Jon Joseph Moderator No. 1 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Scotty Scheffler, who just won the Masters by 'a lot,' won his first PGA tournament on 2/13/22. Now, he is #1 in the world and a Masters Champion. Here's the football connection that grey, grey beards will get. Scotty went to the same high school in Texas that produced Bobby Lane and Doak Walker. The best RB trophy for RBs in CFB is the Doak Walker Trophy. May the Ducks in 2022 go on the same kind of run! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DUCKED No. 2 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Scheffler has already won four tournaments this year and today he pocketed $2.7 million for winning The Masters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillieMosconi No. 3 Share Posted April 11, 2022 At seven, I remember sitting on the living room floor in front of a huge radio listening to Walker’s Mustangs beat Van Brocklin and the Ducks in the Cotton Bowl. I think it was close, something like 13-7, but could be off on that. SMU had another great player on that team - Kyle Rote. Sorry this is kind of OT. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s automatic from 6 to 8 feet….it’s the two footers that give him trouble. It’s nice to be able to four putt and know it doesn’t matter. His short game is truly astounding. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
47sgs No. 6 Share Posted April 12, 2022 He apparently also went to the same high school as Matthew Stafford, and won his first tournament at the same time Stafford was in the Superbowl. Quite the performance from Scottie, and a more than impressive final round by McIlroy to shoot 64 on an extremely difficult course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJacksPlaidPants Moderator No. 7 Share Posted April 12, 2022 This is also OT, but Highland Park HS has quite a notable alumni base. Clayton Kershaw, Angie Harmon, Jayne Mansfield and John Hinckley Jr. to name a few. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
