[retro44]

Rob Drummond
Four Wheel Drive
Whoever it was who ran down that Oklahoma player at the one yard line (help me out here)

Bryce Beville

 

[kcsu]

As a kid i used to watch Cuse practice and Coach Ben with his ropes and paratrooper type drills was the original hard nosed coach

 

[kcsu]

My hard nosed player would have to be Joe Erhman

 

[DNABB5]

Couple lesser credited players who had hardnosed attitude...

Wilky Bazille

Kevin Abrams

Oh oh for offense

Al Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooten. I do not recall seeing him lose yardage ever.

 

[Faegan]

Antwuane Ponds

 

[sufandu]

Delone Carter. Dude came back from a dislocated hip and ran people over.

 

['72 Orange]

The leader of the 1987 defense - Ted Gregory

 

[orange79]

Tony Romano

 

[MattyL]

Diamond Ferri. BC would agree.

 

[sufandu]

Michael Vick nominates Dwight Freeney.

 

[SBro44]

Jim Brown and Czonka are some no brainers... Joe Ehrmann was a good call.

Coach P should get some hard nose points... the guy was as gruff as a mountain man.. "gotta watch the film" was the answer to every question.

Did anyone say Tim Green?

What about softest nose?? WR- Mike Williams?

 

[SBro44]

Diamond Ferri. BC would agree.


I was thinking Diamond Ferri--- but eliminated him because of his name

 

[oldpinepoint]

Kevin Mitchell

 

[BlackKnight76]

Max Suter

 

[All4SU]

Mike Zunic

 

[All4SU]

Pat Kelly at TE

 

[xc84]

Ted Gregory before injured.

Also David Holmes... I recall him being a hard hitter.

Mike Charles (he was 80s bad-ass)

 

[sufandu]

Kevin Mitchell

Was awarded the defensive mvp at the fiesta bowl as a 240 lb nose guard in a 3-4 defense. The last time that probably happened was the 1950's when your biggest guys weren't much more than 240 lbs.

 

[atcar]

Mackey @ TE
How about John Flannery, Duke Pettijon

 

[cliftonparksufan]

Diamond Ferri. BC would agree.

Why? Aren't diamonds like the hardest thing out there..

 

[HtownOrange]

Art Monk. Caught whatever was thrown his way.

 

[ArlingtonOrange]

Derek Ward.
You might be hard nosed if you K/O Tom Rathman on the opening kickoff of the Nebraska game.

 

[sutomcat]

Art Monk. Caught whatever was thrown his way.

Shamarko might have been the most hardnosed SU player ever. Maybe a tie with Jim Brown.

When I think of Diamonds I think of a girl getting married... when I think of Ferri, I think of fairy
