Not really Mt. Rushmore, but Marty Akins was the only quarterback that ran a wishbone offense to be voted All American.

Tough pick for me but it would be from the group, Earl, Bobby Layne, Nobis, Ricky, and of course Vince.  Street was very good too.

Not sure why Street doesn't get more love ... 20-0 as a starter, beating Arky in the 15-14 classic and winning the Natty in 1969.  

Different era. In 1969 he threw three TDs and 10 INTs.

Man, this is getting tough. Are we limited to just one Mount Rushmore?

 

Earl and Vince (and probably Nobis) are definites for me, but then I think about Layne, Street, Ricky, etc. and my head starts to hurt, but in a good way.
