Heard a story that Knute Rockne took his players to Nevers 59 point game. When came out and went to site on the bench, Rockne turned to his players and said, "Gentlemen, that is how you play football."
That's how it goes. Great players fade, even if they were household names in their prime. When I was a kid watching the NBA Alex English was a superstar. How many fans of this generation even know what team he played for? English was a league scoring champion in the 80s.

I'm sorry, I meant the 40 point game.
love that
why do you show a Michigan player running?
Most players during that period were dual players that played both sides of the ball.
Wow, I wonder why I’ve never heard of him before.
It's jim Thorpe, not thrup!
Thanks for the video. I was not aware of him or his accomplishments.

JIM THORPE NOT JIM THROPE!
Great video. I have a whole play list on our UA-cam channel about him as my husband is HIS SON!
no way?! Thanks for stopping by, that's awesome. I'll check it out, Ernie Nevers was a stud!
Yeah, but he never married a full sweatered redhead, and brag about
scoring 4 TDs in one game. Tackling Ernie Nevers was like tackling a
tank.
Yeah, he had some nice stats, but let him get back to me when he scores four touchdowns for Polk high.
Was he the original owner of Julles Winfield's wallet?
