George Andrie '67 Philadelphia
NICE! You and Scobes hit my Golden Age of Football cards with your posts today George Andrie is the only NFLer I know of that played college football at Marquette. I'm sure there have been others but Marquette was always a basketball school in my memory starting wiith the Al McGuire era.
I WAS gunna post a '69 too but thought I'd hold off for a little bit. And I looked up the players that went to Marquette and there were quite a few, none that I recognized though...

Wow! There were a ton of players from Marquette mostly from the 20sthrough the 40s. THe one player besdies Andrie I recognized was Karl Kassulke who was a starting safety for those great Vikings defenses of the late 60/early 70s. His career was tragically cut short in a motorcycle accident that left him paralyzed. I'll bet Marquettee disbanded their football program shortly after Andrie and Kassulke joined the NFL in 1962 and 1963 since I don't see any from that school after those two guys.Marquette Players/Alumni | Pro-Football-Reference.com

Yup... says they dropped football in 1960 due to financial difficulties. Now I know why I didn't recognize anybody! lol

Yes, evidently that was the case:
"In December 1960, Marquette discontinued intercollegiate football, citing the financial hardships imposed by a program that lost $50,000 in the preceding year."
