On a side note, tough break for Farve as he won't be iligible for the Collegiate HOF...

Quote:

Played their last year of intercollegiate football at least ten years prior; played within the last 50 years and cannot be currently playing professional football.

It may be 52 years since he last played College Football before he hangs em up.

Did not realize Milt Morin passed away this past week. I don't recall his career at UMass but I do remember him as a good TE with the Browns for a long time back when Cleveland had Leroy Kelley running the ball and had a winning record every year.

A couple other players with Pats ties, though for a much shorter period of time than Troy Brown: Steve McMichael and Dick MacPherson.

Gino Torretta is a bit of a head scratcher to me. Yes, I know he won the Heisman Trophy, but I felt that was more of a case of 'give the award to the quarterback of the best team' than anything else.
