Somebody help me out. Didn't Coach Bob Bradley write a book about Coach Howard? For some reason I think he did. He was the go to source for Coach Howard before he passed away.

I have a copy of the book - Frank Howard - signed by both of them! Howard was a few months older than my dad; so he signed dad's book "Tom. just a spring chicken."

Bob Bradley was the sports information director, not a coach.

I am aware of that, but some of us called him coach out of respect.

When asked by the press how he prepared his team for the speed of Oklahoma's running backs one year, he said, "I took them over to Darlington to watch a race."

I first time I saw Coach Howard was at the old Clemson Post Office in July 1855. And the first words out of his mouth, "How you doing, good buddy"? That was his usual greeting.
