After completing an undefeated record
in High School in Portsmouth Ohio, Chuck received a Football scholarship
to University of Toledo. While getting his degree in Business Economics,
Chuck, as Quarterback, led his UT Rockets to a record breaking 35—0
college record. He was 8th in the 1971 Heismann Trophy standings.
Despite this record, Chuck was passed over by the NFL draft as Quarterback.
Although offered other positions, Chuck remained committed to becoming
a Professional Quarterback and chose to go to the CFL where the
only thing that mattered was his ability. In 1972 he led the Hamilton
Tigercats to a Grey Cup Championship, winning MVP as Quarterback.
He also played for the Toronto Argonauts and the Winnipeg Blue Bombers,
and played in the CFL for 7 years.
Following his athletic career, Chuck has become a successful and
well respected manager within the financial services industry. Currently
he is the Regional Director of Investors Group Financial Services
in Mississauga Central. Chuck can also be seen on CP24 speaking
on related financial topics and heard daily on Wave Radio 94.7.
He is frequently asked to be a keynote speaker at corporate functions
and sports events around the GTA.
His sincerity and commitment to the community is shown as an active
supporter of a number of Charities, as well as serving on The Boards
of The Mississauga Sports Council and the Living Arts Centre where
he is the Committee chair of Business Affairs.
