Later he had a good run at State in the early 80's w/Bob Tyler's recruits and then started sliding down by 1985 after which he stepped down as State's coach.

I always liked him. Down to earth and a good coach on the field. His Recruiting was a bit spotty though he was probably not as bad as everyone one thought he was in that area.

He was the first of the A&M pipeline to State followed by Sherrill and more recently Vic Schaefer.

Can't believe A&M has a coaching pipeline to anywhere. Poor Moo State.

Bellards mentor Darrell Royal was at MSU 2 years b4 getting the Texas job.

Royal said he wanted to stay at MSU for the long haul if they would have committed to him in return.
