Chryst saw a mixture of college and CFL positional stops added to his resume highlighted with stops in Ottawa (1994), Saskatchewan (1996), Chargers (1999-’01) .
Named head coach at Pitt in 2012, after rising up the coaching staff at his Alma Mater Wisconsin.
In 2015, he returned to Wisconsin as head coach, and led the team to 6 bowl wins (7 appearances), and ranked after 4 of those seasons.
Fired during the 2022 campaign after the Badgers got off to a 2-3 start.
Compiled a 67-26 record at Wisconsin.
ACCOLADES:
Big 10 Coach of The Year 2016, ’17
NOTES:
Paul Chryst is a member of the Mike Riley tree. He’s crossed back over into Mike’s sphere of influence a few times with the Riders and then later at Oregon St. He signed this card for me only shortly before he was let go. Paul’s not a sexy name, but I think he’d make a fine coach at another major program, or perhaps in the XFL23 or ‘new’ USFL.
Ran for 317 yards on 100 carries, scoring 3 TDs, to go along with 18 catches for 138 yards and another TD.
ACCOLADES:
First 100 yard rusher in AAF history.
NOTES:
I tried to get Zac’s autograph on his two remaining cards (Topps AAF 2019, Topps AAF NOW 2019) but at this point they’re basically flushed.
On the now defunct AAF website, soon before it shut down, the league touted Zac Stacy as one of their up and coming stars and had a feature on him and his brother, who has down syndrome.
In 2022, Stacy was caught on tape gruesomely attacking his ex-girlfriend in the presence of his child. He maintains that his ex manipulated and entrapped him into behaving that way.
In general, everything about Zac’s rise and fall makes me extremely sad.
A hybrid linebacker/safety, Proctor was right at home playing in the role, where he helped the Surge win World Bowl II.
Played in 1993 for the Sacramento Gold Miners.
Signed with the San Diego Chargers in 1995, before heading over to the Arena Football League in 1996.
Played 9 seasons of Arena ball at LB/RB, starting with Connecticut and Florida in 1996.
Then one year stops with New Jersey, Grand Rapids, Iowa, and New York through 2001.
Spent final 3 years of football career (2002-2004) playing for the Tampa Bay Storm.
Has been a lightning rod of controversy, thanks to legal issues.
NOTES:
Well there’s a first for everything. I struggled to find Basil even going so far as to looking for him through an offender database. I received the card back damaged and signed on the back, so I’ll take what I can get especially after throwing up a hail mary at the address I found.
