Thomas Ryan (American football)

On a third down, at some point near the middle of the second quarter, Texas' Ivan Robertson, with the Commodores' Tom Ryan and Tex Bradford running after him, threw a pass not near a single Longhorn; which was intercepted by Vanderbilt's captain Pink Wade.

[2] In the effective Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association (SIAA) championship game, Vanderbilt tied the favored Georgia Bulldogs in the final quarter using a trick onside punt kicked by Ryan.

[6] Ryan did not return for the 1922 season, preferring to stay an adjunct of the oil industry in Tampico, Mexico.

In the 3–0 loss to national champion Michigan, Ryan had a fine game, out-punting the famed Harry Kipke.

[9] The first touchdown drive of the 16–0 win over Minnesota ended when Ryan broke through a hole created by Bob Rives, finishing a 63-yard march.
