Did anyone get a chance to read it yet? It's very well-written and I had no idea the guy in that famous Niners picture was a Buckeye.

John Frank was one of my all-time favorites! (Buckeyes & 49ers)

John Frank --- cool guy. One of my first Buckeye memories as a young boy was meeting him after a game --- (my aunt used to date him when she went to OSU in the 80s).

I remember all that back when it was happening...was just starting to read the sports section in the news paper and it was an awesome story for everyone but especially for young kids wanting to be altheletes and scholars.
