Famous stars who played college football

I agree that the physical nature of pro basketball has detracted somewhat from the purity of the game, but I seriously doubt the Hawks have defensive tackles. Now, the FALCONS, on the other hand … well, they don’t have defensive tackles, either, but at least they list that position on the roster.

Goldberg did, in fact, play his college ball at the University of Georgia.

Smart ass :wink:

Thanks for confirming, maybe this memory of mine is worth keeping after all.

I’m not a smart-ass, but I play one on TV.

Sorry. You should know that I had a huge grin on my face while I typed that earlier post. Gave me a kick to correct somebody with the screen name “Omniscient.”

FWIW, I almost referred to the Hawks as an NHL team before I stopped and cogitated a bit. Outside the Braves, the Atlanta teams have been eminently forgettable.

FWIW, Jackie Robinson, while famous for his baseball career, was an outstanding athlete at UCLA. He not only played football there, but also basketball and starred on the track and field team. In fact, he set collegiate records in some track events while in college.
