Roger Staubach was hailed by Navy coach Wayne Hardin as
"the greatest quarterback Navy ever had." In 1963, he
completed more than 115 passes, nine for touchdowns, and as a
sophomore completed 67 of 98 pass attempts and was the
leading percentage passer in the nation. In the Michigan-Navy
game of 1963, he connected on 14 passes for 237 yards, and
against West Virginia he completed 17 passes.
He was the
fourth junior to win the Heisman Trophy.
Of Roger's
subsequent professional career with the Dallas Cowboys, not
much needs to be said other than that he proved himself to be
one of the finest quarterbacks in history in terms of both
performance and team leadership.
Roger joined the Cowboys
in 1969 following four years service in the Navy, with one
year in Vietnam.
He was voted MVP in Super Bowl VI and
voted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1985, the first year
he became eligible for this honor.
Roger is Chairman and CEO
of The Staubach Company, a diversified commercial real
estate company headquartered in Dallas.
