And even though my alma mater's athletic programs have hit some rough spots in recent years, there still is reason for me to be proud:

Congratulations, Coach.

He may have been a Tarhole, but he was a damn good coach. Plus, he gets bonus points for being able to put up with my man Phil Ford for so many years.

Coaching qualities aside, it seems likely he is receiving this honor more for his role in ending segregation and discrimination in, at least, his little corner of the South.

And you just WISH Phil Ford had played at Moo U.

That too, he was a great man in any aspect really.

And knowing Phil, I can safely say, he's definitely one of y'alls products.
