Yes, Ted is in that small group of maybe 12-15 Canes. Judged by what they achieved at The U and later in the NFL. Not comparing them to players from other schools, that’s not the point, it’s all about The U.
Ted Hendricks
Mike Irvin
Ray Lewis
Jim Kelly
Ed Reed
Warren Sapp
Edge James
Ottis...
Yep, knew about Otto.
RB Pete Banaszak, WR Bill Miller, LB Dan Conners, DL Tony Cline, and plenty of other Canes passing though (Owens, Maryland, Sapp, Buchanon, more) for a season or a few.
He was at a Canes Pep Rally in Century City (LA) in 2001, for the NC Rose Bowl. Didn’t say much, but waved to the crowd when he was introduced. Given he played and finished his career in Oakland/Los Angeles I assume he still lives on the West Coast.
