This is a very hard question to answer.

I loved watching [B]Tommy Myers[/B] play - he was a great football player who probably does not receive the acclaim from Syracuse fans that he deserves.

I also loved watching [B]Cliff Ensley[/B] -  a guy who at SS could hit, INT and return punts for TDs. He was a great athlete who played on some great defenses.

[B]Joe Ehrmann[/B] was as good a DT as I have ever seen on the Hill. While Ben's offenses slowed down a lot in 1970 and 1971, the defenses for those years - with Ehrmann leading the way - were stifling.

And, I have to mention [B]Rich Panczyszyn[/B], the No. 44 QB whose photo I use when posting on this board.

He was given the number for a reason - he was a truly great athlete - a real triple threat who could run, throw and punt. He was hindered by injuries - he had the starting job in 1967 but was hurt in the first game against Baylor - but was still a player who made a very strong impression on me as a kid.

And finally, I have to say that Freeney, McNabb, Reyes, Rhodes, Conley, Ferri and Troy Nunes will always be my heroes.
