Butz was one of the very first if not the first 300lb DT so he was way ahead of his time. Guy never came off the field and didn't play soft.

Butz was great and a world champion but never as dominant as Big Al.

Yo how old were you when Dave Butz and Darrly Grant played? Do you remember Diron Talbert and Ron McDole? How about Duane Thomas when you were speaking about character issues on a another post.

Talbert and McDole were playing in the early 70's. I was a little too young then. But I remember Grant and Butz very well. Coy Bacon use to smoke but it didn't hurt his stamina. Some guys are just natural athletes that way. AH is not that way. He needs to take his fitness a lot more serious then he does. We'll see next year.

I don't care about Duane Thomas cause he was a Cowboy.
