HOF Trivia Question

[Hostile]

Cornell Green was a surprise to me too. He made All-Pro 4 straight years from 1966-69, and no other CB made it more than two of those years.

Green was switched over to safety late in his career and made the Pro Bowl at that position too.

His nephew posts here. It would interest me to find out what Cornell thinks about this.

somebody ought to forward this thread to peter king or paul zimmerman and see if we get a reaction out of them. aren't they both selectors?

Zimmerman resigned from the selection committee in 2004 when they refused to let Bob Hayes in, the senior candidate he sponsored. King has received several messages from me on this subject, in different forms.

Dr. Z is a strong supporter of Cliff Harris, even putting Harris on his All-Century team. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/centurys_best/news/1999/10/06/nfl_allcentury_team/
