As a collegian at Oklahoma, Bolinger earned consensus all-America recognition in 1955 when he captained the Sooners’ national championship team that led the nation in rushing and total offense. Bolinger finished ninth in the Heisman Trophy balloting in 1955 and was named All-Big Eight Conference twice. The 70-year-old Bolinger, a native of Muskogee, Oklahoma, and his wife, Barbara, reside in Tempe, Arizona. They have three daughters – Sharon, Susan, and Sandra – and four grandchildren.
