Maybe not, but that was the biggest change in the 1960’s in CFB. I am reminded that GT recruited the first black QB at a major college in the south, and her president stood up to the segregationist GA governor by playing Pitt in the 1956 Sugar Bowl, thus participating in the first integrated football game in the Deep South. That was not the issue. Calculus was an issue, but that change had happened in the late 1950’s well prior to our departure. Dodd was, however, trying to help the recruiting deficits he was experiencing and the SEC’s tendency to abuse recruiting. It backfired, and the timing vis. the coming influx of media dollars was bad, but how could you know?</p></blockquote><p></p>
