Did Biden really play college football?
I think Ohio would be mad if they found out Biden never played college football after bragging his team beat them in 1963. The year Biden said he was almost arrested in Ohio. Biden was never there in 1963.
Truth is Biden never played for University of Deleware football.
All them Biden college football stories were just Biden folklore made up by Biden.
There is only one mention of Biden at the University web site and it's a quote by Biden coming in and playing for Scotty Duncan his freshman year in 1961. Link here hope it works: http://www.udel.edu/udaily/2009/sep/champs090508.html
It's just a quote from Biden. If you check the yearbook in 1961 and look at the freshman football team roster photo with names I can't find Biden. Duncan is there as freshman coach.
Link to University of Deleware yearbook 1961, check page 162: http://dspace.udel.edu:8080/dspace/bitstream/handle/19716/5674/1961_06_Sports.pdf?sequence=7
Also no mention of Biden in 61' 62' 63' 64' football roster posted at fighting hens college almanac fan base :

I picked year 1963 since Biden mentioned it a couple weeks ago in Ohio about him and his team beating Ohio , almost arrested etc..
Also in Biden's own book he mentions not wanting to play college football so he can travel weekends to visit gf/ wife.
Since Biden been stealing speeches that forced him out of the 1988 presidential run (kinnock scandal) and Biden caught plagiarism in college. I think he never played College football.
Just a hunch. It sure would tick off Ohio if he was never there in 1963.
You would think if the VP of USA was a halfback at a college there would be a photo, even stats like yardage etc. nothing on Biden.
Just saying....thanks
That’s funny, Rayan should say that just for a joke.
The incident report says that he was under for no more than eight to ten minutes.
That would of been a great picture!
I can’t even find a picture of Biden near a football field in 1961.
Strange he didn’t make the freshman team yearbook picture.
did Delaware have a freshman-only team? Maybe he was on that. A number of schools, back then, had both a varsity and a freshman-only team.
That's Biden on the right.

sorry - read the whole post now - duh. Helps to read the entire thing. sorry
Yeah Biden had 5 deferments. Was busy scoring touch downs on a team that never listed him in 61’ 62’ 63’ 64’ yearbook.
Maybe he was captain of the pocket pool team...

The link above is freshman football team photo and names in 1961, no Biden
He had no assets to protect.
Nice! Biden such a blockhead.
Anyone have links for those handy...need a good laugh today.
No problem.
I just think its strange the VP of USA played college football and not one picture or mention at his own school.
No one even knows his jersey number.
We do know that Ronald Reagan played football in college, while majoring in economics, coaching and being captain of the swim team, running track, being cheerleader for the basketball team, president of the boosters club, yearbook feature editor, in the student senate, and then becoming student body president.
Add story teller to the list.
It’s strange no media checked his college yearbook before. It’s all on line and no football Biden.
Wonder why there isn’t one mention of Biden playing football in his own school or local paper.
I think if Biden had a picture of him in a college football uniform he would of showed it at all them college campaign stops.
Well, I don’t know about any of that but betting Biden is lying is a slam dunk.
He did play football in college. He was the goalpost. Players would routinley kick the ball between the goalpost.
(Doesn't that explain everything?)
“RELEASE JOE BIDENS COLLEGE TRANSCRIPTS.
(That would be the funniest thing EVAH!)”
And the only grades he would have listed on his transcript would be ‘G’s (for Gaffes).
