Jim Brown (1936-2023) had just complete his senior year at Syracuse, setting school records for season rush average and most rushing touchdowns in a single game (6 in his legendary performance against Colgate). Despite the Orangemen having only played an eight game schedule he ran for 986 yards and scored 14 touchdowns. He would be selected by Cleveland in the first round of the 1957 NFL draft and go on to one of most celebrated professional careers in history.
The awards' namesake, Dr. Charles B. Fisher, had founded the Pigskin Club of Washington in 1939 and it remains one of the oldest African American sports clubs in America.
