ARLEY EARLS FROM LINDALE, TX: I heard that Jack ham never played football in high school. Is that true?
ANSWER: It is not true. In the 1966 Bishop McCort Yearbook, there is a photo of Jack Ham in his uniform. In the photo, he is wearing jersey No. 66. After high school, Ham attended prep school at Massanutten in Woodstock, Va., where he played football but didn t play a lot or very well, either. Ham left Massanutten with no scholarship offers, but he did have a teammate named Steve Smear, a defensive lineman who had gotten a football scholarship to Penn State. When one of the Penn State recruits backed out of his commitment and signed with Iowa, there was an open spot, and Smear lobbied the coaches to give that scholarship to Ham. The Penn State coaching staff ended up reaching out to Ham with an offer late in the spring before his freshman year in college.
