Dick is one of a number of rugged linemen to graduate from West Virginia University into professional football. Other distinguished Mountaineer alumni to make the grade include Sam Huff, Joe Stydahar, Bruce Bosley and Chuck Howley. Guesman was one of the top 1960 draft choices of the Baltimore Colts, but the Titans snatched him away at the start of last season. He served as a defensive tackle replacement for Sid Youngelman and Tom Saidock, and in the pinch he showed he could play on either end of the defensive rushline. Those who have followed his career predict a bright future for this tough Pittsburgh, Pa. resident.

Guesman wore the number 72 from 1960-61.
