A visitor asks: Hi, i've been wondering for decades who the defensive lineman was on your champion 1977 football team. He was this MASSIVE, quick, viscious nightmare of a defensive tackle or defensive end who completely shut down our potent offense in the 2nd round playoffs. i was the ball boy/equipment manager and my brother was the nosetackle (patrick Hamrock). Everybody just referred to him as "GIANT"--including our head coach Harry Robinson. during half-time in the locker room, the whole 20 or 30 minutes was devoted to overcoming "GIANT"! Of course, Don Roberts destroyed our defense that night too. That was a hell of a great team.
