If Frank Howard were still here

he would be rolling over in his grave if he saw DRAD up there taking the tiger paw off Memorial Stadium.
It's the equivalent of New Spring taking down the 24 X 36 selfie of Perry in the atrium and replacing it with a painting of Moses parting the Red Sea

Ouch. I thought you were going to remind me of those 2-9 seasons that we enjoyed back in our glory days. I loved Frank Howard as there is none that compare, but those games, sitting in pouring rain, cheering your heart out hoping to get out of the cellar in the ACC were hard to swallow. This flashback made my heart skip a beat or two.

or never knew of the academic restrictions Frank and all of the the ACC faced for many years when recruiting against the SEC and other conferences. It took going the court to even things up.

Just remember beating Maryland 40-0 in rain instead of the Auburn, Georgia, Uof5c games in ‘69.

Uh, where else would he be? Somebody put him in a casket years ago, and I don't see even a healthy 110 year old digging his way out.

I like your style.
A healthy 110yo would not escape... but a zombie might, so always make sure and doubletap

Are you implying an empty casket was placed in the ground back in 1996? I wasn't there, so I can't confirm.
Just trying to provide an assist for the OP.

But he was AD then and was very taken w the helmet prototype they showed him apparently. Of course there was no upper deck upon which to attach the paw.
