I had not read that article. That was a fantastic piece on him and his family. Damn I hope this guy picks Purdue tomorrow.

We had an outstanding Greek linebacker on our 1967 Rose Bowl team, Veno Paraskevas. After college he opened an upscale bar in WL that became a popular watering hole.

Veno didn't play at Purdue until the fall of 1968.

This is a pretty well written article for a high school sports beat writer. Dude's got a future!

What time is the announcement supposed to be made?

Just saw he's announcing after his game. So like 10 PM or so.

That was George Catavalos in '67. Veno played from '68-'70. He later married Catavalos' sister Olga. They later divorced.

Catavolos made the interception saving the 66-67 Rose Bowl win...
