    Canes fans: Where ya from?

    I think I remember that from back when we were recruiting Capel, but not sure. Not much I remember these days. Both went to Hernando H.S. Both from Brooksville. In those small towns, most people are related anyway.

    That’s it. His father lived in Melbourne and was an engineer. He started a recruiting publication but it didn’t take off. Talked to him years ago.

    I think Darryl Oliver has a UM football related podcast or YT interview program. I came across it about a year or so ago.

    I used to meet a lot of ND fans back in the late '80's. I also got to know some UM fans and alums who went to Catholic school, and they told me kids in Catholic school class sang the ND fight song.

    You also missed the great Chuck Foreman, one of the greatest players in UM history. He was a dynamic RB, with awesome jukes and spin moves. He was also one of the best receivers in the league. I loved to watch the Vikings back in that era even though I was a Dolphins fan.

    I've tried to go there. They say it's a nice place for a change of pace. But I can never find it on a map and my phone GPS starts buzzing and whirring and making strange noises when I type it in.

    Canes fans: Where ya from?

    I remember walking away from the stadium and onto the campus after that game. Never saw such sad looking despondent young people in my life. They were truly shell shocked. A friend of mine was on the team plane going back to Miami. Said the Miami players were singing the Michigan fight song on...

    Great to see that you're still going strong. I guess the heart procedure you had down at Jackson worked well. Her husband was Doug Davis, our starting fullback for a time in the late'50's. Played with Fran Curci, our All-American QB.

    I think RVACane said he is in that area. Don't remember. One of the greatest players in UM history, Chuck Foreman, was from Frederick. The "Spin Doctor."

    Canes fans: Where ya from?

    Did you have cars parking on you lawn for games? Back in the '50's and '60's, the games were always Friday night at 8:15 pm. Parking was always tight around the Bowl so many of the houses in the immediate vicinity let people park on their lawns and charge them. They jam cars in down the side of...

    Remember when he played for Maryland. I can't remember who was coach there, it might have been Bobby Ross, or maybe it was Bill Dooley? No, Bill Dooley did not coach there. It was Jerry Claiborne who left VaTech to go to Maryland. I know it was a guy who also had a Virginia Tech connection. I...

    What was the name of that track guy who went to LSU and flamed out? I think his name was Carter. I think it was his father who started a recruiting service about 20 years ago and it flamed out too. I believe Anthony might have been his cousin.
