rlh Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 (edited) Interesting question. I can think of three - Phil Beene, Eddie Brown, and Eric Westmoreland who helped UT win a National Championship. If you want to add Jasper to it, Eddie Brown not only played at UT, but also for the Cleveland Browns, Washington Redskins and Los Angeles Rams. He also played some in the USFL in the early 80s. For anyone that don't know who Eddie Brown is, ask some of the 68 and 69 Pirates. He was probably one of the few people in the Valley that had a chance at running Wigfall down. When with the Rams, he also played in the Super Bowl in January of 1980. Phil Beene helped put UT on the map with the Legendary Butt Whipping of Aladambama by Neylands Vols.

rlh Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 RLH, are you going to make any games this year or just be a radio fan again? I will be making at least 1 game in the regular season and I usually get a couple of playoff games. Last fall I wasn't counting on my dad getting sick and then passing away. Tallahassee is straight down the Georgia/Bama line to Florida. That is a haul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
