. “They asked me if I’d like to play,” Ailinger recalled of his tough negotiations with Bison management. “I didn’t want to at first, but when they offered me fifty dollars a game--I couldn’t turn that down. It paid my last year’s tuition at dental school.” The Buffalo franchise was in a rebuilding mode in 1924. The Buffalo All-Americans, as the team had been known since its founding in 1920, had been very successful in their four year history, finishing within one game of the league championship in both 1920 and 1921.

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”.
