The Haucks are from Butte. Bobby's late father, Bob, played high school basketball there. After college he went to Big Timber to teach. Tim was born in Butte. Don't know about Bobby. Incidentally, Tim played in more NFL games than any Montana native..183.

Robin Selvig: Outlook

John Friesz: Missoula born, Walter Payton Award at Idaho, played many years in the NFL an coached many years in the NFL and on a few college staffs

Bob O'Billovich: Butte and CFl administration

Kevin Sweeney: Bozeman born played in NFL and numerous coaching positions

Mike McLeod: Bozeman and a few coaching stops after NFL as a player

I don't believe Sam McCullum was born in Montana but he was raised in the Flathead and played for MSU. He ought to be listed in administration as his lawsuit brought about free agency in the NFL.

Gotcha. I'll blame it on my danged fuzzy memory! Thanks for clearing it up.

Jerry Kramer was born in Jordan, but I don't believe he's related to Mike, is he?

Doesn't appear so although I couldn't confirm. Bio has Mike born and raised in Colton, WA and on to UofI to play football. Jerry Kramer was born in Jordan, MT, family moved early to northern Utah then northern Idaho where he was raised in Sandpoint. Also went to Uof I to play football. Last names and Idaho football seem to be the only dots that connect.
