Joe Greene.

 

Joe Greene: All American

Greene, who is looking forward to playing professional football, received yet another honor during his senior year. At half-time ceremonies at a basketball game, President John Kamerick presented him with his jersey, number 75, which was permanently retired and placed on display. Number 75 was the first in the history of the school to be so honored.

These were the tributes paid to the man who perhaps was the greatest Eagle of all time.
