Bob Mathias averaged over 8 yards per carry in high school and was considered the best fullback on the west coast. He played offense and defense, kicked off, punted, place-kicked, and returned kicks. He averaged 18 points per game in basketball and was All-State. He won state championships in discus, shot put, high hurdles, and low hurdles. And, by the way, he won the Olympic decathlon at age 17.

What does it take to get your name on this ballot?

You have to be the youngest-ever winner of an Olympic T&F medal.  Oh wait...
