Played w him. a great college player who at Miami broke many color barriers along w Chuck Forman of Vikings fame,.  He was one yr behind the Black Miami player Ray Bellamy to be FIRST to play at Alabama among other SEC venues. Now they allow blacks to play in even the south. He was a very good Pro-Bowl NFL player as well.   Thought a great deal of all three, it took courage to face even death threats as Miami played on as an Major Independent

He lost me when I heard him on radio... perhaps w Shameful Hanity saying the NAACP was founded by socialists and 'commies' out to to further enslave blacks.

NAACP The Race Riot of 1908 in Springfield, Illinois, the state capital and President Abraham Lincoln's hometown, was a catalyst showing the urgent need for an effective civil rights organization in the U.S. In the decades around the turn of the century, the rate of LYNCHINGS OF BLACKS , particularly men, was at an all-time high.  

Utah is a good place for him ,,,,,, maybe find the gold plates??
