Description
Howard Maple played from 1927-1929 and was from Corvallis. Howard lettered in football at Oregon State from 1926-1928. He was a second team All-American quarterback as a senior. He earned All-Coast recognition twice. Knute Rockne called him "the ideal quarterback." He went on to play pro football for the Chicago Cardinals and baseball for the Washington Senators in 1932. An arm injury he suffered playing football cut short his major league baseball career. Maple was inducted into the State of Oregon Sports Hall of Fame in 1981 and the OSU athletic hall of fame in 1991.
