I was fortunate to meet him at SEC legends setup at the SEC championship game.

A man who was truly humble.

He was “just, kind, and humble.”

I saw him in Huntsville a few years back promoting his book at an ITAT recruiting roundup event.

Seemed nice and humbled.

Wasn't there an autographed jersey of his that hung in Cheeburger Cheeburger?
