This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

1928 by olson

based on the starting lineup Rockne mentions at the beginning of the tape it had to be 1928

Rock mentions
Ends: Colrick and Collins(Eddie)
backs: Jimmy(Brady), Niemiec,Chevigny and Collins((Fred)

this is the only year all of those players played together...albeit most that Rock mentioned were reserves in 1927(E Eddie Collins didn't play much & Brady, Fred Collins, Niemiec and Chevigny didn't start in '27)

QB Jim Brady Pocatello ID
FB Fred Collins Portland Ore. Columbia Prep
HB Jack Chevigny Hammond Ind
HB John Neimiec Bellaire Oh
E John Colrick Newark NJ St Benedict
E Eddie Collins Chicago St Ignatius

likely starting line (though Rock didn't mention them in speech)
T Fred Miller Milwaukee Wis E Milwaukee HS
G George Leppig Cleveland Oh East
C Tim Moynihan Chicago St Phillips
G John Law Yonkers NY
T Ted Twomey Duluth, Mn Catholic

Frank Leahy was a soph. reserve tackle on that team
