I saw this in the Dallas Morning News obits today. There was a poster named "Paul Hug" back on the original PonyFans or whatever the original SMU football message board was called. This must be him. Rest in Peace.

The guy on ponyfans wasn't the "real" Paul Hug. Paul was our chapter advisor at the Phi lodge after Hugh King stepped down, but Paul was a good guy. I'm wondering if the ponyfans Paul Hug will ever be back in light of this very unfortunate news. To the real Paul Hug, you'll be missed.

Wasn't Paul Hug on the message board friends with RichAlum?
