It is....Jack Trice
I guess I was optimistic that you all could get to US College Football sooner. I figured that once you factored DOB (1902), and then maybe narrowed down things regionally or by conference, then he was gettable. Maybe not. Could be 20Q would never be enough.
The hint I gave about an avatar was to get you to just think about US College football in general (Acirt’s Iowa State sports logo), and then be surprised later that the avatar was leading way more directly to the actual person.
As Acirt noted, Jack Trice's story is a sad one. He was trampled (reportedly) by three opposing players in an Iowa/Minnesota football game and died a couple of days later due to his injuries. He was African American and it was felt that attack on the field was racially motivated. In fact, Iowa would not play Minnesota again for 66 years because of the attack.
Jack Trice is said to be the only African-American person with a D1 College Stadium named after him, so he is not an obscure person.
I came across the story about Jack Trice while watching a Smithsonian Channel 1 hour show on the State of Iowa. I think they have a one hour show on every state. I thought he would be a good 20Q person.
That Acirt stumbled into this thread was kind of erie... There must be over 100 D1 teams and Acirt pops in with the logo....lol
