Archie Griffin's first year as a running back with the Cincinnati Bengals was no crowd-stopper, and this rehash of his college career with the Ohio State Buckeyes seems a bit premature. Especially in such a grueling combination of statistic and sports clichÉ. Those who persevere in looking for the man behind the two-time Heisman Trophy winner get hit with Archie's creed--desire, dedication, and determination--and an insider's look at those wonderful weekends hack in the Griffin home. ""Those weekends were really something. There was much laughter and much talk of football."" Wait for the pro bali verdict.
