By random chance, I got seated with him, Bud Ford and Haywood at a baseball banquet. All three were nice and cut up and they never forgot my face after that.
Heard Gus once telling a story about after one of Neyland's teams won the Gator Bowl. Evidently the winning team was presented with a gator skin football. They got drunk and kicked field goals in their hotel suite all night with it. Caused quite a bit of damage to the room.
Did Dooley just talk about "the staff that are going to be touching the guys" at the end of that video?
Definitely the overall best, most professional, well done UT video I've seen. I might argue for any school. There have been far too many of the TAMU, "Party in the U G A", etc videos lately. Tyler Bray put Uncle Rico to shame throwing it over the stadium.
The pan out shot of him running up the field is sick. Dude is so fast. I love what Eric Berry said about him being ready for the league now. EB busted out the imo, jmo too haha. His opinion is all I need to hear on the matter.
Haywood loved to talk about how John Ward drove around in his convertible and how his wife made him take care of the flowers since he retired
Seeing the Neyland video, it makes me realize I don't think I have met a single person that played for the General that did not have 100% and total respect and love for the guy.
How awesome is it that those with knowledge of Neyland's child prostitution ring are quickly dying out? Within a few years we'll be guaranteed of no one ever knowing.
Whomever is producing these things has an ear for quality music, and which heavily leans on blues (recall the 10,000 slaves of the Dooley's pants video). Here's the source who covered Springfield's, "For What It's Worth", used at the beginning of the video: [YOUTUBE]-Uhhdhcnthg[/YOUTUBE]
