Thank you for sharing a great memory for us.
We had a racial incidence where 3 black guys beat up a white guy in the locker room after football season was over. White kid's parents were not happy, to say the least. I'm talking loading guns and vowing vengeance! The next school day, the word was out. Full on race fight at school. Ineffective principal and vice-principal were shell-shocked. They called in coach. He sat down with the principal, white kid and his parents. Listened to them rant, gave some advice, calmed them down....then walked out into the hall and asked the white kid he liked his attitude and wanted him to come join the wrestling team. That's all it took. I have no idea what he said to the black students, but not one fist was thrown that day, and it was all over.
Like I said, toughest guy I ever met, he had a way of making you want to live up to his standard. The kind of motivator that was a combination of drill sergeant and philosopher.
