There are easier tasks in pro football than trying to circle big Gino's end. You certainly can't go through him, and going around him is no simpler. To make matters even worse, he harasses quarterbacks going to pass, and many's the play he has snuffed out with his charging tactics. If Gino can't get at the ball-carrier himself, he makes sure to take out the blockers.
Used almost entirely in defense in rookie year, 1949. Good at doping out opponents' plays. In final year at Notre Dame (1948) averaged 7.5 yards. Scored 8 touchdowns. AP honorable mention, All-America. Italian-American All-America. Slick carrier on offense, tough on defense. Named most valuable player in East-West game, San Francisco, 1949.
The all-time leading San Francisco scorer, Gordy is an expert at booting field goals and catching passes. A former Navy Frogman, the rugged end has topped the N.F.L. in Scoring twice and was All-Pro for two years. Gordy's timeliest boot was the 3 points that beat the Rams in '53.
