In the early 70s he came through our dorm and we got to meet him. Seemed like a true gentleman based on the short conversation we had with him. Wish we gotten a pic.

he is quite the celeb in C.Stn even though his time was in the 1920s
really, all he did was stand up during a game when everyone was falling, and he didn't even get to play.
while volunteering to play is a nice gesture, i think deifying him is overdoing things.
his fame/adulation far exceed his achievements and deeds

no offense.

He gave Randolph Duke's mother a good old fashioned horse effin'.

Nice troll job...

I will respond any way.

I wouldn't say he has be "deified" but he certainly started something that has transcended what the student body represents for generations. While you are correct he never got to play, he stood ready to go in just in case he was needed and that in my opinion was pretty damn cool and worthy of the accolades he has received over the years. Here was a guy who didn't play football, but was willing to get out there and fill a spot just to make sure his team had enough players to continue on. In my opinion that tells me that he was a great Aggie and willing to do whatever it took to support his team and I admire that.

He was my grandmothers eye doctor in Corpus Christi.

Heard he went on a blind date with Medusa somewhere between Kyle Field and the MSC.

there's a true idiot and ass (same guy achieving both) above, but that's all the due im gonna give that loser….

it is rather humorous though that he thinks we are glorifying what this particular person actually did on that particular day instead of the ideal it represents.

But then again, he's an idiot and an ass…

Damn this was good. Can't believe I missed this for seven years.

I heard someone saw him walking through the streets of SOHO in the rain.

His hair was perfect.

He was AgCPA's grandmother's eye doctor in Corpus.

Is this true? How do we know this is true, or mistaken identity?

Good point. I mean if she could see, she wouldn't have ever met him.

Well, I guess it may or may not be accurate.

He surgically repaired and saved my dad's ('57) eye. Dad was hit by a rock while playing intermural softball in 1955.

Intermural softball was a bit more western back in the day!

How the eff did this happen?!?!

You get hit with enough rocks in the wrong place your balls will get soft too.
