Nicklaus Named ‘Big Ten Icon’ No. 18
Legendary Ohio State golfer to be profiled at 9 PM ET on Tuesday, Sept. 28
CHICAGO – Jack Nicklaus has been named Big Ten Icon No. 18. The Big Ten Icons countdown, presented by Discover, continues at 9 PM ET on Tuesday, Sept. 28, with a profile of the legendary Ohio State golfer. The episode includes new, exclusive interviews with Nicklaus, Bob Knight, Arnold Palmer and many others.
New episodes of the 20-episode series, hosted by legendary broadcaster Keith Jackson, debut at 9 PM ET every Tuesday night through the end of football season and into the spring.
As a sophomore at Ohio State, Nicklaus entered the 1960 U.S. Open and finished just two shots behind Arnold Palmer and set a new U.S. Open amateur record with a tournament score of 282.
In 1961, he won the Big Ten Championship by 16 strokes and also captured the NCAA championships for the Buckeyes. The Columbus native and lifelong Buckeye fan was the first player to win the NCAA individual championship and the U.S. Amateur in the same year.
Growing up in Columbus, Nicklaus loved football and considered playing football for the Buckeyes. In the Icons episode, Nicklaus tells the story of how his athletic career took another path thanks to some advice that Woody Hayes gave to his father. “(Hayes said), ‘He’s got a real future in the game of golf. If he was my son, and if I was going to offer some advice: I’d keep him as far away from my game as I could.'”
In the episode, Nicklaus talks about the recruiting process and a missed opportunity to play for the Buckeyes’ basketball team. “I was recruited by a lot of schools to play golf, but I was recruited by Ohio State to play basketball. I was recruited with (John) Havlicek and (Jerry) Lucas and that group. I elected not to play basketball. I think I would have loved to have been on that team because they won the national championship.”
In an essay for www.BigTenIcons.com, former Chicago Tribune sports editor Dan McGrath wrote, “it’s no exaggeration to say Nicklaus revolutionized golf, setting records that might never be approached, let alone broken.” To read the full essay and to watch a video feature on Nicklaus, visit his Big Ten Icons locker at www.BigTenIcons.com.
The No. 1 Big Ten Icon will be revealed around the 2011 Big Ten Men’s Basketball Tournament. Big Ten Icons is the network’s most ambitious multi-platform initiative to date. The program is counting down the top 50 student-athletes in Big Ten history, based solely on their collegiate playing careers. Icons 50 through 21, listed below, were revealed at BigTenIcons.com.
Fans can visit www.BigTenIcons.com to see a complete roster of Big Ten Icons, which also features essays, video and other key facts about each Icon’s career. Viewers can also participate in the “Talk of the Locker Room” contest with a chance to win the $10,000 grand prize. Weekly winners will take home a 55-inch Philips HD television.
Big Ten Network President Mark Silverman said the series will engage and spark conversation among sports fans everywhere. “What will make Big Ten Icons stand out is the depth of the storytelling,” he said. “The rankings themselves are sure to generate quite a bit of discussion.”
Big Ten Network Announces Nine-Game Men’s Ice Hockey Schedule
Highlighted by “The Big Chill at the Big House” between Michigan and Michigan State, the Big Ten Network will televise nine men’s ice hockey games this winter, featuring all five hockey-playing Big Ten universities.
