Jaylon Smith FW Luers Zach and Nick Martin Chatard Scary Terry Mclaurin cathedral there are so many more but these 5 are some big names we should all recognize who currently play Quote
MHSTigerFan Posted December 6, 2019 Posted December 6, 2019 Jack Doyle went to Cathedral as well. Arguably the best all-time NFLer to hail from Indiana is the great Rod Woodson, who went to Snider and Purdue. 1 Quote

What do you mean “not NFL”? The Crimson Giants, though obviously short-lived (and not very good, to boot) were absolutely in the NFL. Well, technically, it was only called National Football League in their second of two seasons. In their first season, it was still called the American Professional Football Association. In fact, one of the teams the Crimson Giants played (and got throttled by) was the Green Bay Packers. Quote
