Didn’t his Dad basically sign for him?
Who is the RB from Oklahoma that played at Stanford? A major coup. Apparently not a beer guy. He preferred…..
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 02-26-2023
Milburn’s step dad signed as Gyn was still 17

A bit of a trick question since Oregon State was an independent the year Baker won the JohnHeisman Award. I suspect he won the UPI award as well that year.
Add Charles White the year he won the JohnHeisman.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 02-26-2023
I sure didn’t recall that about Oregon State . Which is a great trivia question
Charles White is right White’s son make a great catch little League Western Region major league to beat Sunnyvale National and send White’s team to the World Series
Ok one more and it’s not the brother of Archie Bell of the Drells but close
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Giants - 02-26-2023
Ricky Bell?
Following up on the PAC-12 history….
From 1959-1961, the AAWU (successor to the Pacific Coast Conference) was comprised of Stanford, Cal, USC, UCLA and UW. In 1962, WSU was admitted and, in 1964, UO and OSU were admitted thus forming the PAC-8 Conference.
Trivia Question - which are the only two schools that have been continuous members of the conference since its founding in 1916?
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 02-26-2023
Not Ricky Bell
Hint John Madden

RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 02-26-2023
Sorry Skip yes Marcus Allen
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Mick - 02-26-2023
I think it was Cal and Washington

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pac-12_Conference#AAWU_(Big_Five_and_Big_Six)
Who knew our conference was once known as the Big Five and later the Big Six. . . .Larry should have sued the Big 10 and the Big 12 for trademark infringement.

RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 02-27-2023
Yes on all three. Nice now the other two.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - cardcrimson - 02-27-2023
Since it's a Stanford board, I'll guess Luisetti.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 02-27-2023
Darn my hint was going to be I went to his camp in the early 50s.
Yes on Hank
The other I saw play JC in the 60s
