Met him twice, once in Starkville before the 1980 LSU-State basketball game he was doing and then again before the 1995 Auburn football game.
He was SEC basketball prior to ESPN. Until the late 1970's, if you lived in the South the only basketball game you got was "TVS'" SEC game of the week with John Ferguson doing play by play and Joe Dean doing color. Every team was on at least once with generally Kentucky,Vandy,Tennessee and Alabama on twice.Dean was always so enthusiastic."John, Kevin Grevey really got after it."
He'll be missed.
