Bob Hayes, WR from Florida A&M, was a World Class sprinter and won the gold medal in the 100 meter dash and the 4x100 meter relay at the 1964 Summer Olympic games held in Tokyo, Japan. Bullet Bob was then chosen by the Dallas Cowboys at the 1964 draft in the 7th round. Bob was a future pick, 1 year of college eligibility left, and not eligible to play until 1965. When he was eligible to play he changed the game. Defenses could not cover Bullet Bob man to man so zone defenses were designed to try and stop the world class speedster. Bullet Bob averaged over 20 yards per catch his 1st 6 seasons and recorded double digit TDs in 5 of those 6 years! Bob is still the only person in history who has a Super Bowl Ring and a Olympic Gold medal. Bob played in the NFL for 11 seasons, 10 with the Cowboy and his final season in 1975 with the 49ers. Bob finished his career with 371 catches, 7414 yards and 71 TDs. Bob Hayes was inducted into the Dallas Cowboys Ring of Honor in September 2001 just 1 year before his death on September 18, 2002. Bob Hayes' Family and fans are still awaiting induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, an honor well overdue!
