He punched offensive co-ord. Both of his kids coached at uc. RIP LUV YA BLUE!

My favorite coach of all time. When he was head coach of the Eagles, everyone in this town couldn't wait for Sunday! He never won a playoff game here but he's still talked about as one of the greatest head coaches they ever had. R.I.P.

And the best talent evaluator this town has ever saw.

William Perry better shape up or he is going to be next.

Fridge is in his office -- that is, he's in his white Hummer H2, parked in the driveway of a ramshackle house on Ridgewood Lane in Aiken. It's 6 p.m., early April, 72 degrees outside, and 10 or more people hang around the SUV as if it's a tiki hut on a beach. Fridge is tipping back a beer and appears to be a tad inebriated, louder than usual, more demonstrative.
...
Despite all the tumult, this is pretty much what Fridge does every day now: hang out with people who lack apparent jobs or places to be, shoot the breeze and drink. He's got his own vodka cup. Maybe it's not that much different from what high-class retirees do at the 19th hole of country clubs, calling it socializing rather than wasting away. The thing is, Fridge can't move from his driver's seat. His car reeks of urine because he sometimes can't control his bladder, sometimes doesn't care. And there's not a medical journal on diabetes or the central nervous system anywhere that recommends alcohol consumption of this frequency for good health.

Defense makes football great! Buddy will forever be remembered. RIP

that's right, it was "coordinator on coordinator" violence.... pardee was the head coach, I think.....

and the Derrick Doll version.... (kinda sucks, but, for reasons set forth in the editorial note below, I have a soft spot,... well, uh.... actually,... uh, .... a "hard spot" for those babes.....

and on an editorial note, I banged a Derrick Doll, I believe the "head" doll, during spring break in Port A back in the 1985-86 time frame..... her first name was Debbie, last initial "N."

RIP Buddy,
At least I'll remember you with one of your favorite quotes, “Coaches didn’t like it because it made them look bad. We hit a lot of quarterbacks, and that was one of the things coaches were a little tender about.”

Will miss you alot

[Bluehorseshoe]

One of the most classless guys ever. Sorry.
