Jeff Mezydlo of Yardbarker places South Dakota State as #8 among all-time greatest FCS football programs. That's about right, no argument there. But he concludes by saying, "Two-time Super Bowl champion and Hall of Famer Jim Langer and star Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert remain the two most prominent football products of the school."
Interesting. You would think that the player who has scored more points than anyone else in the history of the National Football League, four-time Super Bowl champion Adam Vinatieri, would be on the list. Less egregious, you would also think the 1965 NFL MVP whose number was retired by the Philadelphia Eagles, #44 Pete Retzlaff, would be mentioned.
Update 6/8/24: The article apparently has been updated, but these omissions still have not been addressed.
