Bunn Hackney (December 1, 1903 – March 17, 1999)[1] was a college basketball and football player for the North Carolina Tar Heels. He was an All-Southern running guard on the basketball team, with Jack Cobb.[2][3][4] He had previously played for Merrill Patton "Footsie" Knight at the YMCA in Durham.[5] The origin story for the Rameses mascot is his rubbing a ram's head prior to making a 30-yard drop kick to defeat VMI 3-0 in 1924.[6] He was later a referee in both sports; a head linesman in football.[7]
