Who's the Greatest Buckeye "Old Timer"? (Please vote for THREE)
Three years ago, we did a series of polls in which the BP community selected the "Greatest Buckeye Ever" team. Since then, many more great players have passed through the Woody Hayes Athletic Center, so it's probably a good time to revisit the polls.
Every week, we will post a poll on "Who's the Greatest Buckeye" at each of the positions. The first poll, quarterback, will open today, and run for a month.
All players selected for the poll will be from the "modern era", which we have more-or-less arbitrarily determined to have begun with the hiring of Woody Hayes in 1951. However, there will be a special poll for the older Buckeye stars, where you will be allowed to choose amongst such greats as Les Horvath, Vic Janowicz, Chic Harley, etc.
Please vote on each poll, if you can. Also, please note that each poll will allow you to vote at least twice, as we would like to compile a first and second team. If you vote for "other", please let us know your selection(s) by setting forth the name(s) in a post.
Polls will be posted as follows:
1. Quarterback
2. Multi-purpose player
3. Tailback
4. Fullback
5. Wide Receiver
6. Tight End
7. Offensive Tackle
8. Offensive Guard
9. Offensive Center
10. Defensive Tackle
11. Defensive End
12. Outside Linebacker
13. Safety
14. Cornerback
15. Kicker
16. Punter
17. "Old Timer"
18. Head Coach
So, please vote now for your All-Time Greatest Buckeye "Old Timer"; please make THREE selections.
Thanks for your participation.

I nearly voted for Bill Willis, but after thinking about it chose Chic, Les, and Vic. There are a lot of other great Buckeyes there, and a lot more that could just as easily have been nominated.

I did vote for Willis, mostly because it was so cool to see him in the stadium on Saturday.

I voted for Harley, Willis and Janowicz. My apologies to Heisman winner Les Horvath.
Note to Best Buckeye and cinci: There's no comma before "old-timer", so the thread is not addressed to either one of you.
