ABOUT THE SEVEN BLOCKS OF GRANITE

7blocksofgraniteGhosted.jpg

The Lombardi Award™ goes annually to the college football lineman —offense or defense-who, in addition to outstanding performance and ability, best exemplifies the character and discipline of Vince Lombardi.

 

As the legendary coach of the Green Bay Packers, Lombardi first made a name as the smallest but toughest member of Fordham University's "Seven Blocks of Granite," renowned in their day (1934-37) for being the most unyielding line in college football.
