Wasn't it a kicker?
We've had one 3-time All-American kicker, but he's not the answer.

I don't think that was too easy - I just love this stuff!

Is the jersey on your wall Skladany, or somebody else?

Next question:

I was the first Buckeye in the 20th Century to be named team captain for 2 different seasons. Who am I?

Sweet!

After losing 3 straight games early in the season, I helped lead the Bucks to 7 straight wins, including a win over Michigan and in the Holliday Bowl. I ended up leading the team in rushing with over 1,500 yards, which at the time, only one other person had more yards in a single season.
