Dick Butkus for Your Event
Known more for his intensity and
ferocity as a pro superstar, Dick
Butkus began his legacy as the best
linebacker to ever play college
football. Everyone knows all about
his hitting and meanness, but most
don't remember just how fast he was
in college with running back
quickness making play after play
after play.
It
wasn't just the 373 tackles he made
in his career, it was the way he
made the tackles as the most
unblockable linebacker college
football has ever seen. Butkus set
the standard to which all other
linebackers are measured with the
Butkus Award going each year to the
nation's best college football
linebacker.
In
tribute to his life off the field,
Dick Butkus has been presented with
the Life Achievement Award from
Cedars Sinai Medical Center in LA,
and he is the recipient of the "Pope
John Award," which recognizes
outstanding achievement towards
humanity.
