4Terry Beasley was an All-American at Auburn in 1970 and ’71. Malcolm Emmons-USA TODAY SportsBeasley, who for decades suffered from the effects of a number of concussions during his playing career, paired up with Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Pat Sullivan and earned All-America honors in both 1970 and 1971. He still holds the school receiving records with 2,507 yards and 29 touchdowns in a three-year career.
Beasley was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2002. His No. 88 is one of only three Auburn football jerseys to be retired, along with Sullivan’s No. 7 and Bo Jackson’s No. 34.
Pat Sullivan was the leader, the quarterback, the Heisman Trophy winner, but the guy who made that whole passing game go was Beasley, former Auburn athletic director and sports information director David Housel said. He is an Auburn legend. He is the standard by which all other Auburn receivers will be measured.
Beasley also holds Auburns record for consecutive games with a touchdown catch (8), along with 100-yard receiving games in a season (6) and a career (12).
