Kuechenberg declined an invitation to the White House in 2013, when President Barack Obama honored the '72 Dolphins team. He said it was a political decision based on his views of the Obama administration.
RIP Kooch! You were my all-time favorite Dolphins' player.
Larry Csonka probably weighed more than anyone on that OLine! Yes, rest well Kooch.
Geez, Jim Taylor passed away recently too. Do they even make men like this anymore?
Kuch was a tough guy from Gary, Indiana - went to Notre Dame. His Brother Rudy played Linebacker for the Packers. Tough Guys from the Region.
There’s a picture out there somewhere, Kuechenberg and Larry Little, close together, pulling around the right side on a running play. The shot is from straight ahead, what a defensive player would see coming at him. You did not want to be in that position if you were on the other team.
RIP.
