This alumni player was brought to my attention when his brother Darryl, came to my house today to give me an estimate. His Buckey tee Tshirt and hat brought up the Buckeyes. We had a good little chat while told me a few items about Woody.
Anyway I have taken the time to start this thread in honor of Joe who appears to be quite a player in his own right.
