Article about pregame prayer, mention of Frank Howard


Aug 24, 2016, 11:10 AM

The colorful Frank Howard at Clemson had a player who became a minister. One fall, the reverend returned for a campus visit and met with a coffee club at a local motel in Clemson where Coach Howard and buddies convened each day. The player turned minister obviously had a sense of humor when he told Coach Howard that he heard God’s name mentioned on the practice field more than at seminary.

That "local motel" was the Holiday Inn on the lake.

It's torn down now, but it used to be one of the 2 "bigger" hotels in Clemson. I tended bar there on and off for about 2 or 3 years. Every day Coach Howard and his coffee clutch would come in and hang out and BS for a while.

The best discussion I remember was Coach Howard and Danny arguing about who had more players turn pro. That kind of stuff seemed pretty normal back then, but now its weird to think of the legends I saw almost everyday.
