I just watched the ACC network

And the show about the great coaches in the ACC and couldn’t help but remember those times in the mid 60’s. There was some great team and players and coaches in those days. My Clemson wasn’t one of them!
They showed a lot of film about the great Bones McKinney and what a great man and Christian he was. I couldn’t help but remember the last time I saw Mac Kinney. He came into an ABC store in Friendly Shopping Center one Saturday morning and was so drunk I have no idea how he got there alone, I couldn’t help but smile knowing this phony had duped so many people. Many who still revere him. Things are not always what you think.
I mentioned this episode to several guys I knew who were WF fans and they knew I wasn’t making this story up.
Go Tigers.

I think many aren’t sure of what evil is !!!! Robbing, cheating and stealing is evil to me but it’s good business to many who I have met.
I’ve learned the hard way that .... faith has a price tag!

When I received my degree from Clemson University I was 5’ 7” and tipped the scales at a great 135 pounds in 1964!
Big time basketball wasn’t a part of my resume. But there was a kid in town named Maravich who was a great scorer!

I don’t remember that.
Even with my ‘small stature’ I did hang around the gym when I had an afternoon without a lab (rarity) and got into several basketball games with some football players. I should have known better!!! One game I played in was against Charlie Waters who was visiting the school before becoming a star player. I’m lucky to have survived those scrimmages,
