A Virginia Tech Hokie Shows Up on the Hornung Watch List: Tayvion Robinson

In case you don’t know who Paul Hornung (pronounced horning) is, or was for the purposes of football, he’s the Heisman Trophy winning Green Bay Packer jack of most ball handling trades who put some serious electricity in the Packer Sweep, back in the days when Carroll Dale caught passes thrown by Bart Starr, and Jim Taylor was the king of the Power Sweep. Well, if Taylor was the powerful King, Paul Hornung could run that sweep, too, and he was the prince. The combination proved nearly unstoppable. What folks forget is that Hornung was also a place kicker and returner.
