Have heard many behind the scenes stories from the Curly years and some of the stuff that went on was crazy.


What you got?

I’ve heard some good ones about the ‘85 trip to Memphis for the Liberty Bowl.

I was at that Liberty Bowl game. Man it was cold that night. A former player told me they were each given $500 and told to be in Memphis i think on the 27th. I heard guys were riding in the back of pickup trucks on the way up there from Baton Rouge. They were piling as many players as they could into vehicles to save on gas $$. We hardly practiced at all before the game. If it wasn't for a punt return for a TD by Norman Jefferson we would have been shutout by a mediocre Baylor team.
