Uniform History: David Dillon, an end from Ashmont MA was the first known player to wear this jersey. Defensive end Paul Shaw wore the number 46 for three years during the early 80's. Jason Pahopek a defensive end wore the number, and you can read more about him in a throw back edition of the Heights. Brian Maye, a captain also was the most penalized BC player during the betting scandal also wore the number. Two recent punters have worn the number as well, Johnny Ayers and current Jets punter Ryan Quigley. 

Because I couldn't find any linkage or film on EJ Fortenberry, here is the music video Santa Monica (E.J's hometown) by Everclear, one of the worst bands of the 90s.
