I remember the article about the activities of Bobby Collins and Jacki Sherrill on the day when Ball signed his national LOI. He was mentioned prominently as were the private planes used by both coaches going around the state to get signatures.

It is always fun to read enthusiastic comments by a former player. Congratulations to Ball for his business success and HOF selection.

I use to see him in the cafeteria with two trays! It was a pleasure watching him play!

hard to believe it's true but i heard during his nfl playing days, he could stand under the rim and dunk with no run at 6'0", 320 or so. really incredible
