quote:
Mr. Cunningham is famously said to have done more to integrate Alabama in 60 minutes than Martin Luther King Jr. did in 20 years.
That famous quote was from the famous Jerry Claiborne, the famous football coach at the famous University of Kentucky and a former player for Bryant.
At least according to the Showtime documentary Against the Tide.

That's just another example of so much mythology surrounding that game. I'm sure hundreds of links can be provided for both sides.
