Roman Gabriel! Standing tall & throwing to Jack Snow (another cool name).
My high school had an Indian QB named Sonny Sixkiller who signed with the Rams.
R.I.P. Mr. Gabriel

He wasn’t that good. Neither was Tarkington. Both choked in big games. Tarkington played a lot of yers running around and not getting injured. Gabriel was noteworthy for his big size at 220 lbs, big at the time. The size didn’t make him any better. Then there was the line in his book criticizing John Brodie. “He just throws the ball up hoping Gene Washington gets it”.
