He played a few years before I started following football so I really don't know much about him. All I know is he was a QB for Notre Dame and Beano Cook predicted he'd win 3 Heismans. What kind of a player was he? What kind of stats did he put up? Did he play in the NFL? I want some details, please.

Ron Powlus was a steel drivin' man.

Washed his face in a fryin' pan.

Had a blue ox.

That is about all I remember -

- except that he was to great quarterbacks as Chralie Weis is to great coaches.

Cliff's notes:

Highly regarded recruit.

signed with Notre Dame

Beano Cook declares Powlus will win three Heismans

Powlus sucks for three years

slips into obscurity.

The End.

There are a few things I remember about the legend that is Ron Powlus:

1- For people who think Claussen or Quinn have gotten hype when recruited, Powlus was hyped about 100000000x more than that. Not only did Beano the Hutt think he was going to win 3 Heismans (he claims he said 2 now, but that's a load of crap) but everyone else said they would win at least 2 NCs while he was there

2- Powlus wasn't a bad player, but the thing I remember most about him is that he did absolutely nothing very well...not throwing, scrambling, making decisions, running the team, improvising, sticking to the progressions...nothing. He was the ultimate definition of an average QB, because everything he did was average.

3- He was the QB we layed waste to....twice.

4- He regresse
