I actually respected the man and the way he represented his team and his school during his match-ups when the Cats and Utes had a few year rivalry. He took a lot of kids who no one wanted at the big schools and turned them into extremely talented teams. He battled his weight for as long as we ever saw him, which ultimately broke down his body. May he rest in peace.

Somehow I think he'd be fine with the joke about how having to play the Cats took years off of his life. He always had a great sense of humor and made a lot of jokes about himself in his press conferences after those games...

Did he ever get a house or did he always live in a hotel like he did at Utah?
