We lost a good man in James Wright, Jr. ... Chief of Police. As brilliant of an idea as that greeting was in his efforts to scare off telemarketers, Jimmy's mind for football was even more genius. He was an innovator in the sport and a great talker and thinker of the game of football. He was an amazing Aggie and husband to Millie and father and grandfather and friend.

Jimmy Wright will be missed by anyone and everyone that was lucky enough to have met him and call him friend!

I love that story about how he answered the phone..."Jimmy Wright, Chief of Police"
That is genius.

There are some really good segments on TexAgs Radio with Jimmy. He explained who he is and shared stories about his time at Texas A&M as a player, and well as coaching, etc.

It would be cool if we could find those and add them to this thread.

I always enjoyed listening to his stories when he came on TexAgs. One of the good ones, he'll be missed.

And, sorry for your loss, Gabe, as it was easy to see your affection for him just in your time on TA radio with him.
