I did play basketball. Last year I gave my jersey to Coach at SEBC. Not sure how I ended up with a jersey???. Randy Long was coach and my point guard was Jim Meador. Jim was obviously the go-to-guy, not me. Dawn was a cheerleader.

Played from 1969-1973 under harry Word & Randy Long. I remember one game I fouled out with 5 minutes left, found out Norman outscored me for the game 31 to 30 - Rats! Many good memories!

I played basketball (so to speak) on some of those early teams with Norman. I remember the long van rides to places like Piedmont, NC and Toccoa, GA. I also remember us being the "homecoming" team at several places. Somehow a $3.99 steak and egg meal at Waffle House after those games made the loss seem lighter. As a player, my best years were under Alan Biddle and Norman Gillaspie. Both of these coaches knew how to get the best from me and gave me the confidence I needed. They were the kind of coaches that could get guys like me to play beyond our lever of ability. Sadly, most of those times were interrupted by my inability to properly blend my campus activites and my studies. Enjoyed it greatly, however people still don't believe me if I tell them I played some college basketball - HA!
