Title: Re: Chasing History Post by: Tnphil on August 05, 2016, 04:25:05 EDT Like several on here I'm sure....I've been blessed to watch each one on that list play.

Yep, from the Crossville Comet (later Blue Angel) to Thunder Title: Re: Chasing History Post by: Tnphil on August 05, 2016, 05:06:26 EDT Saw his last game in the Liberty Bowl. And it was glorious. :thumbup:
Title: Re: Chasing History Post by: volsboy on August 05, 2016, 04:19:15 EDT Curt Watson......what a blast from my past. I thought Garner, Stanback and Morgan would be close to these numbers and on the list. I thought wrong.

Title: Re: Chasing History Post by: Coupe De VOL on August 05, 2016, 07:04:45 EDT Great names on that list. My fav is probably Cobb, despite the troubles he got himself into. I think he is doing well for himself now. Another back with a troubled history that I like is Hubert Simpson - probably one of the greatest Fullbacks we ever had? 1500 yds in what was probably 2 full seasons. He had a great game against the Irish in '79. We could have probably used him in 1980, but Johnny gave him his walking papers.
Title: Re: Chasing History Post by: BanditVol on August 06, 2016, 06:30:43 EDT Curt Watson's the only one I haven't seen. I may not have seen Johnnie Jones in person, but saw (and heard) him play plenty on TV/radio.

Yeah, but that is only because we are old, Philly. Not as old as Pirate, however. :dance: Title: Re: Chasing History Post by: PirateVOL on August 06, 2016, 09:19:31 EDT Yeah, but that is only because we are old, Philly. Just because I can I saw the Swamp Rat play ... :dunno:Not as old as Pirate, however. :dance: |
