I read somewhere that back then they didn't really have an assigned number...that they changed pretty much every game. Apparently, #47 was the number Chic wore in his last game.

I heard some people wanted to retire him as #10 since he wore that when they beat scUM for the first time. Don't worry folks...#10 will be retired very soon! :)

It happens every year. We try to count down faster than the calendar.

Let's not wish our lives away. While the next 47 days will seem like an eternity, there is still some living to do between now and then.

Those last 23 hours will seem long enough when we get there. But 47 days from right now, we're going to be watching a good Penguin mauling.

Any more truncation errors, and we elitist pr icks are going to initiate legal action. You have one month. No joke. Govern yourselves accordingly.

...and it doesn't matter if you weren't alive in the 70's or if you're a big fan of defense or if you went to a certain high-school in Westerville...


THERE IS ONLY ONE BUCKEYE WHO's PICTURE SHOULD BE DISPLAYED TOMORROW.

It should be obvious that DBB is talking about a Buckeye name that's famous throughout the land. A name that is frequently the first name that even casual fans associate with Ohio State football. A captain who later had someone with the same last name also become a captain.

But it's tough to find a picture of captain James Herbstreit wearing the #45 in 1960, so we may have to go with some other guy.

Since you typed in all CAPS, I'm assuming you meant this guy ():

Andy Katzenmoyer of Ohio State, a mere freshman, is the - 11.25.96 - SI Vault

November 25, 1996
Born To Be A Buckeye
Andy Katzenmoyer of Ohio State, a mere freshman, is the linchpin of a ferocious defense
William Nack

...In the regional championship game in Katzenmoyer's junior year, against Dublin High, Pentello says that Katzenmoyer hit running back Rolland Steele the way "a train would meet a deer. When you look at the play on film, no matter how much you slow it down, the hit happened so fast that it came between frames. One frame they're about to collide, the next frame Rolland Steele has disappeared." Though the tale sounds apocryphal, or as though the film had gotten stuck in the camera, Pentello insists that it is true. "I've never see that in all my years of coaching," he says...

That was my favorite part of the column because I was a freshman watching that game from the stands. Rolland ended up on the track. SI failed to mention, more impressively, that Rolland ran in the 4.3s and was also a scholarship football player at tOSU.
