1964 Profile: Bookie Bolin

Guard
No. 63
Mississippi
"Regarded as one the top young linemen in pro football, Bolin, whose real first name is Treva, is being counted a regular bulwark for many seasons to come off his fine 1963 performance.
Drafted in the fifth round as a 'red shirt' in 1962, Bolin joined the club that season when he was ruled ineligible for any further collegiate play by the NCAA. In his rookie semester, Bookie was a part-time guard and served on the kickoff and punt return teams.
A member of Ole Miss' 1961 Sugar Bowl and 1962 Cotton Bowl squads, Bolin is aiming for coaching berth when his playing days are over."
