Nick Saban he is NOT! Class and honor spoken here.

Interesting comments in Neely's bio in a Rice Newsletter:

"Ending his coaching career in 1966, Neely finished eighth on the all-time list of winningest college coaches, with 208 victories. He still had a few good coaching years left in him, but saw that college athletics was becoming a big business, far removed from his philosophy of sport, and he had come to find the recruiting process especially distasteful. He returned to Vanderbilt to serve for many years as athletic director there.

It is quite a coincidence, but the three most- reknowned Rice coaches--John W. Heisman (Heisman Trophy honoree), Jess Neely, and Ken Hatfield, all coached at Clemson before coming to Rice."

I keep returning to this thread... to breathe deeply the Good, Clean Air of CHARACTER and INTEGRITY.

**** the gutless. **** the shallow. **** the uselessly wicked.

Hey Burnadell, here is the video I mentioned about teaching incoming foreign students about our game of football. Coach Baliff starts it off. It looks like a lot of fun for everyone involved.

Paul, thanks for posting that. I do recall them doing that but never saw the video.
