Classic Good News: Archie Griffin Still the Face of Ohio State

Archie Griffin remains the only two-time Heisman Trophy winner, earning the awards in 1974 and 1975 when he starred in the Ohio State backfield. He retired as the leading rusher in NCAA history and put together a still unbroken record of 31 consecutive 100-yard rushing games.

Griffin is still a very visible presence in Columbus even today as the president of Ohio State's Alumni Association after serving seven years as an associate athletic director.

Most importantly, he is still one of the genuine good guys in sports. Don't take my word for it, check out this column in the Palm Beach Post and read the testimonials from some of the people who know him the best.
