    Titans - McNair, Young...?

    OK, I must have missed them in my research. And I think it is because McNair was actually drafted by the Houston Oilers before they became the Tennessee Tits. My eye did not catch that and my brain did not put it together.

    Alcorn was known as A&M before it became "State". And that is not the only school to do that: Oklahoma St. won two National Championships in basketball as Oklahoma A&M. LSU is the same.

    Dr. David Mays in like 1975

    3. Name the two black QBs who were drafted by the Browns...but never made a start, and went to play in Canada (rate this a 10 out of 10 on Trivia difficulty scale)

    One is Bernie Custis, drafted in early 50s....he did not play for the Browns...but he did become the first black QB to start a game in the CFL

    Sandy Stephens wanted to play QB...but as so often was/is the case, the black player was asked to switch positions, which he did. But, he too went off to try his hand at QB in the CFL.

    4. Who was the last Black QB drafted by the Browns?

    Spergon Wynn. 2000

    5. Name those black QBs who have been the #1 overall pick in the draft.

    Michael Vick, Jamarcus Russell, Cam Newton, Jameis Winston

    6. Name those teams who have, in their history, drafted two or more Black QBs in the first round.

    Minnesota Vikings took both Dante Culpepper and Terry Bridgewater in round 1

    Washington Redskins took Jason Campbell and Robert Griffin

    Tennessee Titans/Oilers took Steve McNair and Vince Young #

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers took Doug Williams, Josh Freeman, and Jameis Winston

    # If you include "people of color" and not just AA you can also add Marcus Mariota to the Tits roster

    Also, The Bengals took Akili Smith, and previously Jack Thompson "The Throwin' Samoan"

    * Some people would have included Mark Rypien as a "person of color" as many thought he was Native American....but he wasn't, he just looked it. His ethnic background is Polish and Czech.

    7. You are likely aware of the existance of the "traditional African American" Colleges. Name the two traditional black colleges from which a QB has been drafted in the first round.

    Doug Williams out of Grambling St. and Steve McNair out of Alcorn State/A&M whatever.

    It is not good. Let's hope RGIII improves:

    Jason Campbell 1-7

    Seneca Wallace 1-6

    David Mays 1-3

    Thad Lewis 0-1

    Spergon Wynn 0-1

    Combined 3-18

    Yes they became Alcorn State in 1974 McNair played at State, like Youngstown became State in 1966 I know because I started there in 1968.

    So, Youngstown State used to be Youngstown A&M? Never heard that.

    Sorry no Ag & Mil there, Youngstown College to Youngstown University to YSU. Really a nice university now after I was long gone. Amazing amount of money flowing in since Tressel became President and as a bonus Bo Pelini took over the football team....finally!

    Well, all schools at one point or the other had a different name. Akron U was Buchtel College. Cleveland State was Fenn College.

    Michigan was: Catholepistemiad of Detroit

    And Oh...i...o....there is this: the educational institution heretofore known as the 'Ohio Agricultural and Mechanical College,' shall be known and designated hereafter as 'The Ohio State University.'"

  • Princeton was originally: The College of New Jersey.

    Penn St. was "The Agricultural College of Pennsylvania"

    Maryland: Maryland Agricultural College

    Rutgers was "Queen's College"

    Michigan St: The Agricultural College of the State of Michigan

    Indiana: The Indiana State Seminary

    Purdue has had no name change, it has always been Purdue Univ.

    Illinois was "Illinois Industrial University"

    Northwestern has always been just Northwestern

    Wisconsin was originally "the University of the Territory of Wisconsin"

    Minnesota has had no name change

    Iowa was "The State University of Iowa"...not to be confused with Iowa State, which was originally Iowa Agricultural College and Model Farm

    Nebraska has always been Nebraska....but they officially call it "Nebraska-Lincoln" Wisconsin also technically is Wisconsin-Madison but for these schools most people know them must by the state name.

    Cribbs was a QB when we drafted him...

    Hello, McFly...is anybody Home? We didn't draft Cribbs......he was a UDFA.....QB or otherwise. I think we may have signed some UDFA black QB even since Cribbs who did not make the cut...didn't we?

    But it might be fun saying Catholepistemiad of Detroit Coach Harbaugh .....but not to "m" fans.

    Plus it would never end.
