Countdown to Football

Ouch. I remember that pic.

I Don't Exist always finds some good ones that nobody else finds.... frankly forgot about that pix.

Dillon is probably still feeling that one today.

Didn't we block like 3 punts in that game and killed Stanford or am I on crack?

 

[mchammer]

We killed Stanford that day, but lost earlier to NC State due to 3 blocked punts.

Good times.

That Stanford game was early in the season and a day game. The temp on the field was over 100 degrees. Stanford had been practicing in 70's degree weather. They absolutely wilted in the 2nd half.

Charles Hunter (84-88)- Hunter made his debut as a redshirt freshman in the 85 opener against Missouri. He set a new school record for most rushing yards in the first quarter or maybe any quarter and then was replaced by Metcalf and hardly saw the field again that night. He had a big game against Houston with 187yds and wound up with 717 for the year. Then Akers moved him to LB and he only saw the field sparingly if I recall correctly. I'd like to have seen Metcalf as more of a slot guy or line up at different spots on the field and left Hunter at RB but Fred didn't ask me.

 

[BevoJoe]

Fred never asked nobody about nothing.

 

[WorsterMan]

Fred never asked nobody about nothing.

Freddie didn't need to ask anybody Joe, hell he knew he knew everything about football

 

[BevoJoe]

Yes he did..........and it showed. Ready Freddy blew two chances at an NC. One in 1977 and again in 1983.

A lot of good #25 prospects coming up for Tuesday!

#25 FB Phil Harris, 1963-1965

Tommy Nobis, Anthony King, Phil Harris & Hix Green. This photo may be when they were on the Freshman team in 1962.... look how young Nobis looks - he was bigger and looked more mature in photos of him I have seen from the 1963 NC team.

RB # 25 Johnny "Ham" Jones from Hamlin TX, 1975 - 1978:

When I posted Lam Jones yesterday, I made a mental note to post Ham Jones today. So much for mental notes. Am I really that old?

Jamaal Charles, taking the handoff from Colt, in a 22-20 win over NU in Lincoln, Nebraska on 10/21/2006.

You did NOT post a photo of that play... Dadgummit

Now that's just mean and insensitive, VYFan. Some Cornhuckster fan may see this and become offended and want to leave the Big12 Confere--

Hopefully, taken in the humorous spirit you meant:

Brave Sir Robin ran away
(No!)
Bravely ran away away
(I didn't!)
When danger reared its ugly head
He bravely turned his tail and fled
(No!)
Yes, brave Sir Robin turned about
(I didn't!)
And gallantly he chickened out

Bravely taking to his feet
(I never did!)
He beat a very brave retreat
(All lies!)
Bravest of the brave, Sir Robin!
(I never!)

(Monty Python)

I think Dr. Robin got over it.

 

[LAGA4]

Man we have had some good running backs over the years.

#25 Jitter Fields DB 1982 and a slew of other Horns stopping Craig James of SMU.

Darn you Horn Swoggler - I looked up Jitter to post his photo and I did not have the courage to do it after the CB 1/1/84

 

[HornSwoggler]

Interesting story of the horrible fumble http://archive.apsportseditors.org/contest/2005/writing/over250/over250_features_third1.html

I love Fields' name, Jitter,and had to include that photo. At least, I avoided the Cotton Bowl photo.

Damn, I missed my opportunity to post my high school basketball photo. #31!
