5 . Maiorana, Sal, and Scott Pitoniak. Slices of Orange : Great Games and Performers in Syracuse University Sports History. New York: Syracuse UP, 2005.

This book really helped me. I liked how it told me about his career in Syracuse. It gave me insight about what he did, and how much he really enjoyed playing football. It also gave me a mini biography of his life. I also loved that fact that I found a book on him because books are some what a better source then a website.

6. Ernie Davis Middle School. Elmira City Schools, Elmira. 23 Oct. 2008

This shows a picture of the Ernie Davis Middle School. This shows that the city had a lot of respect and praise for Ernie Davis to make a school named after him.

7.
Low, W.A., and Virgil A. Clift, eds. Encyclopedia Of Black America. New York, NY: McGraw-Hill Book Company.

This book helped me a tad bit. It told me about the other African American winners of the Heisman Trophy which were Mike Garrett, O.J. Simpson, Archie Griffin, Tony Dorsett, Billy Sims, and Charles White. It shows me that they were now more open to give the heisman trophy to other African Americans after it was given to Ernie Davis.
