Iowa's two retired numbers

- Nile Kinnick
- Calvin Jones

- Hayden Fry - changed Iowa's football program like no other.
- Chuck Long - I think the 3 above are clear Iowa Mt Rushmore. This 4th one can be different people, but I went with Chuck Long.

First black player to win the Outland Trophy and as an offensive lineman, finished 10th in the Heisman Race and 1st team AA on a team that went 3-5-1. Played in the 1950s.

What is interesting about ISU is they have had a couple great coaches, but weren't legendary at ISU - like Pop Warner.

It's not that difficult to win at Auburn.

Auburn has had 12 undefeated seasons with 3 of them belonging to:

Terry Bowden
Tubby Tuberville
GeneChizik

It's just not that hard.

I think you have to start with the 3 Heisman trophy winners:

Bo Jackson
Cam Newton
Pat Sullivan

The 4th is tough but I think you have to go Tracy Rocker.

Coaches

Shug Jordon
Pat Dye
John Heisman
Mike Donahue

If we were doing all sports I would put:

Bo Jackson
Charles Barkley
Frank Thomas
Kristi Coventry (7 Olympic medals in swimming).

Tracy Rocker was my girlfriend's next-door neighbor in college...she asked him to sign a program for me...he wound up getting all but like 5 guys to sign it for me off the '87-'88 team. I didn't go to Alabama until 1992, so I hadn't turned to the dark side yet. I still have it and Tracy Rocker is still a stand-up guy in my book.
