He was an all timer in the NFL and led the Eagles to back to back titles, their first and second. They have only won one since. Pretty amazing that he was an NFL star in the 40s and lived until now.

In the same way that Billy Cannon wasn't.

LSU completely dropped the ball by not promoting one of the greatest players of all time as one of our own.
