There are a bunch of former players that are not in the social media spotlight that I'd like to know what they are up to professionally. Collin Peak is one of those guys.
Ditto Richard Mullaney.

i like watching some of the old games on youtube. i was curious about guys like jim bob harris, wilbur jackson, craig sanders and theres so many more. anyone know how these guys are doing?


I've been on a kick watching some old 70s games. Fun to watch the wishbone in operation. Steadman Shealy couldn't be any more of a wishbone QB if he tried. Small, quick white guy who made fast decisions at the mesh/pitch point. And Steve Whitman at FB was a stud.

Watched the entire Miami Sugar Bowl again a few nights ago. Tommy Johnson should’ve been MVP. Interception that led to a Td, strip fumble that stopped them from taking a 10-3 lead, 1 sack, 5 pass deflections. Miami players talked shite til the very end. Barker threw 2 Int’s in first 10 minutes but the second was like a punt.

Lassic and Teague were amazing but ^^^ that’s a day!

Also, watched the Penn St game where we got hosed, in full. I forgot we were down 34-7 and we scored first (walter to joey jones on a slant). Our secondary was really bad in the first half.

You could see the mountains from inside the stadium back then which was really cool. They should’ve never closed that endzone in. Beautiful.

I rewatched this the other night, too.

Granted, I was 12 years old at the time of the game so my memory of it wasn't the best, but holy shite, our offensive performance in the first half was abysmal.

Well the passing was bad but the rushing we were getting about 5 yards a carry.

I know where T J. Yeldon is as he is about 10 minutes up the road. What’s funny is I was curious to find out he was still in Daphne

Played for the Chiefs for about 4 years, won a Super Bowl ring with them.

I think he does private coaching or something like that now.
