Hall – Buck Buchanan Award Finalist 16 with over 2.5 million page views over the past year on www.fcs.football, Karter Schult – Buck Buchanan Award Finalist 18 it’s safe to say we’ve found an audience. Of course, tonight also marks A.J. Hines – Jerry Rice Award Recipient 20 a noteworthy milestone in FCS history. Thirty seasons ago, Colgate’s Tyler Swafford – Doris Robinson Award Recipient 22 Kenny Gamble walked away with the first Walter Payton Award, given to K.C.

  • Back Before Bengalmania Cincinnati's First Brush with the Big Time
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 11, No. 5 (1989) Back Before Bengalmania Cincinnati's First Brush With the Big Time by Bob Gill Sometimes the past pops up in the darnedest places. Last January, amid the Super Bowl hoopla that engulfed Cincinnati and all the southwestern Ohio, the Dayton Daily News (on a page headed "Bengalmania") ran a column by Bucky Albers about Cincinnati's first brush with big-time pro football: the 1937 Bengals of the American Football League. What the column doesn't say is that from 1936 to '41 Cincinnati was a hotbed of pro football activity. It's hard to fault Albers for that, though, because it's a story that very few people know. The tale begins with the formation of Midwest Football League in early 1936. This minor league grew from a regular circuit of teams that played each other in 1935. It included clubs in Louisville, Indianapolis, Dayton, Columbus, Springfield--and two in Cincinnati. Most were sponsored by local businesses, and the Cincinnati members were no exception. One was called the Model Shoes (Models for short), the other the Tresler Oils (or Treslers). The Models were the important team, featuring several former or future NFL players, including John Wiethe, an all-pro in 1939 and '40. They were coached by Hal Pennington and led on the field by a diminutive halfback named Leo Sack, who was second in the league in scoring with 42 points. They finished the regular season undefeated, but the league staged a Shaughnessy-style playoff afterward (first place against fourth, second against third, winners meet for the championship), and the Models lost the title game to the Louisville Tanks by the singular score of 2-0.
