return for a touchdown during that 66 A&M game.

Posted: Wed Mar 31, 2021 8:13 pmJerry LeVias was a nightmare to many teams that year. Older Aggies here in Navasota fuss about the "black kid from Beaumont" that tore them up that game.
One was a "GA" (before there were GAs) and claimed he never saw a faster guy than LeVias. He said you could "hear him as he cut through the air and ran by the sideline"

LeVias was one heck of a player and that SMU defense was pretty stout. Jerry sold me my first Lexus, don't know whether to cheer him or boo him either!
