Saw the tribute on FOX SPORTS last week to him (I guess a replay of a previous event).  Certainly was well respected by his peers and former players.  Condolences to his family and friends.

One of the great alltime high school coaches in Texas.

I had the honor of being a student trainer at Westfield High School when he was football coach there.  He was always a respected and humble man.  May God bless his family in their time of loss.
