Jack Cvercko (Football, 1960, 1962-63)
Voted an All-American in 1962 and 1963, Jack Cvercko, like his brother Andy, played on both sides of the ball, except primarily as a guard. Jack's career was often hampered by a chronic knee injury but, as a Michigan State player once said about him, "Even on just one leg, Cvercko was the toughest player I've played against."
NU was 17-10 during Cvercko's three seasons with victories over Oklahoma, Notre Dame (twice), Miami and Ohio State (twice). Sports Illustrated once called him one of the "top linemen in the nation."
