Mack Yoho, a 2010 Miami Athletics Hall of Famer recently passed away.

Yoho was a First-Team All-MAC member for the football team in 1957 and also earned First-Team All-Ohio honors that same year. He helped spearhead Miami to a pair of MAC Championships, winning the league title in 1955 and 1957. A three-year letterwinner at Miami, Yoho and the Red and White never lost a MAC contest, compiling an impressive 14-0-1 league record during his three-year playing stint and amassed a 22-4-1 overall record. He helped Miami to an undefeated 9-0 season, including a 5-0 MAC record, under Coach Ara Parseghian in 1955.

During his senior campaign in which he was a team captain, Miami again went undefeated in MAC play (5-0) under Coach John Pont. After Miami, Yoho spent two years in the Canadian Football League (1958-59) before playing in the National Football League from 1960-64. He spent his first four NFL seasons with the Buffalo Bills and his final season with the Boston Patriots.
