Has any NIU alum ever won a superbowl ring other than Diem???

EDIT: I just read in the Northern Star that he's the 2nd former Huskie to do this. Who was the 1st??? I'm sure this will be a good recruiting tool for Novak thats for sure.

Clarence won his ring in the '88 superbowl. He was hosted on an NIU halftime show this past season but I can't recall the game.

Doesn't he have two?

Not that I'm aware of. He has the '88 ring. I'm not sure what year he left the NFL.

He also played for the 91 Redskins championship team

*EDIT: Apparantly spent time with Washington in 91, but wasn't on the roster by time the Superbowl came around. So, now it's up in the air.

Yes, Clarence has 2 Super Bowl rings - they're sweet.

Which year is his other superbowl ring?

not sure - within a few years of his first, I think Clarence played about 4-5 years.

I wasn't able to verify if he'd picked up a ring with the '92 Redskins championship. He wasn't on the SB roster but I think he played earlier in the season.
