He played college football for the University of Michigan and professional football for the Detroit Lions. Early yearsTopor was born in East Chicago, Indiana in 1930 and graduated from East Chicago Roosevelt High School in 1949.[2] He played on two Indiana state championship teams and was an Honorable Mention All-American high school player in 1948.[1][3] University of MichiganTopor enrolled at the University of Michigan where he played football for the Michigan Wolverines football teams from 1950 to 1952. He played on the 1950 Michigan Wolverines football team that won the Big Ten Conference championship and defeated the University of California in the 1951 Rose Bowl.[4] A two-way player, Topor started seven games at quarterback and eight games as linebacker for the 1951 Wolverines.[5][6][7] In 1951, Topor also "became the center of a faculty dispute over whether Michigan employed double scholastic standards for athletes and nonathletes."[8] Topor left the campus for a time, but he returned in 1952.[9] Head coach Bennie Oosterbaan reported that Topor had both improved his school work and "emerged as a man."[8] In September 1952, a feature story from the Associated Press reported that a fit and dedicated Topor had reinvigorated the Wolverines with a new spirit: "Not the least of the factors in Michigan's dark horse role in the 1952 football campaign is an improved team spirit. And Coach Benny Oosterbaan and his staff attribute much of this to Ted Topor, the 212-pound senior quarterback from East Chicago, Ind."[8] Topor started all nine games at quarterback for the 1952 Wolverines and was selected as the team's Most Valuable Player.[10] Detroit LionsTopor was selected by the Detroit Lions in the 1953 NFL Draft. Before starting his professional football career, he was inducted into the U.S. Army during the Korean War. Topor was one of 226 NFL personnel who served in the military during the Korean War.[11] After serving two years in the military, Topor was discharged in September 1955 and played at the linebacker position for the Detroit Lions in the 1955 NFL season.[12][13][14] However, his football career was cut short by injuries.[2] Later yearsAfter his playing career ended, Topor was the coach of the semi-pro Calumet Steelers for several years in the late 1950s and early 1960s.[1][15][16] Topor was inducted into the Indiana Football Hall of Fame in 2003.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|title=Ted Topor profile|publisher=Indiana Football Hall of Fame|url=http://www.indiana-football.org/?q=node/672}} {{Michigan Wolverines quarterback navbox}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Topor, Ted}}2. ^1 {{cite news|author=Matt Douthett|title=Ted Topor selected as People's Choice Legend at South Shore Sports Legends events|publisher=nwi.com|date=2009-08-29|url=http://nwitimes.com/sports/local/article_58f7826d-e6fa-5d2e-8961-335fc7ccc1fa.html}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Ted Topor Obituary|url=http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/nwitimes/obituary.aspx?pid=185740459|accessdate=24 February 2018|ref=The Times}} 4. ^{{cite news|title=1950 Football Team|publisher=University of Michigan|url=http://bentley.umich.edu/athdept/football/fbteam/1950fbt.htm}} 5. ^{{cite news|title=1951 Football Team|publisher=University of Michigan|url=http://bentley.umich.edu/athdept/football/fbteam/1951fbt.htm}} 6. ^{{cite news|title=Topor Gives Bennie Happy Grid Problem: Versatile Fullback Plays Both Ways|newspaper=Detroit Free Press|date=September 27, 1951|page=30|url=https://freep.newspapers.com/clip/3681095/topor_gives_bennie_happy_grid_problem/}} 7. ^{{cite news|title=Extra Duty for Topor: U-M Back to Play 'Both Ways' at Iowa|newspaper=Detroit Free Press|date=October 18, 1951|page=29|url=https://freep.newspapers.com/clip/3681104/extra_duty_for_topor/}} 8. ^1 2 {{cite news|author=John Mayhew|title=Ted Topor Fires 'M' Spirit For MSC Game|newspaper=The News-Palladium (AP story)|date=1952-09-19}} 9. ^{{cite news|title=Topor Given Green Light in Studies|newspaper=Detroit Free Press|date=February 15, 1952|page=20|url=https://freep.newspapers.com/clip/3681119/topor_given_green_light_in_studies/}} 10. ^{{cite news|title=1952 Football Team|publisher=University of Michigan|url=http://bentley.umich.edu/athdept/football/fbteam/1952fbt.htm}} 11. ^{{cite web|title=Football and America: The Korean War Honor Roll |publisher=Pro Football Hall of Fame |url=http://www.profootballhof.com/history/general/war/korean/honor_roll.aspx |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://www.webcitation.org/6KqpijpGz?url=http://www.profootballhof.com/history/general/war/korean/honor_roll.aspx |archivedate=2013-11-03 |df= }} 12. ^{{cite web|title=Ted Topor profile |publisher=databasefootball.com |url=http://www.databasefootball.com/players/playerpage.htm?ilkid=TOPORTED01 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20111123100241/http://databasefootball.com/players/playerpage.htm?ilkid=TOPORTED01 |archivedate=2011-11-23 |df= }} 13. ^{{cite news|title=Waivers on Ricca Asked|newspaper=Morning Herald|date=1955-11-01}} ("The Lions announced that Ted Topor, former Michigan linebacker, has replaced Ricca on their roster.
