Texas A&M hires Auburn Track and Field Coach Leroy Burrell to replace Pat Henry

He’s pretty damn good. I wanted him to replace Shaver when he was at Houston. But yeah, there is no replacing Pat Henry. Burrell will do well at A&M though. Elite sprints and hurdles coach.

Pat Henry is irreplaceable, I hope he has a great retirement.

(my own) CSB ... he recruited me to come to UH when he was there, had Superbowl party at his house for the recruits. It was the Undefeated Pats VS Giants/Tyree helmet-catch-game. But the part I remember most is that 4x100 World Record - they were each given a 1/4Lb of solid gold engraved, commemorating the WR... as a 17YO high schooler, it's always stuck with me just how dense/heavy solid gold is.

but, to answer the Ag's questions - he's a real good guy. Was successful at UH while it was really just considered a mid-major in C-USA at the time.

Track and Field...can't say I follow. I watch the Olympics and when my kid or nephews or nieces are particpating...but other then that it is very, very boring.
