Michael Earl Nolan (born January 11, 1911, in Vancouver, British Columbia - died April 6, 1991, in Tucson, Arizona) was an American football player, boxer and a United States Marine. Nicknamed "King Kong" for his size,[1][2] he played college football for the Arizona Wildcats, where he was twice an All-Border Conference selection and in 1936 was All-America honorable mention. He later played professionally, the first Wildcat to do so, for the Chicago Cardinals of the National Football League from 1937 to 1938.[3][4]

As an amateur boxer, Nolan won the Southwestern AAU heavyweight title in 1934, 1935 and 1936.[5]

Nolan served in the United States Marine Corps during World War II where he rose to the rank of captain and was awarded the Silver Star.[6]
