But the NFL recognizes AFL records as of their 1970 merger, do they not? Even the early 1960s records, like Gilchrist's single game rushing record or Marty Feldman's one year coaching record of 1-13? (Maybe he wants to forget it...)

He lettered in 1946 and 1947. He also played rugby. Must have been quite a player, he's in Stanford's Hall of Fame for rugby:

Plunkett, Benjamin, Brodie, Garrett, McColl. And I think it was discontinued when I was in high school, sometime in the late '70s.
