I've been watching App football for over 50 years. To not include Larry Hand, would be a mistake. He was a MAN among boys!

And may have stayed in the NFL longer than any ASU alumnus and definitely All-Pro longer..

Why would we consider anything these players have done post APP graduation for an APP honor? :?

Also, don't really get why Quick was mentioned in the same sentence as the other losers, except he didn't say APP was the Holy Land of College Football?

He should make it without his NFL performance but it shows what a great talent he was straight out of ASU.
That was easy.

.....as to Hand, he represented ASU well for over a decade by being named All-Pro consecutively. Disagree?

There really should only be two heads on the mountain to date. Armanti and Dexter. The rest TBD. I saw Dino and Settle while in school and they were both great. Settle is the best running back we ever had and it is really hard to separate Dino and Dexter. But, place the two that won National Players of the Year awards and make it a very exclusive club.

Settle did not make the 1987 NFL All-Pro Team. Played in the Pro Bowl after the '88 season, but was never named to an All-Pro team.
That said, I agree, you can't leave him off the Rushmore team.

Finally, someone who makes some sense.
