I remember. In fact, I read some detailed history on that recently. Football is very expensive for a smaller, private university not named Norte Dame. USCw is very large, unlike UM, with a much longer football history and larger alumni base. I recall when we brought Fran Curci left Tampa to...

I remember my dad having season tickets in the early ‘50’s, maybe before that, in the late ‘40’s. I remember him going to football games on Friday night to the OB. I loved the stadium back then, it would be a pleasant, not-too-hot evening and we would walk round and round the circular ramps til...

I guess it wasn’t Monty Trainer’s?

I agree with the statement about Saban. I’ve talked to at least one longtime UM fan who was very knowledgeable about the program. She said that we would have won a NC sooner with Saban. She said he could get any recruit he wanted. She was the wife of a former UM player and, based on my...

But you can, and should, study UM football history. Look for some of Jim Martz’ books on the internets.

No, but some very good top ten teams.

When did you stop playing? Did you ever matriculate at UM?

One of my favorite eras, the second half of the ‘60’s. For several years, we had some very stout defenses, with the Stork, Bob Tatarek, Tony Cline, maybe Gene Trosch, a bunch of others...can’t remember them all. We had some trouble putting together a highly-potent offense. Maybe we didn’t have...

Who was playing for Tampa back then? Leon McQuay? Matuszak? Freddie Solomon? They had some good players then disappeared from college football.

Interesting, I remember watching the OSU 1983 team in a bowl game. I had no idea that most of that coaching staff would end end up at UM a few months later. I didn’t pay much attention, just had a vague recollection that the OSU team emphasized speed. That made sense because I remember JJ being...

Just for the information of many on this board who think I was making a racial statement, our starting two WRs on that team were Brodsky (son of coach Joe Brodsky) and Mike Rodrigue, a converted QB from up in the panhandle. They were not known for speed, but there other skills as receivers...

And by an Average White Boy.....

Dementia doesn’t mean you drop off....just watch.

Was Don Bosseler in your class?

I think I played in that game, but I don’t remember for sure.

It’s not for good reason.
