Name the most underrated/forgotten Penn State football starter you can think of.
- Thread starter Taycro
- Start date
On Fitzkee, folks often forget that he was the punter too. I once saw him hit a magnificent 50-60 yard punt. The only problem with it was that it was only in bounds for the first 10 yards.
An aside, I see Vince and Janet (PSU grad) Papale a lot. They are both super nice people who have both lived amazing lives. Vince is getting up there in age.
I was talking to him last week and asked him if he remembered Ronnie Heller (LT) when he played for the Eagles. "Oh sure! Heller was a helluva a tailback." You see and hear stuff like this from older folks all the time, and it hurts. It hurts that there isn't a switch you can turn back on.
Their daughter Gabby is so cool and nice (and attractive). Just a cool family. To avoid the flag, here is Gabriella:

He came to PSU after scoring 4 TD's in one game for Polk HS in the state championship game.
"Peg, I wouldn't rub your feet if a genie popped out of them."
I had a pleasant conversation on the Blue Loop with his aunt when he was playing. Nice lady.
No love for Gino Capone?
I was going to mention Mac Morrison but he was already noted. Didn't see Ethan Kilmer noted but that TD catch in the Orange Bowl was crucial to our win.
Tony Johnson or Jordan Norwood as well?

Matt suhey. Grew up in our neighborhood on Windsor court behind westerly parkway junior high. State high phenom. Don’t hear his name too often anymore.
Played against Neal Smith when he was at Selinsgrove HS. The best player on that team was a Roger Hoffman (I believe they were co captains).
Roger ended up married with a child at graduation! Played some at Susquehanna after a few years working at PPL. Neal lived a few doors down from my parents after his playing days.
Zapiec cleared the block for Bob Campbell's 2 point conversion n the orange bowl. He was great at guard
My favorite PSU player grew up watching those 3yds and a cloud of dust. They had a nice, autographed pic of him in team store, no clue if its still there or not.
Didn't the Suhey family own a jewelry store in town? Can't remember the name of it.
This'll show my age. I'm picking Bobby Campbell. Really good RB who's never mentioned among PSU great RBs. Held back some due to a knee injury, back when knee injuries always ended your season, and a shoulder injury. He had some Sportcenter-worthy runs in his day.
